Default NFL: Colts sign 1st rounder Anthony Gonzalez

Sources representing Anthony Gonzalez informed us the 32nd pick of last April's first round has agreed in principle to a five-year deal with the Indianapolis Colts. The agreement came about at 2:30 ET.

No terms were disclosed. Gonzalez is expected to sign the deal later

I didn't think anyone outside of pick 22 could sign for more then 4 years.

i wonder if he'll start out like reggie wayne where he doesn't really do anything for the first couple of years. His first season he got only 345 yards. Reggie hit the list of elite wide receivers in his 4th season.

Actually, it is

Top 16 - 6 years
17-32 5 years
2nd round and later - 4 years.

From Page 33 of the CBA:
The initial Player Contract of a Rookie, including any Club
option, may not exceed four (4) years in length, except that the initial Player Contract of a Rookie drafted with a selection in the first half of the first round (e.g., the first sixteen (16) of thirty-two (32) selections in the 2006
Draft), including any Club option, may not exceed six (6) years in length, and the initial Player Contract of a Rookie drafted with a selection in the second half of the first round, including any Club option, may not exceed
five (5) years in length.
