"Unresolved Contracts: Delays in Signing Top 2023 NFL Draft Picks and Rookies"

The signing of top 2023 NFL draft picks has been delayed, with only one of the top five picks, Will Anderson, having signed his rookie contract. The primary sticking point in negotiations is the payment schedule of the signing bonus, with players seeking lump sum payments rather than installments. Quarterbacks Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud, and Anthony Richardson are among the unsigned picks, with Young having the most leverage to negotiate a lump sum payment and no offsets. Stroud's best strategy is to wait and see what happens with Young's contract before finalizing his own deal.
