The Facts:
The Packers outbid several teams to re-sign Martin as a No. 2 tight end and fallback starter if they unexpectedly lose starter Bubba Franks as a transition free agent. He also had offers from Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Tampa Bay. Details of his contract were unavailable, but Martin is believed to have signed a multi-year deal that included a signing bonus around $250,000.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Martin's role this season will depend greatly on Franks, who hasn't drawn much interest from around the league. Although he has good speed, Martin has struggled to remain healthy enough to make a significant impact. Some observers believe a little more mental toughness would help Martin greatly.
