Dolphins sign RT Carey for $42 million

[apple strudel]

6 years, $42 million. He's a guy I was hoping would stay under the radar and sneak his way onto the pats roster. Now they fins have $90 million tied up in their tackle position and stability for 5 more years. Looks good for them, bad for us, though it is a lot of money.

What a waste of money, the guy is good but not that good.

Isn't he one of the guys the Pats were rumored to be looking at when they wound up with Wilfork?

I think it's one of those controversial rumors, with credible-sounding people emphatically on each side.

Lots of money...hope he's worth it......

Perhaps Tuna is banking on there being a few uncapped years? I wonder what the garuanteed portion of the contract is. Assuming there is a salary cap going forward, I personally think that is too much money for that position.

Its Parcells, hes worth it.

I'm sure glad the Pats didn't get him, Wilfork was a steal. Wasn't Carey struggling this season, or was it last season? Anyway, the Dolphins over payed for this guy. If Carey gets this, what's Mankins going to ask for?

Free agency.

Agree, you kinda have to trust what the Dolphins do under Parcells now.
