All of these lovely sentiments are well and good.

Just remember them when the money is not there to retain one or more of the many proven players as these many contracts expire at the end of this season.

I bet everyone forgets those lovely sentiments.

Every nickel too much for B.J. will be a nickel too little for one of our vets.

There are people who are paid to make sure that everyone gets the "right" amount. I'm not saying that he should get paid "too much". Just saying I know he's gonna get a lot, and I'm fine with that.

seems silly, but both side want to see what the number 8 pick is going to sign for. then decide what a fair value for raji is.

i think both side will get a deal done by Sat.

So if you meet me Have some courtesy, Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse, Or I'll lay your soul to waste

Raji leaves Green Bay

Just awesome! I guess this confirms that talks weren't going anywhere until a few of the draft picks surrounding him signed.

Raji leaves Green Bay
Posted by Mike Florio on August 11, 2009 9:06 PM ET
Defensive lineman B.J Raji, the ninth overall pick in the 2009 draft, has been hanging out in Green Bay pending the successful negotiation of a rookie contract.

He's not there anymore.

Per Greg Bedard of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Raji has left Green Bay.

Raji previously said he didn't plan to hold out. Wednesday will be day twelve of his absence from camp.

Some league insiders believe that having the player in town gives a little extra leverage to the team.

If so, that leverage is now gone.

A total of five first-round picks -- all taken in the first eleven selections -- have not yet signed.

Certainly not good news but he will be back.
His stock went up big time now that Bustin Justin broke down again.

I definitely hope something gets done soon. This is unfortunate indeed. Might not even see him in the first pre-season game.
