For an all in of around $4 million (assuming he is not cut before any of those seasons).
Lower in the round would, of course, make less.
The salary drop off from the top of the first round into the latter part of the first round, and into the second, is amazing.

He's referencing Cassel's contract so I don't really know how Patrick Chung is relevant.
