If the Dolphins don't remove his transition tender (which they probably won't), are you guys going to bump this thread for the next 5 days? That will probably set a TBD record for "most excitement over a marginal player" since...since....ever?

Way too much hand-wringing for a guy that barely cracks the list of Top 10 TE's.

so much misinformation...

Well it does take a potential team with more cap space out of the race for him, but yeah, that could certainly happen. Also there's the possibility he never intended to leave Miami in the first place...

Wow, that's huge for us.

I thought that whole "house shopping" thing was a pretty transparent ploy to drive up his price. Why the heck would you go house shopping under the transition tag lol? So silly. I think Cleveland is a more likely destination than us -- they have much more cap space to work with.

I like the signing. I'm still certain we will be drafting a QB next month, and it's intriguing that Taylor's skill set is very similar to Brett Hundley's - both a match for Roman's read option. Good possibility we enter camp with 4 QB's.

Not getting one of the top two forwards will be a complete disaster and there is no sugarcoating it.

%^&$ing Leafs what a poor effort.

Dorian? Is he related to Lupati?

It's a great point but a lot of fans are simply unable to see that. They need to have a physical body in front of them with a skill set to judge. In an era where rookie salaries have been neutered thus skyrocketing the price for free agents, draft picks have never been more valuable in the history of the NFL. But without a name to attach to them, they are just too easy for the casual fan to marginalize. One of the more moronic phrases that has been parroted this offseason is that "we don't need draft picks because we're trying to win now." There isn't a /wallbash emoticon big enough for idiocy like that.

Not a great arm but boy can he run. Maybe Roman has plans to use him in some read option sets? IIRC the Ravens considered converting him to WR out of college.

Not yet. But he'll be entering his 10th season at age 32. Saints fans are saying he's been getting voted into Probowls purely on name recognition the past few years, and his play dropped significantly last year. Might be a good bridge if we can get him to sign a reasonable 1-2 year deal (probably not likely).

He had to stay in the AFC East, didn't he?

Wow that's terrible. I guess there is a clause that they get the 2016 pick back if he doesn't start X amount of games. But still...

Deserves a bump.

Yup. @NFL_Access "We are not affiliated with the National Football League" LOL

Yeah, he certainly is. I can see why that did not sit well with BB.

Perfect nickel CB to defend Gronk IMO

No, we're not.

32 at the start of the season.

Nobody saw that one coming.

Now they have someone to throw to on the 1-yard line.

That will certainly be the key. Cap hits are $10.4M over the last 3 years, but we can get away from it rather painlessly after 4 years if things take an unexpected turn.
