    What if both luck and mallet don't come out

    Luck is a redshirt sophomore, isn't mallet a junior?

    So what happens if both of them don't come out.....then we are screwed

    I do not want locker

    what makes you think he is "definitely coming out" a lockout is looming, not an ideal year to come out....

    We should be looking for a FA vet regardless of who's available in the draft.

    this team has PLENTY of holes. If those guys don't come out- or if they're not all they're cracked up to be- getting a stud LT or LB with our first rounder is fine with me.

    ehh if we have the top 1-3 picks I would be pretty disappointed with a linebacker or a LT unless they are Elite

    I would look at some one like Gabbert (also a junior) or Devlin.

    One or both will come out... I will be shocked if neither does.

    Don't forget that chances are very good for a rookie cap and it would make little difference in that case to stay.

    look at it if your an agent, you want your client to come out with this mess of all the new union negotiations or whatnot going on....

    Right now I dont see a player at either position being worthy of a top 3 pick.

    Decertification means no lockout as well.

    I thought about this. Since there may (probably) be some sort of rookie cap in 2012, doesn't it make more sense for highly touted Juniors to come out this year with no cap in place in order to capture the last of the huge guaranteed paydays?

    If it means a guaranteed 50mil by coming out this year for say someone like Luck, as opposed to say a 10mil/ 3year cap in 2012..I'm pretty sure Luck as smart as he is is coming out.

    I think, and anyone can correct me on this, that they still hold the draft and would still sign the rookies to contracts. Since the contracts usually get signed in July, I would be shocked if they dont have the new CBA by then. And even if they dont, they still have the rights to the players.

    With no new CBA, they probably wont get contracts done. Especially since they usually dont sign them until July anyways. The draft will still happen and the teams will still have the rights to the players they draft. And the new CBA looks like it will include a rookie cap.

    I guess I feel like the only way the 2011 rookie class gets a big payday is if they dont add a rookie cap to the new CBA and thats unlikely.
