All this league needs is to prove to the NFL that it can lure enough 18-21 year old talent that it's a viable option to become the NFL minor league. Then the NFL can pump enough money into it to sustain the league and pay each player $50,000 per year or whatever until they reach draft eligible status. If it's backed by the NFL then players would be willing to commit to it - right now there's little guarantee it would last more than a year so only delinquents are going to choose go into that league.
