a realistic franchise-tag candidate after a poor season that ended on injured reserve.

The franchise number for cornerbacks will be more affordable ($10-11 million), and Smith has missed just one game in his four-year career. The Dolphins would certainly prefer to lock up Smith with a lucrative extension. But either way, it sounds like he’s not going anywhere.

WTF has he done besides give up TD to warrant a big pay day?

I'll believe it when I see it

I have advocated tagging Smith for awhile now. Corners are hard to find. Keeping elements of the D together is a must.

Good corners are hard to find. Smith doesn't qualify.

Yes he does.

[Gonzo]

Yes he does.

No, he doesn't.

[Hayden Fox]

No, he doesn't.

If he made the open market, I bet he gets paid like Cortland Finnegan.

This team has to be about keeping its talent not giving it away. Who do you presume the Fins replace him with?

Again, he DOES qualify as a quality corner.

$5.6 million in 2013 and $6.4 million in 2014 in doing so they
raised the price it will cost to retain Smith.

David Canter must be licking his chops knowing the Dolphins have set the bar
and Sean Smith will be well north of Pattersons salary numbers if Smith resigns in Miami

Where do you guys suppose to find quality corners? ****ty draft for corners and the FA market is just as pricey as you are complaining the Smith deal to be.
