So we tend to think that this is a ploy from the Dolphins to get Gholston to tell CAA’s Ben Dogra that whatever the Fins are offering had better be accepted. Now.

Hmmmmmm....

I am not surprised... I think the its the rule this year that teams don't see this draft class worth the money and its just balloning out of control. You are in a catch 22, you want the top guys in the draft but to do that you'll find yourself in cap trouble in a hurry. The other catch is you paid all this money to a player that turns out to be a bust and we all know that happens.

This will be great for us though. Dolphins sign there guy on time of the draft and it'll speed up us signing our our draft pick Dorsey - LOL.
