None of the top 5 have signed, and before this CBA it would have been out of the question to have him signed until days before training camp. Regardless as others said, he will be signed in plenty of time.

Guess this means Cousins will be starting over RGIII come September. It has to mean something that they signed him over RGIII right? Bueller? Bueller? Anybody?

Now I get why RGIII hasn't signed. Just read this tweet that explains it all.

@espn_nfceast @Redskins Griff isnt signing because he can spend more time at the park. Hes there 12-13 hours a day right now.#cbaloophole

Love this kid. Love our FO.

I'm sure there's someone here who wants to hop on the overreaction wagon.

Just look at one of the responses to the tweet, some jagoff predicts Cousins will win the starting job.

So does that mean that all the rookies that have signed are slackers?

No, but none of those other rookies are slated to be starting at the most important position on the field either.

I'm just saying, that none of the top 5 have signed, and we aren't even close to any type of deadline. Sure I am glad that the media has a positive reason, better that than, the kid is upset and wants #1 slot money. But, even if that was the real reason, we wouldn't know it till we get closer to the deadline. Right now it's all just spin and hype.

What is there to negotiate; aren't all rookie salaries all ready set due to where you were picked?

RG3 may sign the type of deal similar to what Cam Newton signed last year. The Panthers gave Newton a basic 22 million dollar guaranteed contract. I can see the Redskins giving Griffin III a deal similar with added incentives.
