Rookie holdouts are the dumbest holdouts. The big money is in your first free agency contract, being a rookie holdout is bad four your stats and bad for your image, both of which impede your big money contract. Every dollar these chumps gain now is going to cost them 10 in 4 years. Some folks think the NFL should adopt the NBA rookie contract method to end these holdouts, but I like the holdouts, they let us know who the total idiots are.
