ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

5 years $22 million (or maybe it was 32, I forget)

Re: ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

22 seems low.

Re: ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

I'd have guessed a much higher contract but a good signing for them. I would think the 22 would be the guaranteed portion.

Did Porter not want to stay in Pitt?

Didn't Pitt release him?

Re: ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

Schefter is reporting 32.5 with 20 in guaranteed over 5.

Re: ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

Yeah it's a $32M deal with $20M guaranteed.

Re: ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

so he's only getting $7 million more than smoot?

Re: ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

So why didn't we go after him? Is he too old?

Don't you mean to young. I think porter is very overated. Just my opinion but I'm glad we stayed clear of him.

Re: ESPN: Dolphins Sign Joey Porter
 

Porter is guaranteed $20 million in the deal! THESE TEAMS HAVE GOTTEN OUT OF CONTROL WITH THIS KINDA SPENDING. Porter is a GOOD LB...it's a shame the market thinks he's that good. HE'S NOT!

It will hurt ALL teams, and that transfers to the guys like me that pay to go to the games in the LONG and short term! They pay more we pay more!

Porter has several good years left.

The LAST thing we would have needed to do is go after an overrated and now overpaid LB.

Thank the LORD that peanut head, with a brain the same size is in Miami! :Flush:

[QUOTE=skinsfan69;285037]So why didn't we go after him? Is he too old?[/QUOTE] We are pretty set at LB!

I agree. I too think Porter is overrated.
