This is roughly the slot money for the 55 overall pick.

Good for him!

Lol at anyone that thought it'd be better for him if he came back to try and be a first round pick next year

This is what leverage gets you and why so few drafted juniors return, regardless of the slot value at the position they are drafted.

He did nothing but display his potential. Glad he is capitalizing off of it

That'll take the sting out of falling so inexplicably far in the draft. Proud of him. He earned every penny. Kid was an absolute beast second half of the season.

He could have

May have made a little more money on initial deal and still got NIL money

He could have gone either way, no bad decisions for him. And he went to a competent organization

Sad to see him go, but so happy for him.

Go and make us even prouder, Anthony.

Thank you for what you did to bring another trophy to its rightful home.

I mean shite it could have been hell Kade got 8 mil. It would have been ludicrous and financially unintelligent to take that risk for him though so yea he had to go.
