Message: [QUOTE="Libero2, post: 693432, member: 2812"] Actually more often than not its a trickle up effect. The late round guys sign quickly because they don't have much leverage and whatever the team puts in front of them they sign. The higher that you are picked the more entitled they feel they are to more money and the more teams want them to agree to an additional year. So more negotiating takes place. That said with the rookie wage scale, there isn't much negotiating to do and I don't believe the entire NFL has had a single holdout since its implementation. Now granted its only been a year or two, but it still hasn't happened yet. Tat said with so many unsigned guys league wide, it looks to happen this year as camps seem to be all starting in the next 10-15 days. [/QUOTE]
