I think the NFL and college football should adopt the college baseball approach.
1. You can go after HS
2. You can go JUCO and go after year 1 or year 2
3. If you sign with a D1 school then you're there 3 years (unless you turn 21 before your 2nd year)


Um, except for the after high school part, this is exactly how football works. You can go after your HS class would have finished their 3rd year of college. Guice is in that year now.

As far as going to the NFL after high school, good luck with that. You can probably count on one hand the number of players that were both physically and mentally ready for the NFL at 18.

Only if you had no fingers on that hand. I can't think of a single player ever that could have survived in the NFL straight out of High School.

true, but this just further proves that there is no need for a rule against a player trying. if the player isnt ready the market will bear this truth.
