Per ESPN and PFT - this is a big move by NFL.
Basically it includes a 17 game regular schedule, which alot of players are against
Deadline to accept this deal is start of new season - March 18.
Current CBA runs out at end of 2020 season.
NFL has told the NFLPA that if they reject this deal, all talks will be tabled indefinately. Net, take it now, it isn't getting any better.
All reports have the NFL giving more financial benefits to players as well to sweeten the deal.
If it is rejected - look for there to be a lock out to start the 2021 season.
So if players really will eventually give on the 17 regular season games...then taking the deal now would work best.
