All hearsay until we hear it from the horses mouth

There are as many positives as there are negative reports about the progress of negotiations.

Well, Judge Bye did say today that both sides should negotiate because he feels neither side will like the three Judge panel ruling. I don't know how both side will not like the ruling considering they are basically going to either uphold Judge Nelson's ruling or not. I didn't think they could come up with a third option.

If it happens, it will be a last minute agreement to avoid judge Bye's ruling. The players don't want a ruling and neither do the owners, but it forces the owners to actually try to make a deal, whereas previously they've just made outrageous demands and labeled it "negotiations".

the third option is probably the ones that make the lawyers happy...though they always seem to win out in these type of issues.

BTW, Kraft was right. Take the lawyers out of the room and there is significant progress in negotiations.

And D.Smith has been as pure as the driven snow?

I don't care who wins here. As long as there is a livable salary cap, rookie cap, and football. I'm not invested emotionally or otherwise in one side or another.

I don't ever want to see the NFL turn into MLB where some teams go out and try to buy championships every years and some teams won't spend a dime and don't care where they end up.

[QUOTE=PATRIOTSFANINPA;2564441]Dan Snyder still has to live within the salary cap. The difference is he tries to win with a handful of big names, as opposed to a roster full of solid players. He really doesn't spend any more on players than anyone else does, over the long haul.
