Dolphins | Team could have interest in Collins
Mon, 27 Mar 2006 19:12:49 -0800

Jamison Hensley, of the Baltimore Sun, reports the Miami Dolphins might have interest in free agent QB Kerry Collins (Raiders). The team could use insurance if Dolphins QB Daunte Culpepper (knee) is not fully recovered from knee surgery.

very thorough ;) you have to wonder, with ferrote getting 2.1mill a year, how much is collins (who's better) going to cost? And if they're that unsure, why didn't they just re-hitch gus?

No way. Frerotte is no prize himself, but hes a hundred times better than Collins.

ferotte throws a few less INTs per TD, but collins puts up LOTS more yards... its not like he had the greatest WR cast in NY, and he isn't a career backup either.

your point is somewhat supported by the time collins has been on the FA market without interest though. I don't think his arm was strong enough to max out on randy last year :/

I'm focusing on the offensive efficency though. Collins had Moss, Porter, LaMont Jordan, and a decent O-Line, and put up 310 points (the cards put up 311) and lost 11 games. Frerotte had Chambers, Michmichael, and Ronnie Brown/Pot Head, and a far worse O-line, put up 318 pts, and won 9 games. That's why hes better.

Oh, and Frerotte didn't hit Lemar Marshall in stride.

yeah but the dolphins defense wa about 100x better than oaklands, and i think that had a lot to do with it as well.

Dolphins | Team contacts Collins' agent
Tue, 28 Mar 2006 07:06:23 -0800

Jason Cole, of the Miami Herald, reports the Miami Dolphins have talked to agent David Dunn about free agent QB Kerry Collins (Raiders). Collins ranks higher on the team's priority list than Detroit Lions QB Joey Harrington. Dunn indicated Monday, March 27, that both Collins and Harrington are hoping to land starting jobs.

interest is official now. I think collins will wait on the ravens to make an offer before deciding, since boller is a step below terrible.

Jeff Darlington, of the Palm Beach Post, reports a source said Detroit Lions QB Joey Harrington will visit the Miami Dolphins Wednesday, March 29, as both teams are interested in a potential trade. Harrington has received interest from several teams but is visiting the Dolphins first because of their critical need for a backup. Dolphins' head coach Nick Saban said he hopes to fill the vacancy soon, but would not rush.
