裡橖眻畦 Law students Jason Kaner 19, Eric Galko 17 and Jack Sexton 19 triumphed in the simulated contract negotiation, which used real-life scenarios and actual upcoming NFL free agents. The competition provided participants with the opportunity to sharpen their negotiation skills as well as their knowledge of NFL contracts.

Competing teams, who represented either the football team or the free agent, received a set of confidential objectives that served as guidelines for the negotiation. They were also provided with an Excel workbook that allowed them to quickly make calculations and determine whether or not the contract proposals met their requirements.

Industry expertsincluding representatives from the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Kansas City Chiefs, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneersserved as judges for each negotiation and concluded the competition with a discussion on relevant topics in the NFL.
