Let's make this the official contract thread for all the signees.


Alshon Jeffery - WR - Bears

Bears agreed to terms with No. 45 overall pick WR Alshon Jeffery on a four-year contract.
The first member of the 2012 draft class is signed quickly, thanks in large part to the new rookie wage scale. Last year's No. 45 pick, Rahim Moore, signed a four-year, $4.448 million contract with a $1.73 million signing bonus. Jeffery will vie for the starting job opposite Brandon Marshall this summer, though he may need a year of development before making a fantasy impact.

Jason Slowey 1st pick to sign for the 49ers


Slowey (6-foot-4, 305 pounds) was the starting left tackle for three seasons at Western Oregon. He was named Great Northwest Athletic Conference Offensive Lineman of the Year as a senior.But the 49ers expect to use him as an interior offensive lineman. Slowey said he can play anywhere.

Jets signed WR Stephen Hill, the No. 43 overall pick in the draft, to a four-year, $5 million contract.

He received $2.8 million in guarantees. Last year's 43rd overall pick, Kyle Rudolph, got $3.91 million over four years. Although Hill was considered raw in the draft community, the Jets believe he can run a full route tree as a rookie and expect him to start opposite Santonio Holmes. It's just not a strong fantasy situation in a run-first offense without a hint of quarterback stability.
