Oh well, all fans of other NFC teams that kept harping about Barber going to Miami or somewhere else? Well, you can stop now.
IRVING, Texas - On a day that was supposed to only signal the start of OTA practices here at Valley Ranch, the Cowboys locked up a centerpiece on each side of the ball.
The Cowboys signed running back Marion Barber and cornerback Terence Newman to long-term deals on Tuesday that total more than $96 million.
Newman, who had a year remaining on his original contract from 2003, signed a seven-year, $51 million contract that included a $12 million signing bonus and more than $22.5 million in guaranteed money over the first three years.
Barber, who had yet to sign his restricted free agent tender of $2.561 million, instead was rewarded with a seven-year, $45 million deal with more than $16 million in guarantees, including a $12 million signing bonus.
