Véget ért a Draft így a vezetők számára a következő nagy feladat, hogy aláírjanak a kiválasztott játékosainkkal. Az új kollektív szerződés miatt az utóbbi években felgyorsult a tárgyalási folyamat és a megváltozott szabályok szerint könnyebben meg lehet egyezni a játékosokkal. Az új CBA határozott keretek közé zárja, hogy az adott körben kiválasztott játékos mekkora újoncszerződést kaphat a csapatától. Már nem születhetnek Sam Bradford féle irreális szerződések.
Összehasonlíthatatlanul jobb helyzetben vagyunk tavalyhoz képest ugyanis csak 13.3 millió dollárnyi halott összeg terheli a fizetési sapkát a tavalyi 56 millió dollárhoz képest. A jelenleg szerződésben álló játékosokról az overthecap.com oldalon két listát vezetnek, külön a legjobb 51-ről és a teljes keretről. A TOP 51-es keret a következőképpen oszlik el:
Támadók (24 játékos): $43,826,884
Védők (24 játékos): $56,166,713
Speciális egység: $4,707,834
Hely a fizetési sapkában: $12.818.763
A jelenleg szerződésben álló játékosok szerződései a következőképpen épülnek fel:
