Just a quick late summer signing update now that the big day has passed. Things will begin to get more consistent in terms of posting over the next few weeks as I finish sorting through all of  the notes, observations, and 2011 draft rankings that I’ve managed to take in throughout the past two mostly computer/internet deprived months.
