You would to think..unless he gets greedy or the Cards get cheap...that he will sign. I doubt that happens...Cards have been aggressive and smart about buying out these kids this year. Sometimes that extra 50K or 100K turns into a million dollar investment. I am exited about Niko...I think he shadows Kozma all the way up the ladder.

Nothing piques my curiosity more than something I never get to know about. I think someone on here said that Niko shouldn't be a bad sign b/c he had struggled academically or something - is that the case?
