Big difference, and I'm betting you actually knew this.
I don't know if this matters much or not. All they have to do is work out a contract for a player that's front loaded and long term friendly. To get a better grip on this though one would need to look at the numbers of top 5 rookie contracts to see how they're written. I guessing that the rookie contracts this year will be all about signing bonus and guaranteed money so it may be front loaded. That said I still wouldn't draft an OT with the 3rd pick this year.
