Dansby’s a Dolphin

In media circles, ESPN’s Adam Schefter is having one hell of a day.

Schefter now reports that the Miami Dolphins have agreed to terms with free agent linebacker Karlos Dansby on a five-year, $43 million deal, with $22 million in guaranteed money.

The question now will be where Dansby’s going to play. He’s a prototypical outside linebacker in a 4-3, but now he’ll either have to make the transition inside in Miami’s 3-4, or train himself to rush the passer more frequently as a replacement for Jason Taylor on the outside.

So there’s a touch of uncertainty there, and while I do think Dansby is a great pure linebacker, that’s a lot of money.
