If Peyton Manning wanted to be a Miami Dolphin, he would have went to Miami FIRST, and signed at 4:01 EST on Wednesday. He doesn't want to go where the Front Office is in disarray. He doesn't want to go where he has the TOUGHEST road to the playoffs. He doesn't want to go where the fans of the team he plays for are out-numbered by the visiting team's fans AT HOME every game.

He DOES, however, want to go where he has the most control over the offense. I say Manning is a Cardinal before Sunday.
Indoor stadium, loyal fan base (even the sucky Cardinals sell out) that cheers for their team, Bidwells will spend $$, receiving core in prime, and Peyton can golf more in Phoenix than in Miami!

I would be surprised if the Dolphins even land a QB in free agency. I personally think if we are going to get any QB in FA, it is Flynn. He has the ties to Philbin and crew. BUT, Moore was pretty dang good for us last year considering what short time he had to pick up on things.

Since I live in the area and have seen him play in college....I will tell you the "Tom Brady" of this year's draft is KELLEN FRICKIN MOORE from Boise State! He is accurate, smart, reads defenses well, has a better than average arm. He is alot like Drew Brees. 6' tall, but has the accuracy and timing and vision. I guarantee he is the sleeper of the entire draft.

So, Fin fans, we will suffer this spring, summer, and fall......no matter what happens...because Dan Marino STILL isn't coming back......

;):crazy:
 
My thought is Manning is trying to determine what fair market value is, so he can ask a little more from Miami. He wants the Miami visit last so they could beat the other offers. I hope I am right.
 
He had a 6 hour meeting with the Broncos today, and it said to continue that meeting tomorrow. I'd say it's about over.
 
You are incorrect sir. If Miami is the favorite to land Manning, and Peyton has Miami at the top of his wish list, he goes to the other teams first to see if they can blow him away with an offer. If not, Peyton comes home to Miami and signs with the Fins next week.
 
I would disagree. I think Denver is playing the role Miami recently has in counting chickens and dealing in disappointment!
 
Are you kidding me? First of all, he will probably meet with Miami last, after all offers are in to drive up his asking price bc he knows Ross will pay. The cardinals have a horrible offensive line, and the only weapon they have on offense is Fitz. Doucet is horrible, and Beanie Wells is laughable.

In Miami Manning gets B-Marsh, Bess, Bush, and Wayne wants tocome here, too. Also, Miami has a much better line. We're a RT away from having a top 10 line if Long can stay healthy. By the way....Florida is the golf capital of the world buddy.

Disagree. Manning is using the Broncos and Cards as leverage. His agent isn't stupid, the more Manning makes the more he makes. You go to the other teams first to drive your price up, you go to your first choice last and work out a deal with other offers in hand. Negotiating 101. Same thing Fisher did to us with the Rams, he never was coming here. He used us to drive the price up, never intending to sign here. He visited his first choice last, with offers in hand and drove his price up. Don't jump off the ship before it's even sinking. Don't believe the media, they don't know any more than you or me.
 
If all the players and coaches who have used us to get better offers from other teams are any indication, you go first to the teams you're not as interested in.
