DOLPHINS SIGN JOSH MCCOWN by Michael David Smith

Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports that the Miami Dolphins have reached a contract agreement with free agent quarterback Josh McCown.

Per Schefter, the contract is a two-year deal worth $6.25 million. Although that's a contract more in line with what a backup usually makes, McCown may very well be the Dolphins' starter in September. Of the three quarterbacks on the Dolphins' 2007 roster, two -- Trent Green and Cleo Lemon -- are already gone, and the third -- John Beck -- was unimpressive in the four games he started.

McCown started nine games for the Raiders last year, completing 58.4 percent of his passes and throwing 10 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He previously started 22 games for the Cardinals from 2003 to 2005, and he spent the 2006 season with the Lions, where his only regular-season playing time came at wide receiver.

The Dolphins have been the busiest team in the league on a very busy first day of free agency.

McCown was very gutsy for Oakland last year, but if he is Miami's starter come Opening Day it's going to be another loooong year for them.

Good signing by the Fins. It's gonna be a long season no matter what. They aren't going to roll into the season with just Beck and a rookie.

I think they're going to take Ryan with the first pick.

And Randy Starks too?

Not sure how these moves relate to the Redskins. McCown isn't a bad backup QB to have. In Tuna I Trust.

I don't know, but I was under the impression that Parcells always trades down to stockpile picks rather than blow it on one big player.

AAAARRRGGGH!!! You just made my ears bleed.Of course he wants to trade down. But nobody's going to trade up for that pick.

The Fins will select first. Who they select is the matter of debate.

Not for what he would have to get and save face with fans for trading it ...

Doubt it. I just can't see the tuna sending a 1.01 on anything (maybe a lineman, but....)Apart from that I think he will have to draft someone at that spot and the last name will likely be Long
