billsfan1959 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 This team hasn't had this much talent in decades True. It is now up to Roman to utilize this talent while maximizing the strengths and minimizing the weaknesses of whatever QB emerges as the starter. I have faith he will do that.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Won't believe they aren't matching until Monday morning. Why doubt, Brother Thomas? I am sure the Fins told Clay they won't match, and are probably pulling the tag right now to do him a solid and to free up cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 So we can introduce him now right? Or do we technically still have to wait until the 5 days are over to make it "offical" CBF depends on if they file the paperwork? does it change your day at all if the PC is tomorrow or monday?

CBF again, simply telling a reporter means nothing - once they file paperwork, or the clock expires, it will be done. it sounds like its pretty darn close to done though, if not already.

Kelly the Dog Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) again, simply telling a reporter means nothing - once they file paperwork, or the clock expires, it will be done. it sounds like its pretty darn close to done though, if not already. I would imagine all they have to do is fax a note to the league office. Maybe even just rescind the tag like they could have at any time. It probably takes five minutes. In order for it to be officially official the league would have to study the contract itself, but they may have already. Not sure.

Not sure. id assume, which is always risky, that once filed with the league they got on it fast -- that way if there were any issues they could inform us and the dolphins who were deciding what to do. At this point its probably a very quick fax, like you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
