Actually no!. IIRC last year the first 16-18 got all four years guaranteed. Where Hightower was picked the first 3 are guaranteed, but the last year was either not guaranteed or partially guaranteed. Since the AMOUNT of money isn't in question, getting some or all of the 4th year guaranteed is about the ONLY thing that agents can do to earn their money22-25 haven't signed either. Same deal last year, they're discussing the amount of guaranteed money in the final year of the deal. I believe last year every pick in the 1st rounded ended up being 100% guaranteed, no?
Quick-hit thoughts around NFL & Pats - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston2. Patriots first-round draft choice Dont’a Hightower is the team’s lone unsigned draft choice, but it would be a surprise if the deal is not completed by when it truly counts – the start of training camp. Hightower (25th overall) is part of a four-player cluster from picks 22-25 yet to sign, and the likely holdup is how much of the final year of the contract is guaranteed. At this point, 16 of the league’s 32 first-round picks have signed contracts, so nothing out of the ordinary with Hightower’s situation.
Holdup on Cleveland Browns QB Brandon Weeden's deal is full four-year guarantee, league source says | cleveland.comWhat is holding up a contract agreement with Patriots first-round pick Dont’a Hightower? Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, citing sources, lays it out nicely. It’s all about the fourth year of the contract and how much is guaranteed. The Browns reportedly are having a holdup with 22nd overall pick Brandon Weeden, and Hightower, the 25th pick, might be waiting to see what happens with Weeden and the two others directly in front of him who remain unsigned.

He donta' wanna sign ?
he hates the pats and loves the jets..that's why
He's negotiating for more minutes and unlimited texting.
Then it looks like we're in for a hold out. The Pats are too fricken cheap to give in on the unlimited texting. The Chargers give it, the jets give it... it's time the Pats FO gets serious, too. Brady's lucky if he's got one season left in him. The window is closing!
