On Friday, the Green Bay Packers locked in seventh-round draft picks Michael Pratt and Kalen King. Pratt, a quarterback from Tulane, was the 245th pick overall, while King, a cornerback from Penn State, was the 255th.
Pratt's deal, as per Over the Cap, clocks in at about $4.1 million over four years, with a sweet signing bonus of around $86,000. King's deal mirrors Pratt's, also set at about $4.1 million over four years, with a signing bonus of about $80,000. In 2024, Pratt's cap number will be around $817,000, while King's will hover around $815,000.
Both Pratt and King hit the ground running in Green Bay, joining rookie minicamp right off the bat. NFL rookie contracts run for four years and follow a strict wage scale under the league's Collective Bargaining Agreement, meaning there's not much room for negotiation, especially for those picked later in the draft.
