Personally, I think it is a great idea. I played in the traditional adult Semi-Pro leagues for 7 seasons. During that span I saw a lot of good, and some bad as well. One thing that I do know from my experiences, there are literally thousands upon thousands of good football players in America that would love a chance to continue developing their abilities after HS.
In my years in the leagues, I saw some incredible talent, some of them physically capable of competing for spots on teams that play their games on Sundays. A lot of these guys never got their chance to go to college for various reasons, be they academic or disciplinary, or life circumstance, or whatever. Let's just say that I've known plenty of quality athletes that would have loved to have had the opportunity to make 50K a year, playing a game that they were willing to risk injury for, to play for free.
