I get that, but how many teams are cutting their first round picks after one season?

Let's be practical, not hypothetical.

Which is why I said that the later picks are probably more complicated after the new deal than the early picks.

*shrugs* Ok, my overall point still stands. It should be "paint by numbers" to get your draft picks signed quickly and some teams have caught on to this. The Jeff Ireland-run Dolphins were going in the opposite direction on this, as well as many other common sense things.

yes its easier to do these days, nobody is arguing that. But if its so easy every team should have everyone signed by yesterday or today. They don't. That was the only point. Fins were on top of this and got it done super quick. Not saying they get jobs for life out of it, but give them a some credit...jesus!

1/3 of the first round picks are still unsigned. Apparently, what the Dolphins managed in two days wasn't all that easy.

(No idea about picks outside the first round... nfl.com track the first round only)
