So what would u guess we gave him in salary?PhinKev said:I bet that 10% is the signing bonus. He wants 13 and they want to give him 8.

I wouldn't worry too much about that. From what I've heard Rick is no push over and the Dolphins are known for getting great value on contracts. Just take a look and see how many teams are loaded with playmakers like the Dolphins (and we're not really in cap trouble either). If they are really close to agreeing on something I'm sure it's reasonable. Hopefully.FinFan24 said:....hmm evryone is celebrating and cheering like crazy. I sure as hell wouldnt be if we payed him like Jevon Kearse. That would mean the end of CC and McMike(or one of em, not suree exactly.) Priorities for me go- CC,McMike,Wale

This guy ought to be gratefull a team like us took him in for TWO years! while he did nothing!then he has a mediocre year and last year a good year.so for that one year he gets kearse type money?NO friggin way!I happen to think he is over rated...and if he is as good a kearse why didnt teams jump on him ? Exactly! not to mention i think we have more young DE's who can fill the spot.And as far as him getting money that chambers should get... well chambers better have a hell of a year for him to even rank worth resigning! hes good ... but still not living up to his "potential " that i hear about every year...but rarely see. :shakeno:
Laughed my a** off at that one.13isgr81 said:I don't care if anyone else appreciates it, that was funny.
At least you got someone to back up what you hear this time huh Flurry?Finsflurry said:I heard it too, however the guy who reported it is known as quite the bser, he's already said we've traded for Brunell Ramsey Pace and Ogden this offseason lol. I'd say he's on par with Hacksaw and Prisco as far as outlandish rumors go, so I wouldn't put too much merit into what he has to say...

Muck said:Because in addition to the huge contract he's asking for, Miami wouldn't budge from their demand of a 1st and 3rd round draft pick. That's why.
The Bears admitted that they would have given up the picks for him. But the big contract in addition to them was too much for them.
Give him a blanking quarterback and watch his numbers, Jay Fiedler's receivers will never reach the Pro Bowl because he can't get them the ball consistently enough.badfoot said:I am sorry but i am probably in the minority when i say I dont want ogun on this team. here is a guy that had ONE decent season acrosss from a perenial probowler(taylor) and now he wants HOW MUCH?

We have over 4 million in cap space tied up in Jay Fiedler this year, that is where Chambers money resides.ckparrothead said:That whole thing about either give Ogun what he wants or sign Chambers long term...I don't think people should take that as gospel...because we really don't even know if its true.
We here on the message boards (myself included) have speculated that this may be the case, however, we don't know that it is the case. I think a few of us started speculating to this effect and it sort of snowballed to a point where people are 100% convinced that we can't have both of them and that is probably not true...
