Are you suggesting some agents (lawyers) might be less than honorable?
Hard to believe..........
Godchaux "resigned" that NFL future likely isn't with Miami

Flo is a defensive specialist. I trust his decision whatever it is on the defensive side of the ball.

Let's say they tie the truth down with a bunge cord . . . . a VERY loose bunge cord. Agents, after all, are in the sales business. That said, DG may get $10mm, but I doubt it

I think with the emergence of Raekwon Davis it spells the end for Godchaux.
I also think we might pick up a DT in the later rounds of the draft so I’d say thanks for your time with us but time to move on.

Probably a NT a real unit.
I don't think that is accurate, given the myriad of roles to which he has been exposed.
While a majority of his coaching experience has been on that side, he also served in offensive assistant positions, but perhaps more importantly, he has also been a scout and evaluator.

I would do a 1yr $5M prove it deal after the injury and a bad market. Hopefully he'll come back and take it.
It will change the overall amount of money available but won't change that there are teams out there with weaknesses that are going to need to bring in some predictable nfl talent.
The Dolphins have spent good money on Albert Wilson and Brandon Gibson when we were weak at WR. We've spent good money on Danell Ellerbe and Philip Wheeler when we were weak at LB. Money spent on second tier fas happens.
A guy like Godchaux will get a two or three year deal to gamble on his talent. Whether he sees the last year depends on circumstances.

Lets get those balls deep!!
I still can't believe he got a contract similar to what we have Suh.
Right on. So same as what I said but over the course of 4 years not 5 - ha has a big drop in year 3 but Miami wanted to resign him to a nice extension anyway... but he wanted, before his 4th season, a contract that paid him upper echelon money. When he had that insane 4th season where he led the NFL in hurries/hits combined, he parlayed it into the mega contract. Happy it wasn’t from us, but he was a good player while here.

It wasn’t so similar... Suh got more money and more guaranteed. And to OV defense, although I didn’t think he was worth the contract he got either, he led the NFL in hits/hurries and was an ascending 26yr old player the year he got it. There have been many worse contacts - our very own Mike Wallace is a great one.

I voted no... and I don't think his return is likely either... a part time DT isn't worth a whole lot.
Clearly... Wilkins and Davis are much better, so what we need is cheap depth and Godchaux is likely going to get a middle value type of contract... He can start for bad teams.

I remember I panned that draft in a YouTube comment, ranting that Miami didn't make one attempt at a player who had any chance to be great. It was underneath a video reviewing the Dolphins draft. Almost immediately I was attacked by other Dolphin fans, insisting it was one terrific pick after another.
That was the easiest recent draft to condemn immediately, due to the name on top. The only other time I felt that was was the Billy Milner draft
Godchaux can be a decent rotational 4-3 tackle somewhere else but he doesn't fit what Miami is trying to do right now
