## Resource

Raiders rookies Mendoza, Crawford, and McCoy are stuck in contract limbo—no games played, no deals signed. Mendoza’s issue? His signing bonus is paid in installments, not a lump sum, a minor cash-flow tweak. McCoy, a top talent who fell to the fourth round, wants a deal closer to his original draft value, not just minimum salary. Crawford’s waiting to see if other third-rounders land guaranteed money, hoping to use that as leverage. Rookie contracts are usually standard, but timing and bonus structure are the real battlegrounds—hope they get sorted before camp.
