Hope a contract is in place
The guy is very good on the field and off the field
Is a type of rb who offers different skill set and even when he will slow down can bring something on the table with his amazing hands

Strange how Bell could reach a deal with Pitt, but Saquon got a $31 Million deal - 100% Guaranteed, from the Giants! Wonder how all of that factors into DJ and his potential deal...

Bell didn't reach a deal with Pitt. I don't think he's signed the franchise tender, even.

Barkley's deal was sloted. All rookie contracts are fully guaranteed in the first four years. If DJ would sign Barkley's deal I'd do it right now.

Whoops. That was a type. Meant to say he "couldn't"... And I'm not being all Trumpy about that either! ;)

Also, I know rookie deals are "slotted". But I thought I read that Barkley is receiving the most guaranteed money ever for a rookie RB...

Barkley got "most ever" slotted RB contract because he was drafted so high, and the slotted contracts go up every year, as the NFL digs deeper into our wallets at a rate that escalates FAR faster than the rest of the economy moves.

Good on DJ to show up for camp. He IS under contract after all. Cards should now move quickly to get him inked to a new extension. Not sure how this happens while Keim is "on vacation", but Michael B could always grind it out on his own I'd think.

FYI, this hasn't broken yet, but Bradford blew out his knee on that hand-off.

I think the other shocker is that it's fully guaranteed.

All 1st and 2nd round rookie contracts are fully guaranteed for the first four years.

It seems at Disner is a big part of the contract stuff so it might still get done while Keim is AFK....especially considering, its not impossible for Disner and Keim to discuss things off the books.

I am sure Keim has talked about this and they have the numbers and opinions with or without him :)

DJ isn't stupid. He made his point during the voluntary workouts but he isn't going to risk losing money to fines for missing training camp practices.
