    What is going on with Sylvester Williams?

    I know Mike Klis was reporting they were working to get him signed before camp but obviously that didn't happen. Any word at all on if progress has been made with getting him signed and on the practice field? I figured with the new rookie wage scale this would have been done ages ago.

    I believe he got signed earlier this week. I will see if i can find the thread that said he did.

      According to NFL.com he hasn't been signed yet and no searches came up with anything. I'm excited to see what the guy can do. http://www.nfl.com/draft/story/0ap10...signing-status

        your right the thread I remember reading where what people were estimating. I just remember seeing yearly break downs. But hopefully they get that knocked out soon.

            It can't be about money unless it is guarantees. The only thing I can think of is it is about the language. Still though, seems like it should be a simple negotiation no?

              He wants the back of his jersey to say 'Sly'.

              Stallone is getting in the way.

              It'll be taken care of soon.

                Hopefully we get him signed in the next few days, that would be a real nice end to a week that began not so great

                  Stallone is too old to hold our rook back anyways. He better step back before he gets hurt.

                  On the real not sure what the hold up is. Contracts are not near as complicated as they use to be.

                  Kinda disappointing we have one of 8 firsts not signed and only one other in our area (Rhodes Mn pick 25) is unsigned.

                  Guess this is probably slowed by all the front office drama that has been going on.

                    It's the agents trying to make a move to regain some form of power in negotitions in the rookie contracts. They are arguing about money if a the player is cut

                        He couldn't get a deal done in the months before training camp began.

                        Kid needs to figure it out~ the money he can make from playing well far outweighs the money he could gain from winning a rookie contract negotiation.

                        Get your butt in camp.

                        Edit- sounds like he just agreed and is signing papers now. Good to hear.
