Wasting little time, the Arizona Cardinals signed three of their seven draft picks on Thursday to contracts.  You like to see a team move fast to get your draftees going.  None of the signed picks was first rounder Deone Bucannon but signings should show the Cards mean business.

Second-round draft pick, tight end Troy Niklas and third-round picks defensive end Kareem Martin and wide receiver John Brown all signed their contracts on Thursday.  Is it is a good start and according to reports the Cards don’t expect to take long to sign their other guys.

It is a far cry from years past when the Cards would have a tough time getting their picks to sign, especially the high round picks.  Granted Bucannon isn’t inked to a deal yet but hopefully he will be soon.  The last thing the Cards need is the distraction of contract signings going into training camp at the end of July.
