Default Fins sign Joey Porter

A television station in Pittsburgh is reporting free agent LB Joey Porter will sign a five-year, $24 million contract with the Miami Dolphins.

The report says Porter will get $12 million to sign, a hefty figure, but this is a great addition to coordinator Dom Capers' defense. Porter, 30 in March, should still have three-to-four quality years left and is a big upgrade over Donnie Spragan. Miami could still add linebacker help in the draft.

Good move by them, Porter and Taylor on opposite sides will be tough to block.

Good thing their offense sucks and the rest of the D is continually getting older....

So, will Joey become known as the "Mouth of the South", or has someone else claimed that title already?

For some reason, and I don't know why, I'm much more comfortable with him going to the Fins rather than to the JeSts as was rumored yesterday. Don't think I could stand him in green and white.

Joey Porter has never really scared me. I'd take Vrabel over him. Still get good production without the attitude.

Very close to what AD got paid, evidently.

One thing's for sure -- the Fins will continue to be able to get "up" for Patriot games.
