Dez Bryant has signed a deal with Dallas (sucks).

As the 24th overall pick and the 1st First Rounder to sign, will this move break the log jam. I want to see Graham and Allen in camp on or close to day one.

His agent, Eugene Parker, has been notorious for encouraging his 1st round clients to hold out. But Bryant was apparently very anxious to be there when camp opened. It's not a good sign that he appears to have a good attitude. I have a fear of this guy haunting the Birds for years to come.

This is a double-edged sword. Just wait until he wishes that he didn't sign early, when he sees lesser talents making more money. Right now, everything is rosy. Things were probably rosy in the early days of TO's career as well.

Yeah but he plays for Dallas so his unhappiness in 3 years is a good thing for us.

Lesser talents making more money? Bryant will get paid more than the #25 pick and less than the #23 pick. That's not going to change just because he signed his deal first.

And that's why these holdouts suck so much. Because what they end up holding out over is minor shit.

I'm THRILLED, however, that a first round pick has finally signed. Expect 8 or 9 more in the next three days. It would be awesome if Graham was among them (I still feel pessimistic.)
