I just wonder why Allen isn't on that list, he's not a QB,RB or WR so why should it take till the day before camp begins to get something done?? I think rookies should only be allowed to earn a certain amount of money till they prove their worth to the league, it would eliminate holdouts. I can't understand how you justify payin a player who's never played an NFL game millions of dollars while many guy's that have been in the league for 7-8 years make far less. It's just a joke to give a 20 year old kid Millions of dollars in the hope he stays healthy and contributes.

Sounds good. Let's get everyone signed so no one is left to miss any training camp. If we want this year to be special, we need to start on the right foot.

No B.S.

First round players nowadays generally try to wait until the people around them have been signed to get a baseline for their deal. They try to base their deal around the guy signed close ahead of behind them. The other rounds just usually go for a minimal increase off of the year before, compared to the first.

Right now, only Mario Williams has been signed. Once more first rounders sign, you'll usually see a flurry of them.

Huizinga wants all his players signed and in camp day one, it will happen. I am not worried about this one bit.

Strange seeing all of our 7th round picks getting 4 years deals. Never heard that before.

But I'm trying to figure out why Hagan isn't on that list. He is the only draft pick of ours that we have yet heard anything about.
