Here's a breakdown of the draft picks and their agents:

Mike Jenkins - Eugene Parker - See Jones.

Martellus Bennett - Kennard McGuire - Just completed long-term deal with Cowboys for Ken Hamlin,

Tashard Choice - Ben Dogra - Just completed long-term deal with Cowboys for Terence Newman

just by the way things went with Hamlin (not saying they went bad) I see Martellus Bennets contract hitting some small snags but overall I think everyone will get signed by camp with maybe one of the 2 first round rookies signing the day or 2nd day of camp. If the last part happens I would see it happening with Jenkins more than Felix just for the fact Felix really seems adament on learning the offenses and being there to learn.

Big difference between a guy who went to the pro-bowl and wants to be paid like it, and a guy who is just getting started in the league. No way Bennett holds out, he knows very well that his playing time, which determines future paydays, depends on being on the field ASAP.
