In order for your first selection in the draft to suit up and play they have to be signed. This way your player knows how much money he will be guaranteed and how much he could actually make ina span of either 5 or 6 years. All players are under contract so they cant just walk off or quit at anytime or they will lose their money.

It means the guy they picked in the first round of the NFL draft was signed to a contract.

What up Matt H, For whatever reason the Magic have been somewhat insistent on keeping JJ. The last 2 years JJ has been asking for a trade because he was wasting way on the Magic bench- but the Magic have refused to trade him for some reason. Part of the reason it was reported that he wasn't getting playing time was that Stan Van Gundy was not pleased with Reddick's defense. Because of the lack of exposure i don't know that you would be able to get a first round pick for Reddick, but it'd be worth shopping around if you could get what you want. i think Orlando actually well keep Reddick and he may even have a shot to compete for the starting job at the 3. With Hedo Turkgolu announcing that he will opt out for free agency it's possible that Reddick takes the 3, Rashard goes to the 4, and the Magic try to obtain a true 4 and that would then make Reddick like a 6th man for the Magic (kind of like a Jason Kapono type player) who can fill in the gaps at the 2 and 3 positions. Damion James is going back to school but i think Taj Gibson would be a great pick-up... i'm actually hoping the Lakers could pick him up. Nickster

When u are drafted by an NFL team you sign a contract saying how long and how much pay you will recieve. In this case someone who was drafted in the first round of the draft.

Well this already being the start of the regular, It means you're already being a Dick and haven't anything yet on a Pro level. If you check the hold out history 95% of those guys get hurt within the first 6 games.

Nowadays it means mortgaging the franchise for a player that may be a total bust.
