Question: What do you think we should do with Landry and his pending contract?
It's OK to overpay for him because he is an important part of the team   -5 (23.8%)
Stand fast and only pay him if he is willing to accept reasonable money   -6 (28.6%)
Let him go to someone else. He is too immature and costs us too many penalties   -2 (9.5%)
Franchise tag him if he won't accept market value   -8 (38.1%)

Dolphins grant Jarvis Landry permission to seek trade

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000918605/article/dolphins-grant-jarvis-landry-permission-to-seek-trade
http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/22619549/miami-dolphins-give-wr-jarvis-landry-permission-pursue-trade

"Since that permission was granted, at least two teams already have communicated their interest in a potential deal, sources told ESPN's Josina Anderson."

Of course teams are going to be interested. It's all a matter of compensation. Hopefully, what will happen is that Landry finds out that his $16 million a year  request was unrealistic and he can agree with the Dolphins on something a bit lower.

Supply and demand.  If the demand for WRs is high enough and the supply of proven WRs is low enough, then $$$$$$.   If the demand for WRs is low enough and the supply of proven WRs is high enough, then $.

Bears have already shown interest in Trading for Landry.

I was shocked to read we did offer 13mil,Landry countered with 15,and the Dolphins refuse to make another offer...Just plain stupidity....

I just hope we don't take a second rounder of next year from a team that will be picking 64th. We seem to always lose out on any deal Tannenbaum makes. Paying an extra million or two for Landry wouldn't be the worst thing he has done and doubtful it would be worse than whatever trade he works.

They are waiting till Landry finds out no one is going to give him a long term contract for 15 a year.

Let me say if he takes less money to go somewhere else I’ll have issue with him. If its for more money elsewhere I cant really complain.  Channing Crowder said the same thing. He can’t be mad at Miami iif all they did was allowed him to see he isn’t worth what he thought he was.

They have a better idea about what they are thinking than most of us. They have access that we can only dream about to the team including both players and staff. 
Apparently not. The Dolphins work the writers to get them to write what they want more often then you think. The writers think they are getting inside information, rather they are getting told exactly what the teams want them told to suit their purpose. All of this was very smart negotiating by Miami. It's time now to sit down with Landry and work out a long term deal for around 14. It may not happen but if it doesn't it will be because Landry wouldn't sign it, not because the Dolphins wouldn't offer it.

I would gladly take a late 1st rounder or an early 2nd rounder for Landry, but what's the point with the way we draft?

Fuck it, let the prima donna little fucker go. His 4 yard receptions and subsequent 15 yard penalties aren't worth what he's asking.

I would normally agree, but he has been nothing but a team player, his only knock being the personal fouls from time to time.  He didn't hold out when most diva WR do, and has never said anything disparaging about the team.  Now it's time for him to get paid, wherever that is.

He's a valuable piece to have at an appropriate price or on a rookie contract, can't pay him Top 5 WR money to average 4 yards a catch. Sometimes all you need is 4 and it's good to have a guy to get it for you, but he isn't a Wes Welker in the making. Even with a Brady or Rodgers he won't go for 1,500 yards.

I think he's way better than Welker ever was.  Put Landry on Green Bay or New England and see what happens.

I don't blame him for the 5 yard receptions.  He doesn't call the plays.  Dude just runs the routes that he is told to run.

Dude, he had 5 penalties all year, and only 2 were 15 yarders.  Perception is not reality.
