quote:SFP, the RoT used to be "Stay in school" until you gain 1st round status or are done with eligibility. That was because 1st rounder got big bucks. That era is over. Disincentivizes players staying in school as long as they can make an NFL roster.
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.
