NFL owners are crying poor, that they are losing money. All well and good - maybe that's even true.

Players might agree to giving the owner more - but there's going to be a trade off. I'd bet on guaranteed salaries being put on the table. Those 'guarantees' might not hit any salary cap numbers (allowing all teams to be competitive) if a player has retired/is cut. But if the players are going to keep getting paid, I think that it's a reasonable alternative to allow the owners to keep a slightly larger share.
