This is the part where I remind you that there’s a strong possibility what you’re about to read below is another piece of February fecal throwing, and it’s an attempt by a source associated with Team X to drive down the perceived level of interest in a player, and to therefore also drive down the players’ price. So know that, before knowing this…

Things can always change, but I’ve been told that #Dolphins‘ Joe Philbin isn’t a huge fan of Greg Jennings as a player. Needs a WR but …
