The choice of the second round of the Broncos, RJ Harvey, awaits the money guaranteed before signing a contract
The choice of the second round of the Broncos, RJ Harvey, awaiting the money guaranteed before signing a contract, originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
When the Broncos de Denver selected the ball carrier from the University of Florida Centrale RJ Harvey as a second round choice this year, the 24 -year -old was delighted. “This call was the happiest moment of my life,” said Harvey, after getting the news. “It’s a blessing. I am so excited.”

But six weeks later, the All-American of the third team of 2024 who ranked second in Big 12 with 1,577 yards on the ground has still not signed a contract with the Broncos, according to Jon Heath de USA Today Broncoswire.
The Holdup has nothing to do with the money that Denver offered. Based on its draft, the value of the Harvey contract is set at $ 7,354,592 over four years, according to Place.
Special details must however be negotiated, in particular, perhaps the most important, the amount of money which will be guaranteed.
And this is the hanging up, according to the Broncoswire report. But the problem is not limited to Denver. According to information from The football database30 of the 32 choices of second round remained not signed on June 2.

If broncos fans are looking for someone to blame, look no further than the first offices of Cleveland and Houston Texans. These two teams held the first two choices in the second round. The Browns took the secondary of the UCLA Carson Schwesinger, and the Texans, then selected the receiver of the Iowa State Jayden Higgins.

The two teams gave their entirely guaranteed second round choices, which the initiate of ESPN NFL Mike Reiss called “a rarity”. Generally, fully guaranteed contracts are reserved for the first rounds only.
But with the new preceding set, it seems that the other 30 seconds also want fully guaranteed offers.
“The agents for all the other players chosen in the second round undoubtedly also want fully guaranteed contracts for their customers,” wrote Heath. “So, until this trend is broken, Harvey is probably not in a hurry to be the first second round choice in the class to be satisfied less.”
With Harvey being described as the best ball carrier in the draft outside the overall choice n ° 6 Ashton Jeanty, should his uninformed broncos fans not sign?

Probably not. Most experts expect Harvey and other seconds who end up signing. In the meantime, however, it may take a certain patience while waiting for the dead end by the browns and the Texans to be resolved.
