Have heard and read little if anything on progress (if any) on Gresham signing

This is the only thing I've seen lately, as it was from an article today, but doesn't say much...

GRESHAM HOLDOUT:

Jermaine Gresham officially became the sixth first-round choice in Lewis' eight seasons with the team to miss a training camp practice due to a contract holdout.

Talks between Bengals' executive vice president Katie Blackburn and Gresham's agent Ben Dogra are ongoing.

Good trivia question there: Who were the two non-holdouts? Carson Palmer was one... he was signed before the draft. Who was the other?

I could easily look it up... but I want to spend some time thinking about it first.

Did anyone really think Gresham was going to be in camp from the jump ??

I had it at somewhere between 3-5 days missed and I'll hold to that line of thought.

Does it suck ?? Sure. Unexpected ?? No...

When he gets in camp, no one will care that it took a few extra days.

Horrible just horrible. Give the guy what he is worth and where the rookie slot puts him. Just give him the money and make it happen this team needs him here now.

I think the league and the union need to get together on this one. It won't happen but with the money these guys make, they should be at every practice from day one. No excuses.

Well I had hoped they made good time on both Leon & Joseph because they were mid round picks...With the Ceiling(20th overall) shouldn't be hard to guess how much 22 is going to sign for...Ohwell hopefully the Broncos get 22 signed soon...
