Players only have like 4 months or something like that to sign before going back into the draft.

Usually players in the first couple rounds will sign if the dollars are right for their talent level. If not, they'll refuse to sign, and try to get drafted higher next time.

If I recall correctly, players that don't sign in the 1st round round, you get a pick that is in between the first and 2nd round (2nd rounders, you get a pick between the 2nd and 3rd rounds, but after that there's no compensation)
