PITTSBURGH - Pittsburgh Steelers rookie offensive tackle Max Starks signed a three-year contract Monday worth $1.45 million, including a $530,000 signing bonus.

Starks, a third-round draft choice, was a left tackle at Florida but will get the chance to win a starting job at right tackle. He will make the NFL minimum of $230,000, $305,000 and $385,000 over the next three seasons.

Starks' signing leaves the Steelers with only one unsigned draft pick - quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, their first round pick.

The Steelers are hopeful of signing Roethlisberger before or shortly after they open training camp Friday in Latrobe.
