What’s wrong with this picture? We’re almost two months from training camp and three months from pre-season games starting and three of the top four picks have signed already.
Darren McFadden signed a six-year deal with $26 million in guarantees, according to media reports. The deal leaves Chris Long of the Rams as the only unsigned pick among the top four.
What happened to holdouts? Contract disagreements? Especially with the Raiders, who didn’t sign JaMarcus Russell until it was too late for him to have an impact last year. Are teams really negotiating earlier with their draft picks?
In an ideal world these clowns would come to the realization that they are already making way too much money out of the gate as rookies and they should be grateful to be set up for life. But almost assuredly these are exceptions and in reality the rule of a holdout or two a year will again hold true.
