To clarify ... As @SI_PeterKing just tweeted ... League is very open to making rookie's Year 5 an option. Number for option is the problem.

Basically, Year-5-as-an-option is a way to bridge the 4/5-year divide. But on that one, the pricetag is a problem.

$34 million is still a LOT of money to hand out to . The rookie wage scale seems like it should be one of the easier topics to figure out
