This is something I stole from the TT board.
a guy called BornOrange posted all of the signing dates of the Texans picks, since we no longer care about the Capers/Casserly picks, I am posting the Kubiak picks. (I know Casserly's group signed Kubiak's first draft).

Notice that mid July is when most of the signings occur, having two signed in June is very unusual. Also the longer the team waits the more the player gets concerned, he wants to be in on time, and he want some cash, it's hard to live without cash.
Negotiation 101, wait and don't be in a hurry.
