First the language is not stupid, as recent examples like Henry Ruggs shows. Second he'll sign. As to the pick I was not thrilled with it both because of the lack of actual production and because of the terrible reputation his agent has. Trey I think will be extended. As to the practice of players wailing to renegotiate contracts before it is time just because the market moved I hope the next NFLPA - NFL agreement fixes issues like that (among other issues). I'd also like to get rid of the Funding Rule and just choose a percentage Guaranteed and make all contracts automatically guaranteed to that percentage.
