Every player should want a guaranteed contract. Top players in baseball and basketball have a little more negotiating clout to get them, because individual players make more difference to a team's success and because careers are longer. NFL careers are so short that many more football contracts are signed when no one has a particularly good idea whether the player will be any good at all.
