Yeah, the negotiations may be a little more tricky than years past but will get done [deleted] The article gave what I believe a good basis for TW's contract, that is last year's 4th overall, and the 1st and 2nd OT drafted last year.

Some figures to keep in mind, though: Last year’s No. 4 pick, Seattle linebacker Aaron Curry, signed a six-year, $60 million deal with $34 million guaranteed, according to NFL.com.
Also last season, the second- and sixth-overall picks were offensive linemen Jason Smith and Andre Smith, respectively. Jason signed with St. Louis for five years, $61.8 million ($33 million guaranteed). Andre signed with Cincinnati for four years, $26 million ($21 million guaranteed).

I imagine he will be looking at about 62 Million over 5 years with 35 million guaranteed, I just don't see how you can't just put your pen on the paper and sign that. Let others haggle, you get in on time.
