Who's fault is the Injury Waiver fiasco?

That's Mr. Riff-Raff to you!
I say it's your fault Section!
Only because I believe the NFL should already have made a policy on this to protect both the players and the owners.

I'm a uncle's monkey??
My 2 cents. both are at fault, I think it's stupid of the Cards not to pay the waiver, and I think it's stupid of the player not to pay for the waiver.
If this waiver insurance is so important and the Cards aint willing to do it, why doesnt the player step up and get it and participate???
If the player wont participate without it why wont the Cards step up and get it so they can get the rookies in participation???
Seems to me both sides are screwed up on the deal, just my opinion of course.

I guess the best way to put it is...
If you've proved you're a successful franchise, by all means be a trail-blazer and set the negotiating standard for the rest of the league.
But if - over time - you've generally sucked, it's flat out dumb to "stand on principle" when nearly every other team in the league has an injury waiver and, therefore, their top rooks in camp.
I can picture the GM's of all the other NFL teams lining up on the phone (laughing up their sleeves) to tell Graves and Bidwill "Way to go, dude. Thanks for taking a stand!"
From both a football and a PR standpoint - the priority of having both top rooks in camp should have been way higher than winning any phyrric negotiating victories.
And speaking of PR - how about the exquisite timing of pissing off ASU two days before Fan Day at mini-camp! Why did they have to create more negative non-football controversy now of all times?
