Seee...I'm glad someone else finally picked up on the most obvious BS in this whole Lesnar/NFL scenario. Brock last played football in what, high school? Seriously, I know Brock is a great athlete, but you don't one day just decide to become an NFL football player (we don't, in America, call them footballers). The Linebacker at the University of Auburn, Kevin Dansby, is 6-2', 240. Relatively similar to Brock's size. But he also runs a 4.6 40 and has made more tackles this year alone than Brock has made in his entire life. And he's being projected as a 6th round pick in this year's draft. Even if a team offered Brock to work out (knowing that he's too old to be considered a real "prospect"), even if by some miracle they took a flier(and it would be a miracle, since the NFL has a hard salary cap and every dollar they're giving him means they're not paying someone who can actually contribute),that Brock is a good enough athlete to develop into an NFL player someday he'd be making rookie minimum. Around 70K.
So would Brock really leave wrestling which has done so much for him to take a huge pay cut and become the scrub at the end of the bench? If all it took to play pro football was muscles, don't you think the XFL wouldn't have sucked?
