Now don't shoot the messenger here i am just reporting what I heard on WQAM this morning on the Joe Rose show. A guy called in who Joe seemed to know and respect and said he had some inside information on 2 moves the Dolphins are getting ready to make. He would not reveal his internal source inside the Fins organization.
The first one was the resigning of Jason Taylor. There seems to be a snag in the contract though, and JT wants 2 years, 4 million and the Dolphins have settled at 2 years, 2 million, with obvious escalators. The guy said the deal should be done at anytime and he will be a Dolphin
The second one, came out of left field . . . the Fins tryin to obtain Tony G via trade and they are working out a restructured contract to get him. Now he did not say how much we would give up to get him or who we would give up, he just said it was in the works.
Please, until confirmed these are only rumors, but those would be 2 great additions to this team . . . a HUGE pass catching threat with Gonzalez and we still got Fasano and Martin (unless 1 of them are traded in the deal) and then a pass rush threat obviously with Taylor, something we desperately need. I honestly thought it was going to be us trading for Anquan, but by him saying Gonzalez, that makes me feel like damn . . . why would he say Tony Gonzalez . . . I dunno, Fins have been looking for more picks, maybe it is to acquire a guy like Tony G. Only time will tell.
