For any of you sweating this whole contract business out: Just relax. Luck will be signed and ready to go for the start of training camp.

Well, I'll let you use your imagination. It just wouldn't be pretty.
The top eight draft picks still all remain unsigned, with the completion of Luck's contract ultimately setting the rest of their deals in motion. Colts tight ends, Coby Fleener and Dwayne Allen, have also yet to provide their Herbie Hancock.
However, the bigger news here, at least for me, is the fact that training camp opens in only three weeks. Yes, three weeks until we start the madness, amazement, and pure joy that is a NFL season.
Go Colts!
