    another offensive line addition being negotiated?

    just read something somewhere but can't locate it at the moment
    it said that Miami was interesting in Jake & Jake was interested in Miami
    that they had already met once & were undergoing preliminary negotiations
    his signing would give you an immediate elite guard that plays either side

    Ireland will be looking for solutions right up until game time. just never know what's next.

    If that happened and Martin pans out like some think he will, we could have a very close to "elite" line this season.

    This was out a couple of months ago - is there something more recent?

    I looked for the source I originally read & didn't find the one I had eluded to...
    however, can confirm he was in a meeting with Miami on the 25th of March

    two months is a long time to leave something on the table this time of year

    I know our offensive line is bad and all, but Jake Scott? Is he coming out of retirement? Does he know that number #13 is retired?



































    oooh, THAT Jake Scott.

    Not really. Maybe in years past but apparently this year all 32 NFL teams have not been too hasty in signing FA like Scott to contracts. Last I heard was the article mentioned where we and him were interested in each other. After that, the kid has dropped off the planet earth. I am guessing him and his agent are waiting for some sort of need due to injury then they could maybe get close to what they are asking. Other then that thought, Jake Scott has signed no where yet.

    The teams that had plenty of cap space have spent their money and the teams that are close to the cap are watching every penny. Scott, who is a good player, just got caught in the middle this year.

    Last I heard was they got into contact with him and they would address it after the draft. I imagine they will make a decision early in camp on Scott

    Has there been any additional information besides the two month old speculation?

    He would be an OK addition. I think he's still available because he thinks he's worth more than he is. He's a good pass protecting guard, but I question his anchor in pass protection when confronted by much bigger players, and at his size he will indeed run into some of those "much bigger" players. He's not a particularly good run blocker at all.

    I think I'd rather try Lydon Murtha at right guard.

    Last position Murtha would ever play is right guard. He does not have the strength, power or ballz to be a right guard. If anything, he is a tackle and with his injury history thats even a reach as a starter. A right guard that cannot move people that is 6'7" is counter productive in any current offensive scheme.

    Let's see how many people will get this. If Jake Scott comes to play in Miami will he wear number 13?

    Ireland commented something to the effect that Jake Scott was still within the realm of later considerations, that he was always open to an upgrade, an acorn, anything regardless of time frame that will benefit the team.
