Bengals rookie DE Shemar Stewart is holding out from practice

I am glad we didn’t draft

This means nothing.
Why risk injury without a contract.

I get why he is doing it….but to me this is more of a reflection on them than him. Why wouldn’t you sign your first round pick?

the rookie contract scale is set in stone; there is no reason why a team cannot sigh all its players a week or so after the draft
so it does appear to be on the team not him
