In addition to the signing bonus, the Patriots have fully guaranteed $200,000 of the $390,000 base salary Demps would earn if he makes the 53-man roster. If Demps does not make the team, he'd still get that money. The total of $211,000 in guaranteed money is the second-largest sum made to a 2012 undrafted free agent, exceeded only by the $214,000 that the Dallas Cowboys guaranteed offensive lineman Ronald Leary. |

I wonder who gets the $85 signing bonus. |
I'd pay Mike Rivera $85 to leave town and never come back. |
More fool you for over-paying, considering his chances of making the roster he'd probably do it for a bus ticket and a packet of gum.
