I have a feeling he's going to go off on the NFL this year for the Cowboys. Guy just seems like an elite talent at the WR position.

Looking forward to seeing the terms of the contract, and will be interesting to see how it stacks up to McCourty's

5 years, $11.8 million, $8.5 guaranteed. More guaranteed cash than last year's #24 pick, Jerry of Atlanta, but less over all.

Is that a guess or the actual contract? If it's the actual contract, that insanely cheap.

I don't think that deal is particularly egregious in terms of salary for a rookie. Whenever a rookie salary cap gets installed, I can't imagine a scenario where rookies are making much less than that. The biggest changes really need to be made within the top 15 range, particularly in the top 5 where players are walking away with 25+M guaranteed dollars.

That's very reasonable money for a late first rounder. I'm sure the owners are okay with that contract, and I don't see why the NFLPA would be celebrating over it.
