Allen, Dolphins Reach Six-Year Deal

[VADER72]

Wonder why Leinart is being a tool. Maybe he's still upset gettin picked 10th. Loved that look on his face the day of the draft while he waited. Is he even in camp?

[Colorado Dolfan]

Do you think that Saban will let DC play against the Jags this Saturday?

Maybe for 1 series... Don't think he wants to take too much of a chance with our OL...

Definitely looking forward to seeing what some of our rookies do, though...

Sunday 9pm on NFL Network... set your clocks!!

Note to Matt Leinart as the Arizona Cardinals' training camp continues without him: The last two times agent Tom Condon had a first-round quarterback hold out for any significant amount of time (Washington's Heath Shuler in 1994 and Chicago's Cade McNown in '99), things didn't work out so well. Just sayin'.

Leinart is so Hollywood

everybody point and laugh at matt leinart for being the only 1st round unsigned rook

Allen, Dolphins Reach Six-Year Deal
August 07, 2006
[Sun-Sentinel] Dolphins rookie free safety Jason Allen ended his ten-day holdout Monday night by agreeing to a six-year contract, a source said.

Financial details were not immediately available.

Allen is the second-to-last player chosen in the first round to come to contract terms, leaving Arizona quarterback Matt Leinart as the only unsigned pick. The delay stemmed largely from the Dolphins' insistence that Allen sign a six-year contract while agent Mitch Frankel pushed for a five-year deal.

Frankel changed his stance last week, helping to pave the way for a contract agreement.

Allen isn't expected to play in the Dolphins' preseason opener Saturday night against visiting Jacksonville, as coach Nick Saban will probably want him to log more practice time before making his NFL debut. In 2005, first-round draft pick Ronnie Brown ended a three-week contract holdout on a Monday but didn't play five days later in a preseason game at Pittsburgh.

"I think we'll try to do with (Allen) what we did with Ronnie," Saban said Monday before the signing was finalized. "We'll give the guy a certain number of days to get himself in football shape until we put him in a game situation."

Good news for Fin fans
