Bryce signs his deal

The rookie wage scale and fifth year option is one of the few recent developments in the NFL that is actually pretty good and makes the game better imo.  High picks get their guaranteed money while the teams that drafted them aren't hamstrung with Sam Bradford type rookie deals.

Sam Bradford wasn't even that bad, he just couldn't stay healthy.

  It's the lazy ass Jamarcus Russell types you have to avoid.

He will be extended before his 4th season.  I have spoken. 

Is that even possible?

Would be wise if they did.

As expected,  it got done the week before training camp.

I don’t get why this is even exciting anymore. Is Joey Bosa the only rookie that held out for a bit during the past decade? Rookies signing deals based on a pretty fixed scale is not a big deal. Was there even a chance Young wouldn’t sign before camp? No.

They literally always do. I feel like Joey Bosa was the last time a rookie had a contentious hold out in a decade and he missed no actual game time.

Not really but it's been a while since a number 1 didn't sign in May or June. So people were naturally curious

It's a new policy I made up.

Myles Garrett was extended after 3 seasons.

I just referenced Bradford because iirc he signed the richest rookie deal in league history.  I think that was the last year before the rookie wage scale.

Draft picks can be extended after the end of their 3rd season, but not before.

Let's hope that happens because it will show that he has done a great job.

There was actually a little sarcasm in my post.  It is "exciting" because so many people seemed to be fretting about it.
