Offset language tends to be the big sticking point for first rounders. It is a provision that allows the team to not pay a player if they cut him and another team signs him. The other thing they can negotiate is how the signing bonus gets paid out. During the Bosa negotiations the Chargers were trying to hold back part of his signing bonus until after year 1 rather than giving it all to him up front.
Basically it's all the little details that go beyond the big numbers you see when they sign.
