After shelling out millions at other positions, the Cowboys gave their star WR Terrell Owens a three-year contract extension Monday.

Owens has one year left on his current deal, giving him $34 million over the next four years ($13 million of which is guaranteed). The Cowboys have handed LT Flozell Adams, RB Marion Barber III, CB Terence Newman and QB Tony Romo huge deals recently, and they quietly signed Owens -- who has the most touchdown receptions in the NFC over the past two seasons -- to a deal that will likely enable him to finish his career in Dallas.

Commentary: This contract makes Owens one of the highest-paid receivers in the game. He's already one of the best, averaging 83 catches, 1,267 yards and 14 touchdowns per season since arriving in Dallas.

Fantasy Impact: He should be one of the first receivers taken in fantasy drafts, and there is no reason to expect anything other than a great 2008 season from Owens.
