With a lockout looming, NFL rookies could lose out on a lot.
With just days left to come up with a new collective bargaining agreement, the NFL is taking every step to prepare for a lockout. Included in these preparations is a fund to pay players if there is a lockout.
Seven days of mediated negotiations might not have been enough to come up with a new collective bargaining agreement for the NFL. There is less than a week before the current agreement expires.
The biggest issue threatening the next football season is the division of revenue. Neither side will budge, hoping to take a bigger piece of the pie. If there are financial pressures like the owners claim, showing some proof might help ease the players union's stiff stance.
The NFL is facing a possible lockout at the end of next week and only little progress has been made. Thursday, the NFL and players union took a dispute over money made from broadcasting rights before a federal judge.
The NFL and the players' union concluded a week of federally mediated face-to-face meetings to try and reach an deal before the collective bargaining agreement expires next week.

A cancellation of all, or part, of the 2011 NFL season would be devastating for fans.
The NFL, players union and federal mediator worked over 20 hours throughout the weekend to get a new labor deal started. With the current contract expiring in March, it's no surprise so many hours were put in over the weekend.
With just two weeks left on the current NFL labor deal, progress needs to be made fast. The owners and players union could be making that progress now with a federal mediator in the mix.
On Friday, the NFL and the NFL Players' Union will attempt to solves their differences and find middle ground regarding the labor negotiations that are threatening a lockout of the 2011 season.
A report surfaced a few weeks ago that the NFL players' union was discussing the idea of boycotting the NFL's Scouting Combine. Today, via the NFLPA's Twitter account, that report was denied.
The outlook for the 2011 NFL season may have just gotten a little brighter, both the NFL and players' union have agreed to mediation in their labor negotiations.
The fans want there to be football in 2011, and so do the current players. It's the owners who are threatening to keep the season from happening. And now some of the game's greats are voicing their opinions.
March 3 will be the day that the collective bargaining agreement between the NFL and NFL players union expires, and the NFL owners are expected to hold a meeting that very same day.
The NFL labor negotiations are sure to intensify over the next two weeks as the two sides inch closer to the expiration of the current collective barraging agreement.
While the NFL owners and the NFLPA are inching closer and closer to a lockout for next season, it is easy for fans to feel anger towards a league that is forgetting the people are what made the NFL what it is today.
