Darren Urban just posted a note saying that general manager Rod Graves has acknowledged that there is a strong possibility that DRC will not get his deal finalized by the start of training camp (tomorrow). Rodgers-Cromartie's agent has been traveling and hasn't been able to talk money yet with the Cardinals. The players report for camp tomorrow but the first actual practice isn't until Friday so there is 'wiggle room' for the rest of the week.
While it may not be a disastrous situation for DRC to miss a couple of practices, he is a very raw player who will need as many snaps in camp as possible. Hopefully if he isn't in camp on Wednesday or Thursday, he spends that time eating burgers and drinking protein shakes to try and bulk up to close to 200 pounds.

Not unexpected
Let’s hope it doesn’t drag on too long though! He needs all the reps he can get.

He’s probably the rookie that needs to be in practice the most. The more reps he gets against Q and Fitz, the better of he’ll be and the faster he’ll develop. It does sound like they’re still hopeful that he can be signed by the first actual practice though.
