Six Georgia players selected in the 2018 NFL Draft have inked deals totaling a combined $53.5 million.

With three first-round picks, the Bulldogs lay claim to being one the highest-grossing programs for draft picks in 2018.

According to Over The Cap salary tracker, this is what each draft pick from Georgia will receive over their four-year contract (which is determined by a formula that takes into account the NFL's salary cap and the rookie compensation pool outlined in the collective bargaining agreement):

• Roquan Smith, LB, first round, 8th overall (Chicago Bears): $18,477,166
• Isaiah Wynn, OG, first round, 23rd overall (New England Patriots): $11,441,910
• Sony Michel, RB, first round, 31st overall (New England Patriots): $9,626,694
• Nick Chubb, RB, second round, 35th overall (Cleveland Browns): $7,383,094
• Lorenzo Carter, LB, third round, 66th overall (N.Y. Giants): $4,083,482
• Javon Wims, WR, seventh round, 224th overall (Chicago Bears) $2,555,912

Five other former Bulldogs players went undrafted, but signed on with teams and will participate in camps this summer in the hopes of earning a permanent roster spot:

• Trenton Thompson - Cleveland Browns
• Davin Bellamy - Houston Texans
• Aaron Davis - New York Giants
• David Marvin - Atlanta Falcons
• John Atkins - New England Patriots
