Good.

The players have absolutely no leverage (NFL establishes the pay for draft picks), so the quicker they sign the better they have a shot at contributing.

Also a better reason to get them on the field in rotation and play them so you can get young starters (cheap for Jerry Dumbo GM Jones).

Cowboys doing things the right way

Was there a chance we wouldn’t sign a draft pick?

Not to mention there is no point in dragging it out. All you are doing is denying yourself access to a pre determined amount of money.

I think the league is getting this streamlined. You were drafted 26? This is what you make.

 

[KJJ]

This is about as early as I can remember all the picks being signed.

 

[ThreeandOut]

These early signings have gotten more common in recent years. There’s something in the CBA that made the 3rd round signings a little more challenging so it’s good to see they got Overshown done.

Yeah usually at least the third round pick is held up for a bit

Nope, only a moron wouldn't be able to sign the picks since they are all slotted and really no bargaining power. this is the easy part.

Just normally they do it a week or two before TC.

that’s what she said. that was quick

 

[SportsGuru80]

Well damn this early... Good stuff though.

 

[big dog cowboy]

So glad the days of waiting until the last minute to see if we could get someone signed are over.

Just a bunch of unnecessary drama.

 

[unionjack8]

Good. That's 8 new starters . SB pretty much lined up.
