Report: Long Agrees In Principle With Miami

April 22nd, 2008 · No Comments

Michigan offensive lineman Jake Long and the Miami Dolphins have agreed to terms on a five-year deal, FOXSports.com is reporting, and Long is slated to fly into Miami later Tuesday to join his new team. There has been much speculation recently that the team was setting up a smoke screen in their interest of Long, but apparently it wasn’t a ruse. Long, a 6-7, 315-pound tackle, was a two-time All-American at Michigan and was twice named Big Ten Offensive Lineman of the Year. He will be the first offensive lineman to be drafted No. 1 since 1997, when the St. Louis Rams took Ohio State tackle Orlando Pace. It will be the fifth time in league history an offensive lineman has gone No. 1.
