Not sure what to think about this.

I like the idea of young guys getting experience they wouldn't otherwise get.

But how do you guarantee the consistency of coaching?

If the NFL team teaches a particular route or technique one way, will the aaf coach stunt his progress if he teaches the same technique/route differently than his NFL team?  I'm sure if players are assigned, the coaching will factor into who is assigned where.

Will there be enough teams/roster spots to accommodate the demand?

What about the risk of injury?

What about player compensation?  If NFL players get assigned by NFL teams to AAF teams, will they be paid their NFL salaries while there or at the aaf rate?  Will time in the AAF count towards player pensions if NFL teams assign players there?
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!
