Packers out of Arrington sweepstakes, see link

Maybe now Brett Favre will officially retire. :lol:
 
Saban can wait for the Giants to make an offer. Than Saban can match the money from the Giants, And Arrington will sign with Miami

I still think that if Saban matches the money from the Giants, Arrington will sign with Miami

I don't know why everyone has to be a Dolphin if it's the same money. If I remember correctly he originally said he wanted to stay in the NFC East. This would achieve that. Maybe Miami was never really in this? Maybe, just maybe not everyone prefers Miami over other great cities, like NY.. Personally, for me, unbiasedly, if the money were the same, I would sign with NY because they may be closer to the SB than Miami, they have less question marks as of right now then the Phins do.

1. A healthy QB
2. One of the top 3 RB's in the game
3. A proven WR/TE tandem..
4. A more solid defense

Chambers was great last year and McMichael was better than avg., but neither of these guys have come close to performing at the levels that Plaxico and Shockey have. I think NY would definitely be higher on the list based off of a what's in place. Miami has potential, but that's all it is right now is potential.. I think the only place we have the edge on them as we sit RIGHT NOW is with the coaching staff. We have a damaged goods QB right now that none of us know what were getting yet, we have an unproven RB that we have yet to see the best of (hopefully), but we don't really know for sure, and we have a very inconsistent WR/TE corps. While we are all optimistic about this team going into this year, there are still plenty of issues.... No one knows how this team will gel, if there will be chemistry issues, etc. It will take DC (if he's ready) probably a good 3 or 4 games to adjust to the offense and our players before he gets comfortable, if he ever gets comfortable after that type of injury. I think there is a damn good chance alot of you are setting yourselves up to be extremely dissapointed. While I love the optimism and strides we've made to improve, there is still many mountains to climb and I stay realistic. I think we're a 10 win team next year (at best).

Is RW with you? have you been in a tent for the last 10 months? Are you kidding me - the Giants are closer to the SB? Healthy QB? It's Eli freaking Manning for God's sakes! You would rank him over Culpepper? He's healthier - I'll give you that but what has he done? Tiki is tough but another year of pounding on his body. WR??? Did you really say Paxico is more consistent? :sidelol: WOW!! No Miami has performed at his level? Maybe for 1 game! He was run out of Pitt as a headcase. I think I have read almost everything and then BAMMMMM! The guy is the definition of headcase - he's consistent - Speechless!! TE - Yep Shockey is pretty consistent - when he plays! You would rather have the Giants O weapons than DC, Chambers, Booker and McMike? WOW!! BTW RB is not unproven - the guy played almost the whole year and if you watched a game you would have seen a stud RB that can do everything including block and catch out of the backfield - he is truly a 3 down back. At 235 lbs RB can break it outside or pound it up the middle - can Tiki do that? Not to take anything away from him cause I think he is great but don't diss RB.

You must be a closet Giants fan to write this - incredible.
 
So it looks like it will come down to us and the Giants. Seems like IF he can't get a deal done with the Giants, then he will probably sign with us as his backup plan.
 
I do not care at all any more, if we get lavar it will let us flex in the upcoming draft, but his salary is also going to be huge. If we don't first round backer like greenway, lawson, or wimbley or if we go in another position like reciever or saftey theres always the 3rd and 4th, with players like Mclover,Harylson, or Mark Anderson. All I know after the 30th we should have an impact outside backer.

This is ridiculous, we are all Dolphins fans here, but the Giants are a solid team with a lot of weapons. I don't think anyone believes the Dolphins have a better O than the Giants. I mean my Miami has a shot, but I believe the consensus around the league is the Giants are a lot closer.

Thanks for pissing in my Cornflakes!!!!

1. We may have a healthy QB that is in the top 5 in the league.
2. Probably the #1 tandem in RB's in the league. If not at least a top back!
3. Chris and Randy are more than proven.
4. Our Defense more than holds it own! (which is the only downside he may not want to come to a place where he must play seconds to Taylor and Thomas)

Edit:

1. Granted Shockey posted better stats but did he have to play as much protection??

2. Plaxico posted 1214 rcving yards with 7td's

Chambers was only 1118 rcving yrs with 11 t'ds and we may add 92 rushing yards
