Cant remember the last time a draft started out this well for us.
Last year was pretty close. Williams was the only pick on day one and was expected.

Bradley the biggest concern now. He is still highly probably to sign unless he free falls.

So Miami can't take the Heat?

so that is the Minimum they can sign him for but they can go more if they are trying to get the guy to sign correct?

Yeah $600 or whatever slot is just isn't going to cut it. His bonus demands caused him to fall. Wouldn't be shocked to see him go undrafted now because it's just a waste of a pick. Wish he would have stuck with his UGA commitment but you guys are getting a good one

BA also has a neat feature that calculates the potential bonus for a particular draftee based on the bonus for players they've already signed and assuming the rest sign for slot. You can get an idea of how much they're saving, and how much over slot they could possibly go for that player.

he was telling all the guys that didn't get drafted today to relax, because it is just destiny for whatever organization picks you tomorrow.
hopefully Mac was too busy watching LSU highlights on youtube or on TD

There is no minimum. You add those slots to get the teams' total pool. If they go over the pool amount there are penalties. If they fail to sign a top 10 round pick they lose the dollar figure for that slot from their pool. For example they can't just decide not to sign picks 5-10 to offer extra to the others. They have to sign some to under slot deals to pay others over slot.
That's why it wouldn't be a surprise to see one or two of the players mentioned here in the top 10 if they are as hell bent on leaving as has been reported.

"He was just saying to let him know what I would do and give me a (draft) round that you would forego college," Bradley said. "I couldn't give him a number at the time, but as long as it's first- or second-round money, then we're good. Other than that, it's not worth passing up LSU."

For a young hitter with pro potential, Bradley understands what it would mean financially to be drafted early. However, if he doesn't like the compensation he's offered from the pro organization that drafts him, LSU Tigers head coach Paul Mainieri will be seeing him in Baton Rouge.
Bradley wasn't drafted in the first or second rounds, so the longer he stays available for MLB teams, as well as a decrease in expected compensation offered by the team that drafts him, the likelihood of him joining LSU for next season will keep increasing.
