skins_warrior26 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 "Just heard that Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings signed his contract. Peterson was the seventh overall pick in the draft, one spot behind LaRon Landry. Could we have some progress on Landry now? Again...Stay tuned."

Portis N Pals Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 he should sign TODAY. No reason to delay things now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InsaneBoost Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I hope he signs soon, he needs to get in all the practice he can, 2 days is already to much IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Worthy Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Well from the Training Camp section there is a major rain delay with the fans as well as the players so maybe he lucked out with actual practice today and they will get him in tonite.

Xero21 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I'm sure I heard Peterson got a 5 year, 40 million dollar deal with 17 mil guarantee'd Since Landry was picked right before him, any idea on what Landry's contract will be like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCRoughrider Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 The NFL and the NFLPA need to agree to a "slotting" system so that first round draft picks can get in on time. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuji869 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 He needs to get into camp and not turn this into a long hold out! :soapbox: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumbsheet Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Looks like it might get ugly. That other top first rounders are signing and there's no news on Landry at all ain't good. I think it might be more the Skins stalling than anything else. They know they have to be super smart....er, I mean super sensitive about the contract they give Landyr, lest they get Sean Taylor all in a hissy (he's already been teed about his contract since before the ink dried). If not careful, they may end up with two disgruntled safeties instead of one. Just sayin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurrayH81 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Okay folks, some of you need to relax a bit. He has not missed significant playing time as yet. His agent and the club have reported that they are in negotiations, and that things are close. He hasn't missed any scrimmage or pre-season games yet, nor a lot of camp time. Let the young man get his business stuff taken care of, and then we will see a relaxed player ready to play eager for the action, instead of wondering what he would have, should have, could have gotten.

Mackdaddydean Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Well I just talked to my source close to Landry and he said "Mark my words, he will sign today. This evening at the latest." So there ya go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shagman Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Well I just talked to my source close to Landry and he said "Mark my words, he will sign today. This evening at the latest." So there ya go. :applause: :applause: :applause: People definitly need to relax- It isnt a huge deal that he hasnt signed yet IMO, the Peterson deal has been inked so now they can move forward.

Not every top pick has signed yet, and they've repeatedly said that they're close. Taylor's not going to get mad because he'll be getting a big contract in the future and he knows it.

Walking Deadman Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I'm not worried. It just gives PP, VF, OS some snaps with the 1st team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMetal Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I'm convinced this isn't going to happen until his ahole agent finalizes the Levi deal. He is screwing with our team trying to get a better deal for another client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_33 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I'm not worried.It just gives PP, VF, OS some snaps with the 1st team. Agreed! It also might make cuts more simple,by seeing these 3 practice if any are cut... MAN....My brother (Giants fan)thinks we will have the best secondary in football when all is said and done... With area 51 and the safety depth there...then with Springs,Smoot and Rogers in Nickel situations...Look out! Having Butler,Macklin and Jimoh for depth seems pretty promising!

Jimbo Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Having Butler,Macklin and Jimoh for depth seems pretty promising! Sorry but I still have a problem considering Jimoh as depth. To me, he's a good special teams player and nothing more. If I ever see him on the field with the game on the line, consider me VERY worried.

beedyb220 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I think that the holdup is that Landry's agent (Joel Segal) is the same one for the pick above him, #5 Levi Brown. I think that complicates things a little. http://www.azcardinals.com/news/detail.php?PRKey=1805 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
