Default Dallas Cowboys want to sign Hamlin to long-term deal

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcont...date.8529.html

One of the Cowboys' big off-season moves could turn into a long commitment.

Owner-general manger Jerry Jones said he would like to lock up free safety Ken Hamlin to a long-term deal.

Hamlin, who signed a one-year, $1.75 million contract in March, is tied for fourth in the NFL with five interceptions. That's tied for the team lead with cornerback Anthony Henry.

"He has a lot of savvy," Jones said of Hamlin. "He understands what's going on, and the more he understands, it's all going to make Hamlin a better player."

The Cowboys have a good relationship with Hamlin's agent, Kennard McGuire. He helped broker a six-year, $30 million contract with a $10 million signing bonus for center Andre Gurode in the off-season.

The Cowboys haven't opened talks with Hamlin's agent yet.

Honors for Romo: Tony Romo was named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week for his 311-yard, four-touchdown game against Green Bay. It's the fourth time Romo has won the honor and second time this season.

Romo won the award after November 2006 games against Arizona and Tampa Bay and after the 2007 season opener against the New York Giants.

He also was nominated for FedEx Air Player of the Week, along with Indianapolis' Peyton Manning and St. Louis' Gus Frerotte. Wade Phillips was nominated for Motorola Coach of the Week along with San Diego's Norv Turner and Carolina's John Fox. Fan voting for the two awards is on NFL.com through Thursday.
