Message: [QUOTE="AngryOtto, post: 4925927, member: 7633"] The three year window is to point out that most guys do not make significant money until after three years. First, second and third rounders do make decent signing bonuses. The point is that every player thinks they are going to make the nfl stick and be rich. A lot do not focus on getting the best education or a degree and merely focus more on a school with the belief it is their ticket to the nfl and riches. A degree from a good school with connections can be a lot more valuable than a couple of years in the nfl. However a lot of players no longer see the value in a degree and nil has diminished the value even more. I’m sure telling people you played in the nfl is awesome but it does not mean you will be wealthy long term versus getting an education and using your degree. [/QUOTE]
