I’m hoping he takes time to get better and gives the fins a hometown discount.

I love reading all these comments. Let Long go, he’s washed up. The first time Martin has a bad stretch everyone will be saying, fire Ireland for letting Long go.

This is the best thing that could have happened for Miami. They are out of playoff contention so now they can see if they have any O Line talent on the bench. This also makes their decision in the off season a-lot easier. Long is not close to elite and gets injured too often. I don’t think that even an elite LT is worth 13 million a season. Miami has over 30 free agents this off season and they need to spend their draft picks and cap space on playmakers.

Jake isn’t going anywhere.. He loves Miami and when healthy he’s arguably the best in the league .. He just needs to take a pay cut

Did Matt Ryan go to every single pro bowl since he’s been in the league? J. Long did.

Probably his last game in a Dolphins uniform, he’s going to demand way more money than he deserves and the Dolphins will do the smart thing and let some other team overpay for a mediocre LT.

Here we go Bears…As long as he doesn’t think he’s worth as much as Joe Thomas

We can use the draft or free agency to fill the RT postion as this year is done.

Problem isn’t replacing Long with Martin at LT. The problem is replacing Martin with Garner at RT.

It won’t be a major factor losing Long for the season. He is definitely not the same guy they drafted in 2008. For the amount of money it would cost to bring him back, the Dolphins could have 2 Tackles and a reserve. Long hasn’t shown the dominance he once had. He also has had issues with his health, which is another huge negative.

If Armando Sarguero said it, he’ll be playing next Sunday.

This is a blessing as now we can play our future starting LT in Martin. LONG has sucked for a LONG time now and is not worth the money or the risk of losing Tanny.

Long has been injury prone for a while. He was outstanding the first couple years. Since his nagging injuries, he’s been good but not stellar. Unless he takes a pay cut he won’t be a Dolphin. If they knew he would be a great and reliable player they would have reworked his deal last year. They did not do that because they needed more assurance and have not really gotten any. He’s a good player but not worth what he makes or expects to make any more.
