It's also part of the collective bargaining agreement signed with the NFL players association. That is why it will not stand. The NFLPA is attempting to winnow down job competition by colluding to exclude potential players.

Don't understand your comment....however, many players are very unhappy with Gene Upshaw, and the most recent contract and the salary cap..that's why so many veterans are being cut..the teams can't get them in under the cap..and the minimums for veteran players increase each year..

All unions do that (try working in a union shop in a union job title without paying the dues). If it got thrown out on that basis every single collective bargaining agreement in the country would be thrown out... maybe not a bad thing but something that definitely won't happen.
