The boost to Walker's bank account came from the top of the NFL draft boards.

The value for Jaguars DE Travon Walker’s contract has now been officially set: he’ll sign a 4-year, $37,372,621 fully-guaranteed deal that includes a $24,360,088 signing bonus and a 5th-year team option.

The contract details for every draftee are laid out in the collective bargaining agreement.

Walker emerged as the favorite to land with Jacksonville by the time of the draft. It was the end of the rise for the Georgia edge-rusher.

Walker wasn't even a first-round pick in Bleacher Report's mock draft. He moved up to 14th after the conclusion of the NFL Scouting Combine and then to 3rd as April began.

If Walker had been a top-five pick instead of first, there wouldn't be a financial gulf.

It would've made a difference if the first round had ended in the late stages. He will get $12.9 million with a signing bonus.

It is not known if Walker has signed his first contract with the Jaguars.

The negotiations are easy because of the wage scale. Sometimes, offset language can be a sticking point between the team and the player. The language allows a team to get some money back after it releases a player.

That wasn't included in Lawrence's deal with Jacksonville, so he won't have to worry about it.
