Sorry Billy. Nothing yet.

8:40 CST and still no signings...

I checked this morning..... still nothing.

Still nothing, Billy. Check back often for more updates.

Where's my update saying that there is nothing to update?

Well this might be a good sign:


Top-five pick packs his bags for training camp
Posted by Mike Florio on July 27, 2010 1:55 AM ET

He's not under contract, yet. But Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh, the second overall pick in the 2010 draft, is packing his bags and getting ready to go to Detroit.

How do we know this? Suh said so himself, on his Twitter page.

In his first entry in nearly a week, Suh posted the following message last Monday night: "What a great day of workouts and relaxing and packing for D twn. PS looking forward to camp!!"

The Lions open training camp on Friday. And while Suh has said nothing about actually leaving for Detroit or signing a contract when he arrives, he seems to be anxious to get going.

Some teams would use that disclosure as leverage against the player. If, after all, the player is champing (yes, it's champing not chomping) at the bit to suit up and play, he'll be likely to take slightly less favorable terms. That's why many agents don't allow their clients to come to the town in which the team's training camp will be conducted until a deal is done or extremely close to it. Other agents will secretly put their clients up in a nearby location, so that they'll be able to show up and sign the deal and join the team in training camp as soon as the terms are worked out.

Some think that Suh, the only player in the top five not represented by CAA, would be wise to wait for the mega-firm to finalizes deals for the first overall pick (Rams quarterback Sam Bradford) and the third overall pick (Bucs defensive tackle Gerald McCoy). But Suh apparently wants to play football -- a refreshing trait given that he's going to strike it rich; the only question at this point is how rich he'll strike it.

Got something for you, Billy. Suh and Best have not signed yet.

Lions' Jim Schwartz: Rookie signings will happen quickly

With players due to report for training camp Friday, the Detroit Lions still have not signed their first-round draft picks. But coach Jim Schwartz said he expects teams to sign their players quickly after the higher draft picks reach deals.

“I think, when you talk about first-round picks signing, there’s a domino effect with a lot of those,” Schwartz said today in a meeting with reporters. “So many teams wait for another team. And not just teams, agents wait. Nobody wants to be the first to stick their neck out, particularly from an agent’s standpoint. That’s just part of the business.”

St. Louis quarterback Sam Bradford, the No. 1 overall pick, has not signed his contract and missed the Rams’ first day of rookie workouts today.

Schwartz said assistant coaches have been in contact regularly with defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh and running back Jahvid Best, the No. 2 and No. 30 overall picks in April's draft, and the rookies shouldn’t have much ground to make up when they report to the team.

“Ndamukong and Jahvid are in really good shape,” Schwartz said. “They left here in great shape. They both had good spring workouts after the draft for us. They’re guys that we’re counting on. I’m sure, whenever they get here, we’ll get them up to speed pretty quickly, and they’ll be ready to go. Both of those guys want to be here.

“But it’s just part of the business that you accept, and with the system that we have right now is that you need certain players to sign and then, all of a sudden, three or four players around them will sign. All of a sudden, things will happen pretty quickly."

Players are scheduled to report for training camp between noon and 6 p.m. Friday. When they report, they will be assessed by trainers. That assessment, as well as a conditioning test before Saturday’s first practice, will help determine which players go on the physically unable to perform list.

Players nursing injuries, especially players with knee injuries such as safety Ko Simpson, cornerback Jack Williams, tight end Brandon Pettigrew and running back Kevin Smith, could be candidates for the PUP list. Schwartz said he would make the main determination on the PUP list around noon Saturday, with the first practice of training camp scheduled for 3:15 p.m.

Linebacker Ryan Stamper and safety Randy Phillips, two undrafted rookie free agents, returned for physicals and workouts this week, but the team has not signed them to contracts.

I found this on NFL.com. It's a breakdown of the 1st round picks. Who has signed and for how much. And who remains unsigned. I was looking for it because almost everyone around Best at pick 30 is signed. So, he should sign today.

Pro Football Talk is reporting that Trent Williams, #4 to the Redskins, has signed his deal. No terms were released.

6 years, 60 million with 36.75 million guaranteed. And that's two picks behind Suh...gonna be a looot of money involved.

Dang...
