OWNERS APPROVE PROPOSED CBA; PLAYER VOTE NEXT

Written by  I Dig Sports

NFL owners on Thursday accepted the negotiated terms of a new proposed
collective bargaining agreement, sending the vote to players ahead of a
potential agreement between the sides.

All 32 owners met Thursday in New York City for an update on the current
proposal.

Three-fourths of the owners had to approve the CBA for it to be ratified. While
owners were not unanimous in their approval, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter,
the proposal still garnered enough support to pass.

"Following more than ten months of intensive and thorough negotiations the NFL
Players and clubs have jointly developed a comprehensive set of new and revised
terms that will transform the future of the game, provide for players -- past,
present, and future -- both on and off the field, and ensure that the NFL's
second century is even better and more exciting for the fans," the league said
in a statement.

"The membership voted today to accept the negotiated terms on the principal
elements of a new Collective Bargaining Agreement. The Players Association would
also need to vote to approve the same terms for there to be a new agreement.
Since the clubs and players need to have a system in place and know the rules
that they will operate under by next week, the membership also approved moving
forward under the final year of the 2011 CBA if the players decide not to
approve the negotiated terms. Out of respect for the process and our partners at
the NFLPA, we will have no further comment at this time."

NFLPA team player reps and the NFLPA's executive council, which had been
planning a Friday meeting in Washington, D.C., on the topic, are now planning to
hold a conference call Friday instead of meeting face-to-face. That call could
result in a vote on whether to approve the owners' offer or reject it.

If two-thirds of the NFLPA's player reps approve the deal, it would move on to
the next stage, in which all NFL players would vote and a simple majority would
be required to approve it.

Sources previously told ESPN that the proposed CBA would allow the league to
expand the regular season from 16 games to 17 games at some point in the next
four years (although no sooner than 2021) in exchange for financial and other
concessions the players have sought in negotiations. One concession is that the
preseason will be shortened, sources said.

In addition, sources said that starting in 2020, the playoff field would be
expanded to seven teams from each conference, and only one team from each
conference would receive a first-round bye as opposed to the two that currently
do.



The league's desire to expand the regular season has been met with harsh
opposition from many players, who view an expanded season as an unnecessary
increase in the risk to players' health and safety. But union leaders have
touted to players the benefits of the proposed new deal, which includes a higher
percentage of league revenue going to players, improvements in the drug policy
and discipline policy, higher minimum salaries, higher per-team spending floors
and relaxed offseason work rules.

In addition, players with existing contracts that stretch into 17-game seasons
would have their deals amended to account for it, a source close to the
negotiations said. Each payer in such a situation would receive a raise
commensurate with one game check based on their negotiated per-game rate, but
that amount would not exceed $250,000 per season.

Information from ESPN's Dan Graziano and Adam Schefter was used in this report.
