I thought i heard Cam Newton got 4 yrs and 22 mil last year..Luck would barely get more than that...Dont quote me but that is floating around my head for some reason

Taking that into account it shouldnt be too bad even for kalil at 4..which means teams can spend more money on free agents and retaining their own players

Smart move and good for football if ya ask me...ridiculous what some of these guys that have never played a snap are guaranteed...Ryan Leafs of the world can no longer rape pocketbooks like they used to.

4 years, just over 22 mil according to rotoworld, the official numbers this year are going to be released sometime soon here after the draft.

i wonder what Kalil loses in salary by being the #4 pick instead of the #3.

not that i imagine he cares a lot about it at all.



QB Brock Osweiler is from my hometown here and was picked about 55th by Denver. i wonder what that kid is looking at for moolah.

Contracts aren't going to change much from 2011, and the difference between Marcell Dareus and A.J. Gree in 2011 was only $700,000. Both contracts were fully guaranteed, where Dareus got $20.4 million with a $13.34 million signing bonus, and A.J. Green got $19.7 million with a $12.8 million signing bonus.

As for brock, last year's 55th pick signed a 4 year $3.5 million contract.
