FWIW the NBA decided to implement a 1-year removed from HS rule

so now kids can't make the same decision Moses and Kobe did. For the record, I do agree with you that NFL should have its own minor league. Given that we live in a capitalistic society, I do understand why the NFL and the owners don't want to take on the additional cost. Why pay for the cow when you are already getting the milk for free?
