Graves says they have re-written it and it should be good for the future first rounders also. Both Pace and Johnson will be in camp!

I agree...

It should have been because all of the other teams could get it done but it is a positive change.

Does this mean Graves actually has some influence, and is changing the way the Cards do business?

Howdy Doody may have to go into retirement!

Great, could have been done after last year but better late than never. Well done Graves.

This was the one thing that has really bothered me lately. I'm glad they got that figured out. Hopefully this means they will be signed on time.

Great news!!! I think after all the stuff from last year they saw how detrimental it was. I am happy about this positive change and I look for more - Good job RG!!!

I've been noticing that you seem more laid back lately. You seem to have lost that East Coast edge - I like it.......

I say we give him kudos for signing the picks, but he is still a chump until we have a winning season.

Thank Goodness.

Man, I love to hear good news about this team, because there usually isn't any. But it is good to know that our picks will get some NFL action to prime them for the big time. Who knows maybe Pace will get some real good experience and really be effective this year.

No specific details were mentioned by Rod but he did say that it was negotiated by many people from both sides. What that means, I am not quite sure. What I am sure of is that I like the end result.

:thumbup:

Did you guys hear how Rod kind of Ho-Hummed the news to Lewis and Jurecki like it was no big deal? Those two said "Woah, woah, woah...wait a second. That is breaking news!!!!" I thought that it was hilarious.:D
