What I'm really curious to find out, but continue to come up empty on any solid information is;  What percentage of all players drafted make it to a 2nd contract?  Between superstar contracts continuing to climb, and league minimums continuing to rise as well, many teams are simply hamstrung by the cap to keep a percentage of players on rookie deals.

Yep. Teams need a number of players on rookie contracts to make the numbers work. Vet minimum keeps rising and it's pricing guys out of the market.
