All five RFA's sign their tender offers

The Browns reported on Tuesday that all five restricted free agents, Jerome Harrison, Matt Roth, D'Qwell Jackson, Abe Elam, and Lawrence Vickers signed their one offers to play football the is season.

Signing the tender made sense for each of them.

Last week the Browns issued each a letter stating that the offer to each would be reduced to league minimum numbers if the player did not sign by June 15. Elam would have lost about $200,000, but the others would have lost over a million each.

The Browns have also said they would explore signing some of the RFA's to an extension during the season, after the current regime of Holmgren and Heckert have had a chance to see the players perform and evaluate their play.
