Ten Years Too Long

It's hard to get a good pulse on the status of the NFL new CBA to cover the next ten years. There are so many issues which could sink this. The duration seems too long in this day and age.

The average career is less than three years. Player compensation and post-career benefits are huge factor.

Are players making a big deal over the maximum paycheck for Game 17 is limited to $250,000? It seems like that could have been negotiated better.

I would understand if the players reject this proposal, but what is the alternative? It took all this time to get to this point.
