83. "I'd probably go with a 4-year rookie deal, no RFA" In response to In response to 80
Just for the simple fact that most of the top prospects are coming into the league at age 19 or 20, and a lot of the time they don't really start becoming what teams envision them to be by year 3. And for a team that gets that type of player, they've usually hit rock-bottom and it takes three years to put together some semblance of a time on the rise. So the potentially team would be moving in the right direction just as the player is an URFA. Giving the team that extra year seems reasonable.
