In the four major US sports leagues, drafts are a form ofmonopsony power. Players can only play in the league for the teamthat drafted them for the first few years. As such, their salariesare artificially capped. Joe Burrow signed a 4 year/36 milliondollar contract with the Bengals after they picked him firstoverall in 2020. Had he been able to choose his team as a freeagent, the contract he signed would have likely been for 20-25million per year based on what most QBs are paid.
