What’s guaranteed money for draftees? Is it lottery or entire first round?

I was curious last night and found this article that shares some general information which was insightful (as it points out the trend now is even second round folks get taken care of) https://collegebasketball.nbcsports...aranteed-contracts-at-exceedingly-high-rates/

SOMEWHAT related, I saw someone make the comment "depends on him and his family" and it's probably more true for football because the money isn't as guaranteed, but sometimes it seems there is a narrative out there that folks do this to take care of their family. While I get the sentiment, I always think of a mid-late football draftee....not a lot guaranteed...maybe makes a team for a couple years...while a lot of money, after taxes and hopefully saving, there isn't a lot left.
