突然想到一个关于新秀合同第五年选项的问题

一直不太明白，这是什么意思？还有，新秀第三年就可以和球队协商重签合同了吗，那么可以第三年选择交易到其它球队吗？当然不是被制服组卖了，而是自己选择离开。

好吧，找到了，原来是只有第一轮的新秀有这个选项。

As for first round draft picks, the amount of salary they’ll receive in their fifth year of play if their option is picked up by their respective team, depends upon where they were selected in the first round.  According to Slough, “If a player is picked 1-10, then the 5th year option is going to be the average of the top-10 players at the respective player’s position.  So, if you’re quarterback and go number-two in the Draft, then your fifth year option salary will be the average of the top-ten quarterbacks.  The option is exercised after the third season, so it would be based upon the top-ten quarterback salaries at that time.  If you’re picked 11-32, then the 5th year club option is the average salary of the top 3rd through 25th player in that position.”
