I'm glad to see them get one done and hope to see them moving fast from here on out.

There's really no reason not to get these done with the new scale in place.

I figured better to have a single thread to talk about all the signings as opposed to a different thread for each signing.

Zeitler is the one I want to see get done the most.

Yep, hard to figure out why it takes as long as it does.

There are teams that already have all their draft picks signed.

Not complaining, just saying it shouldn't take all that.

They're allowed to practice in the rookie stuff, anyway, so I don't see it as a pressing issue. It'll get done...

I'm sure they're just waiting and feeling things out as well as they can. Not much incentive not to...

I know there are things to consider at the top end of the draft with some players getting their entire contract fully guaranteed like Green did last year, but once you get down into the middle of the round and later, those guarantees drop in percentage and at some point, go away completely.

I don't think that really impacts us very much, but there are still other incentives to consider as well.

I'm with you buddy. I'm looking forward to that.

I know they say Charles has to work on his blocking, but I really think the two of them are going to add a nice wrinkle to things this year. When you consider the RB by committee approach, the added speed at the WR spot, the upgrades to the interior of the o-line, and a full offseason for Dalton, I think things are really going to be fun to watch this season.

Haven't seen anything new about getting contracts done though.

No worries, just kind of dead...
