So there is not a noticeable difference in the rookie contracts you found pre-CBA and post-CBA. The CBA did not markedly affect the guaranteed money late-round picks receive. Hell, the differences in signing bonus don't even appear to be rising with standard inflation.
I thought the whole argument was there's now no incentive to stay and improve your draft status because of the caps put on the first few rounds? Not that the lower round picks now make any less.
Not real clear what you were pointing out here or what it was in reference to honestly, so maybe agreeing ?

there is still a pretty big difference in a 3rd round contract and a 5th round contract, but guys like chris faulk, trai turner, hilliarrd, ford, ware, wing, etc aren't getting a 3rd round contract
they don't play valued positions, have maxed out/are injured, and may not get enough PT to even matter (and it makes more sense to just leave instead of transferring)
