Arrington

I am sure this news would not even be out if Saban didn't think he was worth the price, what ever it is.

jacksonville will get him. i am angry about it, but they are in a better position cap-wise to present lavar with the large contract he wants.

nick wont overpay. but he will find us a great olb in the draft

that would be wicked if we sign him

Do some of you guys read?

Or do you just like to see yourselves type??? The man just said Fox Sports Radio reported LaVar is close to signing with us, not Jacksonville.

I just get a kick out of some people coming on this site and acting like their statements are the "end-all be-all" truth. Especially when there are reports that the opposite is true.

did anyone else hear that LaVar is close to signing with us? there has to be other places reporting that if it is true. please be true.

wow
sign him NOW

but i dont think it will happen tonight

but i think its just a rumor
why would this just now come out at 2 AM ??

yah i know, nothing will materialize until tomorrow but someone has to know what he is thinking or leaning towards alittle bit.

Reports are like ******* you fool, every station has one. Look at Vince Young's work out today. Chris Mortensen reported that Vince Young's preformance may have raised more questions than answers today, meaning he didn't do very well, while Sean Salisbury gave Vince an A- because he couldn't, "in good conscience", give Vince a solid A so early in March, w/e the heck that means. So there you go. Two guys who both report for ESPN news (It doesn't get more professional than ESPN), both looking at the same exact work out, and both reporting totally different information. Your problem is that you're so emotionally tied up in the Phins aquiring Arrington that you'll jump like a cheerleader at the sound of any radio station who could aswell be misinformed, as all information comes from sources who have sources so forth and so on, and those of you who have played telephone in kindergarden know what thats like, or the station could very well be assuming about Arrington just for the ratings, or even reporting misinformation given by Poston sources to purposley make other teams come out form behind the shadows . You don't know, I don't know, and some radio station on satellite only wishes they knew. What you would know if you could unclinch your cornhole for 5 seconds is this A) Saban doesn't spend big money in FA, he's proven that so far in his career. B)Arrington will definitely be looking for Julian Peterson money which leads to C) Unless Arrington decides to play for Miami due to motivation beyond monetary demand, he will more than likely sign the contract Saban will not offer him, in Jacskonville. Do you need a radio station to give you that kind of common sense? Hey, I hope Arrington signs too- beast of a player the man is. But don't always believe what you read and always question everything you hear.

With or without Arrington, our defense is going to be incredible. Capers will see to that...

Regardless of reports from Fox radio, I don't think Arrington is close to signing with us. We aren't in the ball park in terms of cap space. If we couldn't afford Peterson, there's very little chance Arrington will seek anything less....

These "Arrington close to signing with Miami " are all rumors in my opinion. Then again, I could be wrong...

PHINZ RULE!!!

All of these "Heightened interest in Arrington" and "Arrington is close to signing with the Dolphins over the Jags" reports are completely bogus. The DOlphins have not even spoken to Arrington's agent since MOnday.

LB STICKER SHOCK?
The Dolphins and the agent for former Pro Bowl linebacker LaVar Arrington haven't talked about a contract since Monday, and sticker shock may be the reason.
Agent Kevin Poston said Wednesday he last spoke with the Dolphins to tell them of linebacker Julian Peterson's imminent signing with Seattle. Poston, who represents both players, believes the Peterson contract set the market at the position, so he hopes Arrington will get an a similar offer.
Peterson signed a six-year, $55 million deal that included an $11.8 million signing bonus.
''Some teams were saying they had Julian ranked No. 1 [among free agent linebackers] and LaVar ranked No. 2,'' Poston said. ``Others said LaVar was first and Peterson next.''
An NFL source said Wednesday that Miami is unlikely to reach that high a price tag to acquire Arrington, thus the lull in talks.

Ok, so what are the odds that when I log on around Lunch time tomorrow, that FinHeaven will have a news item on the front page that reads "Dolphins Sign Arrington"

According to the Herald, talks of signing have turned lull, he wants to much money, I truly doubt we will sign for that price tag. It wouldn't be smart to pay that much money, we can do better things with all that cash.

That was yesterday's news, could be different ...

All that could be different today. The news is too fast for the written word to keep up with. We shall see.

that still holds no value...remember how media outlets said that Brees was going to sign with miami...and that he wanted miami over new orleans...and how brees was close to signing with miami and we know how that turned out.

which i was very happy getting culpepper over brees.

go fins!!!

I keep hearing on Sportscenter and such that they think the Pats are going to try to make a push at him since they have so much cap room and arent resigning any of there players. DO you think this has any truth to it or is it just stupid *** ESPN speculation as usual. Just like when they say "Harrington may start in Miami"
