    CLEVELAND -- Another Browns draft pick reportedly has agreed to contract terms.

    Safety Larry Asante, the team's fifth-round pick, has signed for $1.96 million over four years, reports Adam Caplan of FOXSports.com.

    Asante joins defensive lineman Clifton Geathers and receiver Carlton Mitchell as rookie draft choices under contract. Geathers and Mitchell both were taken in the sixth round.

    Still unsigned are cornerback Joe Haden (first round), safety T.J. Ward (second), running back Montario Hardesty (second), quarterback Colt McCoy (third) and guard Shaun Lauvao (third).

            I like Assante and think he could be a force to be reckoned with. However, I still have to question where he was drafted. It's on of those weird situations where even if he turns out to be the next Polamalu, it's still a bad pick. We could have easily gotten him in the 4th or even 5th rounds. He hits like a truck, and has tons of potential though. I can't wait to see him play though.

              This is usually the way it goes. The lower round picks usually sign on first, then the higher picks.

              How many first round picks from the latest draft actually are signed yet? Few if any I suspect.

                I'm pretty sure you are talking about tj ward. If ward ends up as good as polly he was a good pick, imho any pro bowler is a good pick in the 2nd round

                  Um... I don't understand. He *was* drafted in the 5th round.

                                  Having ANY decent safety play will make me happy this season - It's been a frustration of mine (and yours I'm sure) seeing the hole plugged by underachievers and filler inners for the last few seasons. I'm keeping my eye on Ward and assante in camp as a priority. (I say my eye, I'm going to have to rely on Atenears reports as usual)

                                      $300 is ridiculous

                                      i'll just go the local backers bar, get drunk, and high-five strangers.

                                        Is it?

                                        Lets do the math.

                                        $300.00 divided by 17 weeks = $17.65 every Sunday.

                                        Will you spend more than $18.00 at the bar? Probably.

                                          i usually don't spend that much at the bar and i even drink heady brews. some of the games are on in my viewing area as well, so i probably go to the bar 6x a season. i'll be in the stands for 3 games this year, too 🙂
