These guys both need to be re-signed ASAP.

I won’t get into how ridiculous it is that Gesicki sees so many offensive plays from the sideline, I just want him signed for the new regime. And Needham, well we will needham next year as I don’t see both X and Byron Jones still being a Dolphin.
 
For the right price I would be ok with it. But I am not giving Gesicki 14 mil per year or close to it. There are too many holes on this team that need to be secured before thinking TE is a priority signing at an elevated price.

Nick Needham on the other hand should be locked up quickly or he will be gone next year.
 
With the dolphins it’s opposite day that means they’ll let them go for a song
 
We can franchise Gisicki for 9 million instead of paying the ridiculous sum of 13.5 mill his agent is demanding. Franchise Gesicki for 2 years.
I agree with signing Needham right now. If Needham hits FA, his value will be high.

Agree on not paying Gesicki 13.5M. That’s outrageous. I wonder if he is being under utilized because of this contract issue they know they will be facing. If so, that is equally outrageous. He should be on the field 90% of the time, regardless of his current contract situation.
 
I doubt the Dolphins will resign any players during the season. With how the team is falling apart, Ross has probably told Grier to not spend any more money at this time and wait and see how the rest of the year turns out.

The next GM and HC should have the opportunity to have as much cash available as possible as well as all their draft picks to rebuild the team after this season. I think Gesicki and Needham should be part of the team going forward but that should be up to the next regime to make that decision and not Grier and Flores.
 
Mike G was awesome yesterday. I've not been his biggest supporter. I advocated strongly for Pitts this off season and to trade away Gesicki. But the guy has really stepped up his play these last few weeks and his energy is something we lack in other areas, with too many of our lot especially on D walking around in a zombie like state with "oh shucks" body language. The chemistry between him and Tua, which I think was lacking big time last season, is clearly starting to develop and he's more than worthy in my view of the big pay cheque we will have to write. Other thing I like about the kid is unlike the other receivers he's generally available to play.

Needham, should be a slam dunk re-sign too, he's been consistent and never let us down, obviously not on X's level but more than capable of playing a valuable role for this team. Give him the contract he deserves.
 
With the posts and reports on players being disgruntled with Flores and if there is any truth in them then I'm not sure Needham will want to sign a new deal.
 
No rush right now. We need to get the new GM in place first

Here is my concern. Needham, makes 900k this year. We could sign him right now to a new contract, probably 5 million a year.
If we let Needham enter FA, his price might be 10 million. It's very possible.
Too many teams are desperate for solid CBs.

I have no idea why any player who can leave Miami after this season would want to remain a Dolphin if Flores and Grier are still with the organization.
In fact I love Tua as the teams QB but if I was him, he should be glad to get traded if it means he wouldn’t have to play for Flores anymore.

keep in mind whatever this team should do, they'll probably do the opposite
 
These are 2 of the only guys on the entire team I'd want back next year, but you lose a lot of bargaining power when you give a scrub like Baker 13 mil -- which i said at the time and was shat on yet again. This team is too stupid to figure out which guys are worth re-signing so I'm just gonna assume they both walk.


Edit: some poster in the Baker re-signed thread picked a fight with me saying Baker was better than Lavonte David based on blah blah blah I'm a moron. Posters agreed with him. There's zero benefit of being right when you're a Dolphins fan.

Well, at some point you have to start building the core group of guys and paying them. Can't be in transition stage all the time.
