Fins interested in Gators kicker Eddy Pineiro

Being a fan didn't help us keep Parkey who i did hope we would lock up for a few years. I'm kinda over going with these young inexperienced kickers. It seems like we've been doing it for a while now.
UNECESSARY.

Dude got paid a good contract to leave. Can’t blame him.
 
I don't.... I blame management. I mean why would you not want to keep a good reliable,young kicker that ALSO happens to be a fan a the franchise he's playing for. It just made too much sense i guess.

He got good money to leave. We couldn't pay that at the time.

Why do people continue to think the only factor in determining if a player reaches free agency is if the team wants the player or not? Parkey signed a one year deal last year and wanted to see what his value was on the free agent market. Unless you're saying offer him a great deal well over his projected market value to see if he'll agree than then he would have stayed, but it makes no sense for a 6-10 team to over pay a player to get him to stay, especially a kicker. I'm just saying people need to remember Parkey made the choice it wasn't a case of Miami not wanting him. More of a case of the team not being able to pay him what some other teams were willing to pay.

It's good to know that there are people here that would be happy giving a kicker the 3rd highest guaranteed contract in the NFL.
 
As long as they don't waste a draft pick on him. Rookie kickers are a totally random preposition. You have as good a chance with a UFA as with the top-ranked prospect
 
Kids got a powerful leg with accuracy. I won’t be mad if they spend a late round draft pick on the kid.
