@ProFootballTalk Five years, $30.775 million for Dolphins WR Brian Hartline http://wp.me/p14QSB-7yKB

@JeffDarlington Dolphins WR @brianhartline tells me he just signed his deal to stay in Miami: "It feels great to know the hard work has paid off."

‏@JeffDarlington Brian Hartline's deal is worth nearly $31 million over five years. He just left the team's facility moments ago after signing the deal.

@JeffDarlington Hartline: "It feels great to know perseverance has paid off. Now, it's about winning games. I feel like we're on right path. We're close."

‏@JeffDarlington Hartline is excited to see what else the team does during free agency, since the franchise has the cap space to make moves. Big week ahead.

@AdamHBeasley Text from Hartline: “So happy and blessed to be here in Miami. Now let’s go win some championships.”

Dolphins keep Brian Hartline

At a time when many expect the Dolphins to make a play for receiver Mike Wallace once free agency opens, they have finalized a deal to keep one of their most productive pass catchers on the team.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the Dolphins have agreed to terms with receiver Brian Hartline.

It’s a five-year, $30.775 million contract, with $12.5 million in fully-guaranteed money.

A fourth-round pick in 2009 from Ohio State, Hartline had a career-best 74 catches for a career-high 1,083 yards in 2012. If the Dolphins land a field-stretcher like Wallace, those number could go up.

We don't know the details of the contract but it certainly looks like it's structured well on our favor.

Not bad. So he kept it closer to the $6mil instead of the $6.5mil. Plus I bet you he has a first couple years similar to the way they structured Bowe's contract where it's a minimum salary only counting $4mil against the cap the first couple of years. So wouldn't be surprised if Hartline's cap hit this year is a mere $2mil against the cap

It is pathetic. Ireland is going to need some ointment cause Rosenhaus just bent him over and didn't even use lube.
