http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2954132 Working all through the day Sunday, the Washington Redskins were finally able to strike an agreement early Monday morning with first-round choice LaRon Landry of LSU, the sixth player selected overall in this year's draft. The deal, negotiated by agent Joel Segal, came just shy of 1 a.m. Monday, and will be signed later in the day after both sides review the final document. The five-year contract has a maximum value of $41.5 million and it includes $17.5 million in guarantees. A four-time all-SEC defender, Landry was universally regarded as the top safety in the 2007 draft and among the best prospects at the position in the last several years. He is one of only a handful of safeties ever chosen among the top 10 players in the modern-era draft, and joins teammate Sean Taylor, the Redskins' top pick in 2004, in that distinction.
Landry and Redskins close deal... http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_y...bYF?slug=ap-redskins-landry&prov=ap&type=lgns Incase you guys hadn't seen this already...
Jamarcus is being an idiot! Now I know the money is a huge deal, but missing camp is something he doesn't want to do.
He would be an idiot for not making sure he gets his money. This is not new in the NFL. The Raiders want to see what all the other top picks get and try to counteroffer based off that.
