Food for thought on Meachum signing....

This I thought was interesting. It's from ESPN.

The New Orleans Saints, for instance, have signed six of seven picks, and senior football administrator Russ Ball, the primary negotiator for the Saints, can now focus his efforts on striking a deal with first-round wide receiver Robert Meachem. The 27th prospect chosen, Meachem and his agents are basically locked into a 2007 salary cap charge of $992,630, because that's all the room New Orleans has remaining from its rookie pool allocation of $2.378 million.
