I've got a spreadsheet that I update every year for Clemson players in the Dabo-era who have gone on to an NFL paycheck of some type. These are players who entered the league from 2009-2024 and the data is from Spotrac.com
I had to make a couple educated guesses here and there and the rookie numbers are usually off since a larger portion of salaries are deferred until the latter years of contracts. It also doesn't include the 2024 salaries, and several guys below are getting massive bumps this fall. Regardless, a lot of family trees have been changed.
I did not include players who transferred (like Chad Kelly) or were dismissed (like Derion Kendrick).
