The Facts:
It appears that Brown will miss at least a few days of training camp waiting for No. 1 overall pick quarterback Alex Smith's contract to be completed with San Francisco. Brown, the No. 2 overall pick, and subsequent picks Braylon Edwards and Cedric Benson, are likely to wait to see what Smith gets in a contract before doing serious negotiations.
Reported by the Miami Herald
Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
No surprise here. ... A source close to agent Tom Condon, who is representing Smith, told the Herald that Smith isn't expected to be signed until July 28 at the earliest. That's when the 49ers are scheduled to report for training camp. That leaves a lag of at least four days for Brown. There are also indications that the Smith talks could drag.
