With only 19 days left until training camp starts. Is it normal that we have so many unsigned rookies? I do realize that the uncapped year coming up is an issue.Though league wide, these guys just seem to be really pushing it. Thoughts. ......

Like this every year especially the day one picks.

God forbid they sign out of order.

Since the high draft round contracts usually base their contract on what previous draftees signed, it's no surprise that this happens. AFAIK the top ten draft picks usually domino from 10 to 1 even though their all on different teams.

Not too much to worry about as the Broncos have always done a really good job of getting our first round draft choices to camp on day 1. I wouldn't be too worried until a week into camp. EVen then it's not a huge deal.

Actually I heard that league wide signings are up by something like 19% which makes this a good year, if that helps.

Yeah, it's like this every year.

Another reason to put in place standard rookie 2 year contracts. That way you don't have a Jamarcus Russell type scenario as well.

As long as the Raiders can still have that type of situation. :)

Pretty normal. I don't if any teams have signed their first rounder yet.
