Naylor thinks new NFL deal will only make things tougher for CFL.

Simple math says he might be right:
Rookie minimum for this year will jump USD$100K from USD$510K to USD$610K or roughly CDN$100K more than Mike Reilly's deal calls for. In 2030 minimum NFL rookie salary will be USN$1.065M.
Active game day rosters will go from 46 to 48 while the 53 will go to 55. Practice rosters will jump from 10 to 12 in 2020 & 2021 and to 14 in 2022. That amounts to 6 extra jobs per team by 2022 or 192 extra NFL football jobs between the active rosters and PR.
PR pay gets a spike too from USD$8K per week to USD$11.5K per week by 2022. That works out to USD$184K or pretty much $250K loonies.
While there is a possibility of a 17 game schedule it's not a totally done deal. The NFL has a 3 year window to act on that and it's expected they will.
Bottom line. More jobs and a much wider monetary gap.
