BROWNS All 7 draft choices missing as rookie camp gets under way

BEREA (AP) -- The Cleveland Browns opened rookie camp Tuesday without their seven draft choices.
The team had not come to contract terms with any of the players, including first-round pick Jeff Faine, a center from Notre Dame.
Rookies under contract, which include non-drafted free agents, began their first practice Tuesday at 3:30 p.m.
Last week, Browns coach Butch Davis said every team is in a similar situation because few draft picks around the league have signed.
"I think every agent is terrified to death that they're going to give their player a bad deal. They want to drag their feet," he said. "We've got contract offers out to everybody."
The other unsigned Browns draftees are: outside linebacker Chaun Thompson (West Texas A & amp;M); running back Lee Suggs (Virginia Tech); long snapper Ryan Pontbriand (Rice); defensive end Antonio Garay (Boston College), and defensive backs Chris Crocker (Marshall) and Michael Lehan (Minnesota).
