    Any guesses?

    I'm ganna say it will take something in the neighborhood of 4 years - $60 mil with $20-25 mil up front (that averages $15 mil per year)

    8-10M plus easy to reach and substantial incentives for the first year, bigger numbers after that

    Left SFL, but never the Fins...
    Don't think it matters. He'll get top dollar and that'll be that...If they sign him, it won't really matter what they give him...

    What? I thought he was going to get an incentive laden, salary cap friendly deal?

    I'm pretty sure that deal would put the Dolphins over the salary cap. So who are you cutting loose Long, Marshall or Dansby?

    You wouldn't have to cut any of them. Just restructure their contracts.

    if it comes down to money, whatever it is I believe Ross has it covered
    I'm thinking more along the lines
    of Wayne and/or Saturday as incentives for Manning to make the commitment

    That's a great idea. Let's restructure the contracts of players in their prime to sign a guy that may or may not be able to throw a 12 yd out that isn't a pick six. $7.5M max.

    Clearly an oversight on how it would play out.
