I like it. Good youth and depth, without putting a hole in the wallet.

According to PFT, Ohrnberger's deal has a $451K signing bonus.

So: $310K base + 1/4 x $451K = $423K

No. I was just predicting what the salary cap hits should be.

Ohrnberger's the first one to sign.

Hopefully he'll be the first of what I hope will be a seamless rookie signing period.

He has come to an agreement but has not put pen to paper.

Hopefully, a couple more will sign today before the team breaks

up until late July.

There's something about this guy...
#1-the Pats trade Hobbs for the right to draft him
#2-he's the first to sign
#3-he's taken ahead of a few guys that some thought were rated higher

Makes me think that he not only has a "slam-dunk" roster spot (obv 4th rounders should anyways) but he has a very good chance of being a contributor sooner rather than later.
