I think people may be reading to much into the hour glass. For all we know it just means they are waiting to announce the deal?
Really its smart not to. Once we announce the CJ signing other teams know we are more likely to trade Snead, possibly reducing his trade value.
Veach could be leveraging this situation to maximize a trade for Snead. Telling other teams that he is keeping Snead if he cant deal with Jones.
Unless he gets an offer to hard to refuse for Snead...
Then when the market opens, he announces both deals! Boom!
Really no reason to do it any other way.
