*If it’s “slavery” to earn $10 million a year for playing a game, I would “get on that boat” too if I had the talent.*

And if someone else wanted to pay you $20 million? Where’s your freedom?

If the legality of the NFL draft were put in a courtroom I doubt you’d put a penny on the NFL winning.

My freedom would be to decline the $10 million offer and put myself out there in free agency. A person drafted by a sports team has agency. He can make choices. A slave does not have agency and cannot make choices without risking death. And while you're on your high horse about how being drafted by a sports team is somehow akin to slavery, try reading this article: Former NFL player tears into Colin Kaepernick for comparing NFL Draft to slavery: ‘Evil, anti-American spirit’
