Past Dolphin Draft Holdouts...?

[spiral]

With The kid with man-boobs finally inking a deal in Cincy and Crabtree still unsigned in San Fran, it made me think. When was the last time a draft pick held out for a significant amount of time for us?

Last ones that come to mind that missed some camp would be Ronnie Brown and Chad Henne.

Does the name Jason Allen ring a bell? I remember he held out for a good while.

I can't remember how long Ronnie held out, Henne's holdout only lasted one practice. It was during that practice that all the final details of his contract were getting worked out. He was at the afternoon practice that same day.

I think he retired. Something about toast being burnt I think.. I don't know, couldn't really put together what he was trying to say.

Ronnie Brown is the only big name holdout I remember.

Nope. He signed before T.C.

[mikemosha90]

Nope. He signed before T.C.

Oh ok. For some reason I thought he did.

Randell the thrill Hill. He held out and was traded for a 1st round pick that turned out to be Troy Vincent

Also Ronnie Brown. He held out for three weeks and missed the first two preseason games.

Here is the article as proof. He missed much more than one practice

Didn't Teddy hold out?

No way. His family would have NOTHING to do with that.

Here is probably our two most famous holdouts. David Overstreet RB who decided to got to Canada when it could not be worked out and Joe Theisman who also went to Canada.
