What kills me is, the Rookie deals are limited in dollar amount if memory serves, so why is it so hard to get everybody signed.
 
Maybe... It just bothers the piss out of me when an unproven prospect slows the process.
 
I dont remember any holdouts last year...Griffin was in all camps and in uniform as was Luck in 2012, also. I think its just a time thing and they have to wait for representation, writing it up, giving it to them, reviewing...mumbo jumbo. I know you literally can not go over a certain number and they can only sign for a certain year so I dunno..
 
Trying to get some guaranteed salary possibly. Split Salary contracts maybe? 3rd's and below get a lot of these stipulations - I doubt that it is going to take long, irregardless of the holdup. Not worried - it's minor, whatever it is.
