There’s lots of players who hold out or don’t sign. The thing that makes Elway and Eli stick out is they were #1 picks, meaning the team that drafted them had months to negotiate with them and figure out these guys didn’t want to be there and drafted them anyway. Because of the modified rules the team with the first pick gets it’s really on the team to pick a player who wants to be there, they actually get the freedom to find out.
