Free agent LB Calvin Pace is reportedly looking for "Joey Porter money."
He should probably be looking for more. Pace has been in deep contract talks with the Dolphins, but his asking price is reportedly slowing them down. The old regime in Miami gave Porter a five-year, $32 million deal last March.
Dolphins signed QB Josh McCown to a two-year, $6.25 million contract.
We'll pencil him in as their new starter, although McCown will have to hold off John Beck and most likely a draft pick. McCown, 28, has always had the physical traits (arm, athleticism, size), but never completed more than 60.4% of his passes or had a 7.0+ YPA in a season. He is not the long-term answer, but that's also not what the Dolphins are expecting from him. Feb. 29 - 5:07 pm et
