In celebration of the signing here's a sig I've been working on, if anybody wants it, feel free. There are a few more of classic players in the Graphics Forum I posted this morning. Again, help yourself.
Not what I would have done, but at least we have him locked up and can move on to other things. Hopefully, an extension for Long is just around the corner. Until and unless Tannehill develops into a top 10 QB, Long is our most valuable asset.
Well Earned! The #'s seem very affordable. Both sides should be very happy. Much easier to go into the season with one of Wake / Long signed than NEITHER. Jake will be next. I suspect the Dolphins want to protect themselves a bit with regards to his recent injury history though. Walk a fine line. It's not going to be an easy extension. But they've got plenty of time to get it done. But I think they got it right in extending Wake first. As we all know, he was vastly underpaid... relatively speaking of course.
Fanfu&$intastic..And very well deserved for the complete linebacker. For those who argued against ripping up his current contract just because he was under contract, well, you were wrong, Ireland shows good business ethics, that contract for this up and coming year was dirty and disrespectful to a player of this caliber. Now he can take Olivier Vernon under his wing, maybe let him move into his TV less apt, know what i'am sayin.. Big Jake next..
the $60m approx of cap space in 2013? Suspect Wake's contract knocks that down to the low to mid 40's. Plenty of room to get Jake extended and push some of that cap hit into this year since we're not using it on anyone else apparently. Knock the cap room down to the mid 20s to 30m range for 2013. That's not bad.
I can't wait to see that scream for four my years Fin, love it when he does that sh&$.Sometimes I worry that he's using up so much energy with that celebration, lol.. "RELEASE THE KRACKEN"!!!!!!
The good news has been pouring in lately and it's about time! Great job by everyone to get this deal done. He's earned it!
Cam Wake has to be one of the best feel good stories ever. Congrats to that man for his acccomplishments.
CW is a gamer and I have no worries that he will be the kind of player that after he gets his lucrative contract takes his foot off the gas pedal.
Glad that got done. Wouldn't have been good for that to drag into training camp or affect his offseason preparation.
How does the contract work? Is it 4 years plus this one now? Meaning really 5 years of 49M plus the 650k he is making now?
Cam Wake holds out of voluntary workouts for a few days, thread goes 16 pages. Cam Wake signs extension, thread goes 2 pages. lol Wonder what that says.
Look at the stinkin rhomboids on that dude, it looks like he has a 2nd *** on his back the crack is so deep..lol. He's got an easy 4 years of play in him
