I doubt Price signs with Miami. I mean, as much as I hate to demean Miami, who would you rather line up with as a WR: Gus or Brady?
Anyway, Price is over rated and isn't worth the cap room we'd be sacrificing for him.
I put myself in the postion of a reciever looking for a long term commitment, because after all, stability is the only thing that you CANT guarantee in this league. So you'd like to find a job somewhere where you can finish out the next ten years of your career.
Thats why I think he'll chose Miami. I of course, could be wrong, but heres my reasons.
Think about the Pats. They won three bowls in four years. They're a dynasty. Yes, but like all good things (or evil things in this case) it has to end. The pats can't stay golden forever, and they seem to be in the waning position after their coaches took a hike for bigger and better things. Like every dynasty, they will shift to the backseat in the next few years to a new up and comer team ready to floor it to the superbowl. You want to be on a winning team, to be PART of a dynasty, not saying "Boy, I wish I was here to see Romeo Crennel's defense in action" etc.
The Cowboys. Come on, we all know that Bill Parcell is not the amazing coach we all thought, and that perhaps is success came from the great staff around him. Much like Jimmy Johnson of the Dolphins Era, BP has been exposed as the overrated coach that he is, and will soon crawl back into retirement, leaving the Cowboys up in the air for another half decade before they bring in a Saban to clean up his mess.
Which is the perfect segue to my next point.
Saban. The janitor of Huizenga High, brought in to clean up the mess Wannstedt, Johnson and Spielman made in the food fight that was last season. The dolphins had thier problems. They had their 4-12 season, and now are on the rise. The exact opposite of the Patriots, we are on the rise, and everyone around the league knows it. It might not be this year. It might not be next, but Peerless Price knows that he can be a contributing player to the next possible dynasty. The next Billy Belichick, the next big thing.
So I hope he makes the right decision.
Plus, would you really want to practice in the blustery north east?
