Judge rules out college draft system for pro football
U S District Judge William B Bryant ruled the NFL draft violates antitrust law and must be replaced. He described the draft as an outright refusal to deal and a group boycott that stifles players ability to market their talents. The decision follows James Yazoo Smiths suit against the Redskins and NFL alleging damages and calls for a new compliant draft method.
