Adam Schefter: It’s worth pointing

 

let me start off by saying... don't kill the messenger. And as much as i would hate to see it acutally happen... but the Phins did extend Cobbs to a contract and Ronnie should be back 100% from his knee injury.

 

Schefter pointed out the following: It’s worth pointing out that if Miami cuts running back Ricky Williams, the team will save $3.5 million against the salary cap. Is that worth it to the Dolphins?

I doubt it

I think the regime really likes Ricky, this was show last year when he seemed to be getting a lot more carries than Ronnie toward the end of the year. Plus we are way under the cap as it is and didn’t the NFL put in a rule that teams have to spend close to or all of their cap now? (I could just me making this up). Other than who we signed right now (Wilson, Crowder and Carey) other than Jason Brown and Bell i don’t see up being big players in FA except cheap depth guys. So cap space isn’t a concern is not a concern for us that they would do this.

they wouldn't have resigned him

Parcells always runs with 2 main backs and a scat back.

exactly

Parcells LOVES Ricky. And that’s why he gave him that extension right before last season began.

Man

Even though Ricky pissed me off at one point in time I still love the guy I would like to see him retire as a fin.

Hope not

I still break out the Ricky jersey on game day.
Ricky even got me to pay attention to the CFL for a few games. Only time I’ve paid attention, despite the fact I live in Toronto.

I don't think he'll get cut.

Maybe, if we still had Parmele queued up on the Practice Squad, because I thought that he would’ve been Ricky’s eventual replacement anyway.

I don’t see us hurting that much for cap space that Ricky would be expendable.

It would be a waste

we cut him and then he retires

Ricky owes us...

for walking out on us and making me use my very expensive Williams jersey as jizz rag.
He’ll take whatever we give him and like it. We should sign him to a 10 year extension and use him a sled bag when he no longer can contribute in games.

For some strange reason, I think he honestly feels in debt to the organization. Maybe I’m just making that up so that his guilt justifies me forgiving him,…. again…and again,,,,

it would make zero sense to cut Ricky
