One week after the league canceled its annual rookie symposium because of the owners' lockout of the players, the NFLPA has set up what it calls "The Business of Football, Rookie Edition" for Washington on June 28-29. Every drafted rookie -- all 254 of them -- is invited.

"We're doing this because it's the right thing to do," NFLPA spokesman George Atallah said.

The forum will cover financial education and planning, proper behavior on and off the field, and other information to prepare rookies for a future in the NFL.

"Great idea and I'm all for it," agent Drew Rosenhaus said in an email to the AP. "I'm glad the NFLPA stepped in & kept this concept going. It is important for these young men and now they won't miss out."
