Twitter: Cowboys sign 1st Rd pick Zack Martin

[WoodysGirl]

Martin’s four-year deal is worth $8.967 million and includes a $4.842 million signing bonus. Second-round pick DeMarcus Lawrence is the last remaining pick to sign.

Woot..Guess I was just a few days early on my other thread.

Thats cool, just need to get Lawrence locked up and we will be ready to go.

 

[Risen Star]

They were signing them in reverse order.

OMG....somebody start a DeMarcus Lawrence holdout thread.

Obviously, they read this board and thought, "Man, we better get on it!"

Effectively ends that drama.

My sex appeal could be that powerful.

Seemed like recent history was that we signed them right before training camp...not sure if the new labor deal has made it easier to get it done or what. Glad to see them almost all signed and in camp. They need as much prep time as possible.

No 5th year option?

I feel as good about this pick as I did Tyron Smith (which I felt great about)

I think there should be, I thought that applied to every first round pick?

It depends on where you were selected in the 1st rd. I forget where the stopping point is, though.

Glad the got that done so that they can move onto D-Law and get ready for camp.

Close. All 1st round draft picks get the 5 year option. The price that option costs depends on where they were selected. There's a pretty good write-up of the new structures here for anyone interested: http://rulingsports.com/2012/04/25/the-structure-of-nfl-rookie-contracts/

Good deal. Thought it was for the upper half vs the lower half.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

I am being overly sensitive, or does the statement that he has already mad a huge impact on the Cowboys season seem like a cheap shot?

The rookie cap slots everyone in line. It is all known what the total is going to be but language and bonus structures etc are the only things that have to be figured out.

Two more first round offensive lineman and we will be set.
