Hours ahead of the start of rookie minicamp earlier in May, the Miami Dolphins announced that seven of their eight 2025 NFL draft picks signed their rookie contracts. The sole exception, second-rounder Jonah Savaiinaea, still participated in the camp, but remains unsigned more than a couple weeks later.
So what's the hold up?
It isn't just Savaiinaea. While over 200 of the 257 players selected in the 2025 NFL draft have signed contracts, almost every second-round pick remains unsigned.
