So things are falling into place. GK said he was waiting to see Sam's deal.

Re: Trent Williams signs ($37 mil guaranteed)
Yep... opposing fans were sure right when they said all of our guys wouldn't gain anything by coming back, alright.

I remember the jokes about how much they were being paid to come back... well, there it is, folks. Three of the top four and the top TE taken as well. 36 mill guaranteed is a great reason to stay.

Hey haters...

lol - but teebz did get a good deal. it was like nearly 20 percent higher than last year's pick at the same spot (although that guy was a DB and not a QB, methinks).

I am not sure how good Trent's deal is compared to other O-linemen, but I heard them mentioning "blind side" on ESPN this morning. Anyone who saw Sandra Bullock's mommy role knowns that "blind side" is code for "second-highest paid player on the team behind the QB"

Way to go, Trent. Make Sooner Nation proud!

I don't think it is Sam, I think the Rams had to ask China for a loan for the (5 yr. $75,000,000.00 / $58,000,000.00 guaranteed)

Isn't that backwards? I thought usually pick #1 was the last one to sign because the agent holds out to make sure he gets more money than anyone else.

Re: Trent Williams signs ($37 mil guaranteed)
No...Most of the time, the 2-5 picks will wait to see the increase the #1 gets over last year's number 1(which is typically 8-9 %) and then work out their contract

Way to go Trent! That's a good number for the guys taken ahead of him too.

Can't wait to see the ridiculous $$ that Sam will get.

And yeah, to all the people that said these guys made a mistake staying in college, they were just a little wrong.

Re: Trent Williams signs ($37 mil guaranteed)
I really expect Sammie's deal in soon.

speaking of first round quarterbacks, looks whose converted form is already reverting back to crappy:


It's a third-string quarterback's form... nobody should be surprised

I thought I read somewhere that Tebow's NFL jersey is the top in sales at the moment. That has to count for something. I would be surprised if the Broncos organization doesn't try to put him in, at least in a few gimmicky plays, to keep the cash register still going cha-chink. If he models underwear as per his new endorsement deal for Jockey, his throwing motion mechanics wouldn't really be the point.
