just curious but if you were totally innocent would you sign this deal?
His options are very limited. Heard where he said.....if he wasn't drafted in the first three rounds, he would go back in the draft next year. One of the gum bumpers said....as a FA, he would not be eligible to re-enter the draft next year. He got as good a deal as he could have hoped for from the Cowboys.

It really isn't a bad situation considering he went to a very good team that doesn't suck, he was able to pick where ever he wanted to go and he'll make good money. He can also get a new deal a year earlier. Phil Savage broke it down pretty well this morning and if he get's the max amount he can get for 3 years under the current structure, he will earn about roughly half what a first or second rounder would get over four years. That's a fair amount of money but he won't have to worry about making the team like a lot of UDFA's will and that money lost will be all but forgotten about in 3 years.
