anyone think clark haggans might be a dolphin now
I wanted him, for the right price. You can search all my posts, I was not all for throwing anything more than 10 million in guarantee on Pace [compared to Briggs], and when people were saying 20 million, that kind of scared me away and I didn't want him anymore. He's not worth the money, for our team.A couple of days agao Pace was walking on water on this board, now he is a 1 year wonder? Who knows, he may not pan out, but maybe he will, i am just happy we are being aggressive!
No, we are knocking the Jets for giving a $20M signing bonus to a one year wonder. Big difference between $22M gauranteed and $20M signing bonus paid all at once. That's a huge chunk of change paid for non-Pro Bowl player.
$20M in signing bonus means that money is GONE. It's not a massaging of the books. That money is physically GONE.
And another thing, antogonizing a Jets fan as a member of the Dolphins board is all fun and games. However, attacking a fellow Dolphin fan on the same board is a different issue. Especially when it's obvious, with an emoticon, that I was joking and jesting in good fun.
No need for the attack. Ease up.
Rotoworld's take on New York's big signing.............
"We love Pace's potential, but this is insane money for a player that's had one legitimately good season. The Dolphins and Cardinals weren't going to go this high. Pace will likely play weak outside linebacker in New York opposite LOLB Bryan Thomas. He could approach double digit sacks at that position."
You know we did not offer much less, so lets not act like the Jets are idiots since we probably only lost out by maybe a couple million.
and another thing..they are going to get Gholsten now in the draft and pay him big $???
OMG! what was there salary cap 5 days ago?
u know what they are doing? just like the bills when they traded people for other people and called it an upgrade but still put them in cap hell in the process and they still stunk!
They trade Vilma for Pace and Robertson for Jenkins...yippee! your the great MANGENIUS!
This situation reminds me of Damion Woody a few years ago. Came here loved the miami area, was wined and dined by Wanye H., we gave him a really good offer and he up and leaves for chicago without signing a contract.Then winds up signing there instead. It's all about the money now days. I like others on this board are just wondering where the jests are getting all this money to sign everyone? And D. Woody supposed to sign for 20 mill as well? Humm...At least it looks like JT is going to stay and that still pumps me up.We'll see how it all plays out after the draft.I just called my buddy and told him to get a message to Pace and tell him MIami said F*&^K um!!

The Jets has a different blue print. You are not rooting for a 1-15 team last I remember, so you would know that we would be going through HELL if we invested that much on this one player when we obviously have this #1 overall pick who may flirt with 30 million in guarantee and SOO many other needs.
