First Round May Start Settling into Deals

by HBobbyT on Jul 30, 2009 8:45 AM MDT

According to Pro Football talk, Darius Heyward-Bey and Josh Freeman have signed. meanwhile Jason Smith is "very close." With Heyward-Bey signing, we may see the Crabtree situation finally get resolved, paving the way for the rest of the first round to include our very own Knowshon Moreno and Robert Ayers.

Thanks HBT...

Waiting on these guys is starting to irritate.
Get your high priced butts to camp boys…and now!

Those that cant coach, compete!
Failing to plan is planning to fail.
All I want is 53 Rod Smiths. Is that asking too much????

I heard on ESPN

That Knowshon Orakapo and the 2 peole drafted behind him are all signed by same agency, so the agency is trying to jack up Morenos $ so the other 3 will get bigger $$$

Sounds unethical

Exhibit A

This is EXACTLY why the NFL needs to address the whole rookie salary issue. This is ridiculous and sets these players back sometimes a whole season if they miss enough camp. Forget about the fact that they’re unproven kids who should be thinking about making the team first.

This is what we wanted...
Hey, look what we got!

Exactly

That way idiots like Crabtree can’t hold everyone else hostage.
