i read on espn that it was 9mil before june first and 6.5 mil or so after june first. either way, they are way over the cap and will not find a noticably better qb out in the free agent market. especially someone with a low cap number.
secondly, miami would have to be the last team that he would want to play for. griese sounds like a good guy, but i think he would want to be free of the baggage that he would find here.
i would bet that they give him another year to get his crap together. he's shown potential. he had a 24 td season with 4 ints. that's what i call potential. but, something must have happenned since then.
as far as the dolphins go, i've seen guys on other sites who think getting griese is a dream come true. they say wannstedt doesn't have the guts to make this team better. who does have the guts to cut or trade a winning qb who makes less money for a qb who just got benched for a must win game. and in his place is a 16 year journeyman.
ps. i think i figured out what is up dolphin digest MB. I just read a post where a guy was saying that only a jew would want fiedler on his team. I could see it now. fiedler is part of a great jewish conspiracy to put a "jewish" jersey on the back of every christian kid in south florida. I hate to tell him that Sage is half jewish. He might start crying. holy crap. our qbs consist of two jews and a black guy. maybe it is a conspiracy.
