There's a lot of spin out there about free-agent contracts, but there's a big difference betweent the worlds Ryan Cook and all the other Lobos fighting for spots on NFL rosters are about to enter.
Here's a story I wrote for today's Trib about the gap in pay and job security facing the Lobos gunning for free-agent contracts.
I was one of many people who were surprised more Lobos weren't drafted. But Mike Mohoric's agent, Bert Briones, wasn't shocked. He pointed out at least six New Mexico players have shots of making NFL rosters.
"That's a pretty good showing for players from a middle of the road conference on a team with a middle of the road record," Briones said.
What do you think? Did the Lobos get a fair shake in the draft?
