With the signings of Russell Okung and C.J. Spiller on Friday the entire first round class of 2010 NFL Draft picks are now signed and expected to be in camp.

Although Dez Bryant was the first of the picks to sign with the Dallas Cowboys, the ball really got rolling when first overall pick Sam Bradford signed with the St. Louis Rams to a record $50 million guaranteed.  Since then, a rapid flurry of signings has taken place including that of Ndamukong Suh on Tuesday.  Suh was widely believed to be the best available and was often believed to the Rams first choice in many mock drafts. 

The signing of Russell Okung by the Seattle Seahawks represents the first of what could be many first round signed draft picks under new coach and former USC Trojans coach Pete Carroll. Okung, an Oklahoma State product, was named Big 12 Offensive Lineman of the Year last season and will be expected to be a replacement to lineman Walter Jones who sat out the entire 2009 season due to injury. 

C.J. Spiller was believed to be the best available of running backs in the 2010 Draft and fell into top place during the draft when he was selected by the Buffalo Bills as the ninth overall pick.  Spiller represents the first pick of former Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets coach Chan Gailey. 

Buffalo has struggled mightily in the past few season on the offensive side of the ball.  The team often looked as if they needed a map, compass and a lot of luck to score.  The matter was further complicated when starting quarterback Trent Edwards was lost to injury. 

Spiller will be expected to take pressure off of the offense in Buffalo and will specifically be expected to provide variation to an offense that sometimes appeared one dimensional.  Before selecting Spiller, many believed Buffalo would opt for a quarterback and met several times with Jimmy Clausen, Colt McCoy and Tim Tebow.
