I get not wanting to deal him inside the division somewhat... But a 3rd was insane value for a FA... Wow!Rumor: Buffalo offered a 2nd round pick.
Rumor: A third round pick was on the table.
Doubt the first rumor, believe the latter.

The Landry situation sure seems like Lamar Miller & Vernon....we will "try" & sign him but that one team will come & overpay & everyone on this board will be mad until the season starts & probably until 2019 season unless Parker or Stills completely breakout next year.
Someone will give him $15mil. It will happen.
Absolutely, and I think Landry is the one going to get a surprise. I find it hard to believe that any team is going to pay him that including the Bears, 14-15 mill is just too high of an asking price. I hope this doesn't blow up in his face.I always thought the 12m number we heard in the Spring/Summer was going to be the max, don't see him getting 12 plus either. If anything his stock has dropped. There was posturing before season, more posturing, the baby momma, posturing and more posturing and here we set listening to more babble about 14-15 million. Somebody is in for rude awakening next month.
I think he’s more than just a slot receiver. He’s the best player on the team. He can catch, run, block, play ST and has intangible play making abilities. He can get deep down the hashes too. The pats won two SBs in the last 3 years w all “slot receivers” so I don’t understand the negative connotation associted. Meanwhile Dallas, Atlanta, Giants, Detroit w Calvin Johnson etc won “0” w these big all or nothing alpha guys.Yes, and it will probably be a dumpster fire franchise like Cleveland or Chicago. Well run franchises don’t pay $15 mil for slot receivers.
NE won those SBs without paying their receivers a huge amount of money... Meanwhile, Dallas, Atlanta, Giants, Detroit won "0" paying top 5 money to WRS...I think he’s more than just a slot receiver.

No doubt. There are a bunch of teams out there with tons of cap and nothing to spend it on. He'll get his money.Someone will give him $15mil. It will happen.
.....because I don't believe that Gase wanted him after this season, I believe Gase intention was to let him walk all along. Think about this for a second, this Dolphins franchise in known to spend money when they want something, even overspending, and we don't lock down Landry (the supposed heart and soul of this team) to a long term contract last year? It's possible Gase believes (IMO) that landry is more trouble than he is worth and is willing to let him walk. In this scenario, the Dolphins get to come to the fan base and say "we made a fair offer but couldn't come to an agreement." The organization saves face and still picks up a third next year, what's the difference between this year and next year?They can’t resign him now.. he’s to expensive. But why not resign him before the season. When they signed Kenny stills. Stop waiting until the player has all the leverage.
Well yeah I bet Matt Moore probably made about the same this year as Marino did in his first post rookie contract. Gas was under a dollar a gallon in 1986 also.Spotrac has some pretty cool stats on salaries past and present. The have a new feature called Market value. Landry's is set at 13.8M. Looks like it is the average of the 5 players in there position with the stats closest to what Jarvis put up this last season.

Just out of curiosity I wanted to know how much Dan Marino made in salary over his career. You can find it out there. He made $51.5M over 17 seasons. Tannehill just surpassed $50M over 6 seasons. Ted Ginn Jr $32M in 11 seasons.
