I'am really frustated this offseason and heres is why : - Zach called publicly for a 1 day signing and retiring in dolphin uniform........no call back from our front office.................hey guy wake up give fans and zach this pleasure moment and sign him to be our LB coach ! - JT will sign with NYJ - perhaps RB will be traded Only the dansby signing save our FO for now.........but with the draft approaching............the deadline come for them too I mean if we don't draft a legit n° 1 WR and a solid OLB and prospect at NT, this will be the more hearbreaking offseason since Marino retired ! JMO
I feel your pain, but: 1. If there gonna bring back Zach for a day it will happen in august or Sept. so they get the most publicity for it. I think it will happen. 2. If Jason wanted to be a Jet he would have signed already. Dont see it. 3. If we lose Ronnie it will be for good compensation IMO. I dont wanna lose him but i could see the value of moving him now. Keep your head up we are the mighty mighty Dolphins!
Well, keep in mind FF83 that "if" they are going to do that for Zach Thomas they would be better served to do it during a game, that is the business aspect of doing so. JT may not have a place on the Dolphins anymore, but he might, nothing is certain at this point. Ronnie Brown has finished two of the last three seasons on the sideline with an injury, he does the Dolphins no good if he is not playing. And Zach Thomas has been approached to handle the Dolphins Radio Program at the new radio station carrying Dolphins coverage, supposedly the new show launches sometime this month.
There is no way they cut a player from the team for Zach to have his one day contract during a game. That is what would have to happen in your scenario. Most likely, IF they do it, it will be during the beginning stages of preseason so that he can sign, retire and nothing will be affected, roster wise. Now, if they did that and then did a halftime, ring of honor for Zach during a game, I could see that, and would be all for it.
Something like that, except the ring of honor should be during a halftime the retirement should be sometime this summer. Either way they won't do it until sound marketing calls for it.
I'm just getting plain tired of the way the f/o is handling just about everything. Just seems to me the show no respect for what Zach and Jason have done over the last 15 years. makes me sad/mad As for Ronnie.... I understand he has been hurt, but both injuries were more or less "freak accidents" I really don't think his overall durability or toughness are in question. At least not with me. When he is playing, he is one if not the best all-purpose back in the league. He is by far the best back (imo) to play in a fins uniform. I only hope he is able to stick around and show everyone how good he is.
Shown enough respect to give Zach Thomas a radio show... If they're going to sign him to a one day contract for him to retire, it will probably happen during the preseason, not now. JT is the one showing no respect. This would be the second offseason doing so under Parcells. The FO said they want to wait until the draft to make a decision on JT. How dare them want to do what's right for the team...
Agreed, make him honorary captain for the day or make it "Zach Thomas Day." We did the same for Richmond Webb in the middle of the season a few years ago. They dont cut a player when someone signs a 1 day contract, it is completely ceremonial.
I feel your pain... add the Matt Roth release to that list for me , AND all these JETS fan in my office its going to be a long day for me but i feel things will get better.... i hope
Yeah, this seems a typical type of Dolphins offseason so far in that they seem as to not have done enough to improve this team. Nor been as aggressive as they need to be. 1. Sign JT, let him battle for a spot and win one once again. 2. Do WHATEVER it takes to sign a ligitimate receiving threat! 3. Draft with precision and get at least two starters... THIS SEASON! 4. Focus on sweeping the JETS again... and AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!!
it was worse when we lost jt and zach in the same year. ive gotten over Jt. i f we resign him ok if we dont oh well. hes not that good anymore and ill be suprised if he makes the whole year w/o injury.zach will retire a dolphin as will Jt . the offseason is just getting started so lets not end the world yet.
There is a lot of IF's in that list. I'll save my opinion on the subject matters until after each has fully played out and more importantly the reasoning behind each.
