The NFL went to the current Rookie contract/slotting system for a reason, too many teams were getting burned by outrageous amounts of money due to guys that weren't on their teams and producing, thus screwing up the salary cap system.  The NFL worked long and hard to achieve a system where pretty much any well managed team could go from last place to competitive with just one year turnover.  Whereas Baseball with their unlimited spending has successfully made it nearly impossible for small market teams to build and maintain a competitive team and keep it together for a string of seasons.
