Locked up until he turns 32 years of age! :nod:

Just $10 mil signing bonus and $40 mil guaranteed - both seem on the low side of a franchise LT. Sounds too good to be true.

Per Rotoworld

7/30/2014: Signed a ten-year, $109 million contract. The deal contains $40 million guaranteed, including a $10 million signing bonus. 2014: $2,079,013, 2015: $10.039 million, 2016-2023: Under Contract, 2024: Free Agent

LoOka to be NO cap destroying seasons either. He's now the 2nd highest paid RT. Odds are he'll slip down the scale soon. Hope he doesn't decide he want to renegotiate 5 years in.

YET! Just wait until we sign Dez to a $90 mil contract and have to restructure Smith each year until he's out of Jerry's budget. :gaah:

Think about it. Romo's deal was written so the HAD to redo it no matter who else needed yo be signed. Smiths contract is low in 15 (Romo's contract will HAVE to be redone for 15) then the deal flattens out at a very team friendly 10.039M a season. Get through 15 and the cap will take care of it self.

If they can get Bryant a similar deal Rome will redo his deal next year then Cap hell should be a thing of the past.

If these numbers are correct it is great news for Cowboy fans. A top 5 LT who is extremely young only gets a 10 million signing bonus. Man his agent SUCKS. I'd think he'd get double or triple that. Why would he settle for such a small amount of money?

Jerry did great!

I need to see the details on this. From the headline it looks like T Smith got taken to the cleaners. I will continue my point all year that so far this offseason this team has done a great job at making smart cap deals. This would really be a feather in Jerry's cap if this is true.

Yep, proof is in the details. I'm afraid he's going to decide he's underpaid sometime around 2017 or 18.
