I wonder if this means that St. Louis can actually try to sign someone now?? prolly not.

Re: per PFT
It's how Cleveland decided back in 99 between Couch and Akili.
The guy that was easier to negotiate and accept a contract was the pick...hence Couch.
Teams with the number 1 pick tend to do this more times than not, to avoid things like John Elway and Bo Jackson from occuring again.

Originally posted by jfreemanI know, but I've never understood how fair that is to the other 31 teams? Seems to defeat the entire purpose/"excitement" of the draft.
they have the choice of whoever they want not like rams talking to him saying we will give you more....that would be an issue
MUCK
