However, it could be that they are truly interested in signing a guy like Scherff, who may not want to sign until later in camp. A lot of those older vets really don't need training camp, they would rather recover fully from the previous season, and then just show up a couple of weeks before the first game to knock the dust off and get winded a time or two.

I may be wrong, but it may mean the team will pick an OL in round 1 to start at guard in 2025. Thus, why they are waiting. My guess is they are extremely confident either Booker and Jackson is available with pick 17. I honestly would be fine if that is the decision, hopefully we get a guard who can be great for at least 5 years (same as Chase contract and 4 years with Burrow and Higgins as well.

It would be one more piece on the offensive side ofthe ball locked in for many years. Mims also has 4 years so they would be building a very good nuclueus for the future while addressing a major need.

Maybe safety is not on our rader for round 1.
