The Facts:
Leinart missed the Cardinals' first day of workouts Monday as contract negotiations between the team and their first-round draft pick dragged on. There were no indications from the club that it was close to signing Leinart, the 10th overall pick last spring. "Whenever Matt gets here, we'll be happy," Dennis Green said after the workout.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Asked if he was afraid Leinart might fall behind if he missed more practices, Green replied, "Any time you're not practicing you fall behind, in my opinion. ..." As NFL Network insider Adam Schefter noted tonight, the players drafted directly in front of and behind him have signed. Yet Leinart apparently is seeking more money than the No. 10 overall pick typically has been paid. So far, no go.
