Getty D'Andre Swift is the latest in the line of great Georgia running backs.
While it does not come with same contract as hearing your name called on opening night, NFL draft picks in the second and third round will still land lucrative salaries for 2020. According to Over the Cap, the salaries for the second-round draft picks range from $1,579,416 to $952,995. Third-round pick salaries range from $899,198 to $818,073.
The day two selections in the second and third round will all receive four-year contracts. The top second-round pick will sign a deal estimated to be a four-year, $8.68 million contract which includes a $3.87 million signing bonus, per Over the Cap. The last pick of the second round has a four-year, $5.24 million contract with a $1.37 million signing bonus.
The top pick in the third round lands a four-year, $4.94 million contract with a $1.15 million signing bonus. Day two ends with ten compensatory picks that project to have a four-year, $4.49 million contract with a $832,292 signing bonus.
As the NFL enters the second day of the draft, there is still plenty of talent available, especially at wide receiver and running back. The offensive skill positions are one of the strengths of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Rookie Mini-Camps Will be Conducted Virtually in 2020
NFL coaches will not be able to have on-field workouts with rookie players right away like they do in a normal offseason. Instead, rookie mini-camps will be conducted virtually in the weeks to come. Vikings general manager Rick Spielman admitted that it is a bit unclear how things will work virtually.
“I don’t know when we’re going to be able to see these rookies or when we can get them on the field or what lies ahead,” Spielman told Vikings.com. “But I know next week we’ll start our virtual offseason program with our virtual meetings with the coaches and players, and then we’ll have a virtual rookie minicamp. I do know that with the time and energy that the coaches have put into this, as well as the scouts, that they’ll be able to get a head start at least virtually on learning the playbook and things like that.”
