As the Patriots' wait for a ruling from the league as to whether the contract with second-round pick Darius Butler will be approved (which arguably is holding up negotiations with their three other second-round picks), they've struck a deal with a lower-round selection.
According to Mike Reiss of the Boston Globe, defensive lineman Myron Pryor has agreed to terms.
Pryor was a sixth-round pick in April. He's the third of 12 draft picks to agree to terms.
UPDATE: Aaron Wilson of PFT reports that it's a four-year deal, including a $79,000 signing bonus and the minimum base salaries, along with a potential escalator in year four. The total base value is $1.829 million.

Nice job signing your 6th rounder, yesterday we threw our away.
hey Silver&Black666 - i heard the dude parked in the parking spot named "Al Davis" one time.
he will only make the team as part of the "special teams" (video taping)
Devils Advocate
Good guess but I think it was, Al Davis didn't like the fact his 40 time had diminished considerably.
