Over / under 2.5 players signed tomorrow (counting Malik Jackson)
Has there been any Sean Smith to Jags rumors yet, or is it just wishful thinking till tomorrow?

If signing Vernon to an offer sheet counts then I'll take the over.

Over.


Jackson, Vernon, Irvin, possibly one other.


5th signing on Thursday.
Tweet from Alex Marvez (@alexmarvez) - Getting strong vibes from #NFL folks I speak with that @MiamiDolphins will ultimately rescind transition tag on @oliviervernon50. We'll see

First Jackson, then Irvin and now this...... Checkmate AFC south
I don't know how to copy and paste tweets but Alex Marvez just tweeted that the feeling he is getting from talking to other NFL people is that Miami will ultimately rescind the transition tag from Vernon.

Somebody's got to explain to me how to copy and paste things in here lol

So we gonna get:

Malik Jackson

Bruce Irvin

Olivier Vernon

Sean Smith

Chris Ivory

Jeff Allen


Then draft

Ramsey or Jack/Joseph


It's built.

How anyone could complain about that scenario is beyond me. But they will.


Hell, if you told me a week ago that we'd sign Jackson, Vernon and Irvin - I'd have thought it a long shot. Now it looks like it's a real possibility.

The best part is that all of these guys are relatively young. They can contribute for a long time.

Jackson - 26, Irvin - 28, Vernon - 25, Fowler - 22, Odrick - 28, Miller & Marks - 29
Exactly. It gives us plenty of time to draft and develop more talent.

NOW it's built for real.
Holy cow guys, please keep a hold of the reigns just a little. We got Malik and it sounds like we're pretty strong favorites for Irvin, that's fantastic. Now the volcano has erupted and we're all but mortal locks to get Vernon and Smith/Jenkins and Gipson and Allen...despite very cursory rumors at best? There are still almost a billion FA dollars out there and a ton of teams that want these studs. Let's try to keep the lid on a bit for those other guys.

I think we are done for tonight.
