Once the industry realized Anderson could be had without compensating the Broncos with a draft pick, much less a second rounder, nine teams contacted his agent Peter Schaffer during the tampering window Monday and Tuesday to express their interest.

Add in the Broncos and one-third of the league were in on Anderson, who is considered a rare four-tool (blocking, receiving, rushing and smarts) back.

The C.J. sweepstakes eventually came down to a Final Four of Miami, Chicago, New England and San Francisco. And then it was whittled to Chicago and Miami. John Fox, the Chicago Bears’ head coach, has always preferred a two-back system and wanted Anderson to pair with Jeremy Langford.

The Bears even had the richest offer at four years, $19 million. Anderson nearly picked the Bears as he was about to board a flight from the San Francisco airport to Chicago on Wednesday afternoon.

Instead Anderson went to Miami and its four-year, $18 million offer in large part because of his familiarity with Adam Gase’s offense. Gase, the Dolphins’ new head coach, was the Broncos’ record-setting offensive coordinator in 2013-14.

That's certainly nice to see.
 
Man you beat me to it by split seconds. Feel good story though! That's 2 ex players that took less money to be with Gase. Two more than Philbin.

I threw that link up as quick as I could and posted it. Added in the rest after.

You got to be on your best game to beat Daytona.
 
Gase is awesome. FH will figure that out one of these days
 
Still don't know much about gase' coaching style, but this is a good sign
 
When you continue hearing the gushing player accolades regarding Gase, it sure sounds a helluva lot more like sincere enthusiasm than it does obligatory lip-service! This is very encouraging.
