(Why isn't B.J. Raji signed yet?)
If I had the answer to that, he'd probably be signed. I don't know. I think the higher you get in the rounds, certainly the first round guys, there's a little more complications and a little bit more wondering what the other fellas are going to do. But we're working at it. Russ and Dave talk all the time. Everybody's trying to do the right thing, and we'll get it worked out.

(Are your hands tied because you have to wait until the other guys around him sign?)
Not necessarily. It's just a matter of timing and negotiation.

(When he does get in, do you have to treat him differently and not throw him out there right away and risk injury?)
Well, just like we do with all the players that come in for the start of training camp, we'll do the same testing with B.J. to make sure that he's in shape. But last time we saw him he was in pretty good shape.
