The 1st and 2nd rounders don't make near what they did a few years ago. A junior who is a 4/5th round projection doesn't see value in coming back when the best case scenario is him improving his stock and making another 1-200k his first few years. This isn't about what they pay the late round guys, it's the caps on the 1st rounders salaries.

Bingo. Capping the top rounds got rid of the carrot.
