Draft rules under fire in football agent and judge clash
In San Francisco Judge W T Sweigert calls the NFL draft rule patently unreasonable for allowing a perpetual hold on a player who cannot reach terms with a drafting club. He suggests a fixed signing window, perhaps six months, opposed by owners who fear a two year limit. The piece notes Namath’s May 1 free agency and Rozelle Rule repeal as impacts.

Rozelle Rule trial opens in federal court arena
The NFL Rozelle Rule case goes to trial in Minneapolis before U S District Judge Earl R Lawson. The suit by the NFL Players Association seeks to declare the rule illegal under antitrust laws and to award damages to 16 plaintiffs including Alan Page Nate Wright Ken Bowman and Marlin Briscoe. The action argues the rule limits a player's market options by requiring compensation to the former team when a free agent signs elsewhere. Trial may be lengthy with up to 75 witnesses and will proceed without a jury.
