Yeah, I'm already seeing this not going well. I sincerely hope I'm wrong.Mothman wrote:It's going to be interesting to see if Wallace fits or if his attitude will clash with that of his coaches and teammates:

I'm hoping Wallace will see this as his last chance to keep his big pay check and he'll fall in line. He's already not even worth a straight up 5th round pick via trade (we got a 7th as well) so I'm hoping that knocked him down a peg. If he blows this chance and gets cut after the season he'll certainly be paid less in free agency.dead_poet wrote: Yeah, I'm already seeing this not going well. I sincerely hope I'm wrong.
I hope so too but I'm nervous.dead_poet wrote:Yeah, I'm already seeing this not going well. I sincerely hope I'm wrong.
That's a good point. I would hope he'd be a bit humbled by this trade but who knows?Cliff wrote:I'm hoping Wallace will see this as his last chance to keep his big pay check and he'll fall in line.

No we laughed because you said "hard-on". [emoji1]joe h wrote:Remember when you all laughed at me because I stated the obvious that old Rick has a hard on for anyone that has ever grown up in Florida, went to school there, or spent some time on one of their nfl teams....
This is just getting old. My brother is a steelers fan, the guy was a bum that just happened to fit into a good system. he looked like crap last year on a team light years ahead of what Spielman has pasted together.

Give Rick a break. He's obviously not getting the same amount of blood flow to his noggin as other GMs as a consequence of that Florida-induced woody.joe h wrote:Remember when you all laughed at me because I stated the obvious that old Rick has a hard on for anyone that has ever grown up in Florida, went to school there, or spent some time on one of their nfl teams....

By the way, Wallace was born and raised in Louisiana, attended college in Mississippi and played for Pittsburgh in the pros. The, when he became a free agent, the Vikes tried to sign him, before Wallace had any connection to Florida at all. However, he ended up signing with Miami instead. Nevertheless, since Rock Hard Rick was clearly interested in Wallace before there was a Florida connection, your theory doesn't really hold orange juice... er water.

Well, he's in another good system. So he has that going for him. And not sure how many light years the Dolphins are ahead of anyone.joe h wrote:This is just getting old.

Wasn't it already reported he was upset with the trade? Not sure how humbled someone is when less than 24 hours after the trade someone around him is already letting it out he wasn't too happy. Not sure you can humble these diva wide receivers...That's a good point. I would hope he'd be a bit humbled by this trade but who knows?
If Wallace looked like crap last year then what did our receivers look like? Wallace was better last season than any of our receivers.joe h wrote:Remember when you all laughed at me because I stated the obvious that old Rick has a hard on for anyone that has ever grown up in Florida, went to school there, or spent some time on one of their nfl teams....

News to me, and not good news at all IMO.The Dolphins and Vikings both confirmed the deal, while Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports noted that Wallace's contract will remain the same.
