You cant pay everyone you cant have a 53 man roster of people on 2nd deals.  unless they are all bad and accepting vet min

players on rookie contracts is like the potatoes of the team compare to the steaks of the big $$$ stars...

you need them both to make it all work.    And when you are a good team Top 5 scoring D  its hard for young guys to get playing time cause the vets are holding it down...

I guess if people really want to see our rookies contribute more year 1 we have to go back to being a bottom feeder desperate for talent...

We are not that team anymore. so the situation has changed and the need for instant impact rookies has changed.

Which is paying off well, when you look at the drafting and development of players like Iloka, Williams, and even Dunlap.
