With the Jaguars signing Eugene Monroe tonight, just three first-round draft picks remain unsigned — Andre Smith (Bengals), Michael Crabtree (49ers) and Aaron Maybin (Bills).

Monroe’s five-year deal is worth a maximum of $35.4 million and includes $19.2 million guaranteed, according to a league source. It’s the most guaranteed money in Jaguars history (the deal signed by quarterback David Garrard was reported by some as being worth $20 million guaranteed, but that sum included a “one-timer” bonus based on playing time that isn’t truly guaranteed). Monroe’s guarantee, plus one-timer, is worth $25 million.
