On Friday, the Browns signed fifth round pick Larry Asante.  Sixth round picks Clifton Geathers and Carlton Mitchell have already signed.

No hold outs or anything like that. As far as I know, all of them have been participating in team activities and whatnot. I know Colt McCoy and Montario Hardesty have been and Hardesty, in particular, capitalized on Jerome Harrison's holdout.

It's not uncommon for contracts to take a while to sort out and as long as the players in question are showing up for team activities, nobody worries about it. The Browns have apparently decided to work their way up from the bottom in signing their draftees, because they signed the sixth rounders before they signed Asante.

So basically, "move along folks, nothing to see here".

Joe Haden in particular isn't a big deal. NONE of the first round picks have signed yet, which has the union screaming collusion. The Browns aren't having any issues with their draft class but the league is sure having problems with the union. Let's hope the Browns have a good year this year because they may not have a year at all next year.
