Will Greg Jennings be a hot commodity on the open market?


*Greg Jennings is a really fine wide receiver, but he may be in for a little bit of a rude awakening on the free agent market. According to a couple of front office men I spoke with, teams might not be throwing fistfuls of cash at this two-time Pro Bowler. Why not? A couple of reasons. First, they believe Jennings won’t produce as much without Aaron Rodgers throwing to him, and without Mike McCarthy drawing up plays for him. And secondly, he is 29 years old. Jennings would have been much better positioned to make a killing if he became free after his first contract. Teams are hesitant to pay big for other team’s wide receivers in their third contracts.

This will be interesting to see how it all goes down.

Good news, Miami is looking better and better for Jennings

[Vertical Limit]

Well that's stuff I already knew.

[hooshoops]

he'll get at least $8 mil per year on this deal...seems like a steal to me

[phinfan33]

I say get him to Miami and let's get Ryan throwing to him asap.

This team shouldn't hesitate to match the best offer/pay him a little extra if they really want him. We need a WR way too desperately to be low balling.

I agree with the logic, but that only makes him a better deal for the Dolphins unless Ireland screws it up. At 8 million or so per year he will be too expensive for Green Bay but a bargain for us. Wallace would come much more expensive, maybe along the lines of 12 million or so per year. The amount saved from adding Jennings instead of Wallace plus what we have left on our cap should allow us to be a player in FA for other very helpful FA's like Andy Levitre or Sebastian Vollmer. Jennings + Levitre/Vollmer = Good.

8/9 million.... Sign him up please Jeffery. Use the 4 million you save compared to Wallace to sign Finley/Cook.

[Hayden Fox]

I think he would be solid for Joe and Sherm

[luduporcu]

Everyone wants one or the other. I say why not BOTH JENNINGS and WALLACE? Give WALLACE $11-12 Million, and JENNINGS 8-9, and be done w/it, already! WR problem solved! And don't hand me any CRAPOLA about "too much capspace used up", either. That's a crock!!! We're starting out w/c. $46 Million in "capspace". INCOGNITO isn't a fit for our new z-b-s. And MARSHALL has had surgery for multiple herniated discs. As far as I'm concerned, MARSHALL's a REALLY bad risk: I don't know that he was all that good to begin with. But I DO know that I don't like back injuries. We aren't talking "spasms" here: we're talking multiple herniated discs!!! And he's supposed to bear up in run support (inter alia)????? Anyone remember DARRYL GARDNER at all? From beast to mush, after back surgery. Remember him now?

I added it up: cutting INCOGNITO and MARSHALL adds up to a cap saving of close to $10 Million. And we all know that there's quite a few more players on MIAMI's roster who either don't fit what Coach PHILBIN wants to do or just aren't all that good. But they're getting millions. Well, CUT them and be done w/it!! MIAMI can do better than that. And while we're at it, say good-bye to J LONG. He doesn't really fit the z-b-s, and a player can't dominate ANYONE from the whirlpool or from a hospital bed. LONG seems to have lost it: he's been mediocre for a long time now, and he can't stay healthy in any event. And HE wants $10 Million +???

At the very least, we might be able to also get a solid CB out of F/A, or maybe a legit solid OLman who fits the new scheme.

In my opinion, since we're in the AFC East, w/N.E. and TOMMY boy, we need another pass-rusher at DE or OLB...the GIANTS showed everyone THAT much...TWICE!!! This year, MIAMI has 5 Picks in the 1st thru 3rd Rounds of the Draft, and as luck would have it, there are a lot of good-looking pass rushing DEs and OLBs this year. Well...GRAB 2 or 3. Use some of those Picks to move back into the 1st Round, and make both 1st Round picks a pass-rusher.Take a "flyer" on another one late.

Address what needs to be addressed, and "double down". Get it done once and for all.
