And the tannanbaum era has begun in Miami! We are the new New York Jets. Spend all our money on the "big splash" FA and be the offseason champions with guys w huge egos and character issues who soak up too much cash yet won't win us championships. It's sad. I used to laugh at the jets for these kinds of moves.
True. But they did sell a lot of seat licenses for their new stadium. And guess which owner will be looking to cash in on his new stadium upgrades over the next few years. I kinda feel sorry for the fans who can't see the similarities.
The Jets had 2 shots at a Superbowl if they had even a semblance of a real QB. They got to 2 AFC championship games without one. Miami has Tannehill. We can only wish he builds that well here. I'm sure us fans wouldn't mind a few years of cap hell etc to have 2 shots at a Superbowl. Like I said earlier our cap situation in 2-3 years is a blank slate. It's the perfect time to build a core and then draft around that core.
For what it's worth: Contract 6 years, $102M. Mando's blog. http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolp...son-welcome-to-the-remaking-of-a-defense.html
People have been laughing at OUR moves for well over the past decade. Glass Houses! We have to do something. Let Tannenbaum have his shot to build something. Worst case scenario is status quo right?
no I'm not,i would of done anything to draft this guy, He was andrew luck good coming out. see I look at it with the confidence that i could build the right team around him with limited resources that his contract would make me adhere to.
''The defense is the area of significant need this offseason because, well, it was 20th in the NFL in points. It was 24th in the NFL against the run. It gave up 37 points to the Jets in the season-finale. It gave up 35 points to Minnesota the week before that. It gave up 41 points to New England the week before that. It blew fourth-quarter leads against Denver. And Detroit. And Green Bay. It has regressed steadily starting in 2012.'' mandos blog
Yeah, I think I'm on board with getting Suh. I blasted the defense all season long. Give the defense some nasty to take the pressure off of Wake. Stuff the run, put some fear into opposing offenses. We need something on defense.
