The Dolphins have signed offensive interior lineman Cory Procter to a contract. The team beat out New England as well as Denver in adding Procter.
Procter had visited both the Broncos and Patriots before visiting Miami last week.
As reported on this blog last week, Procter is insurance against injury as well as adding another veteran with experience to the mix.
Procter, 27, was released by the Cowboys last Monday. He is 6-4 and 311. He was active for every game last year but barely played. He played in place of the injured Kyle Kosier at guard in 2008 for Dallas.

So Miami got rid of a injured, high priced veteran for a pick and signed a guy for cheaper and cost no pick. Seems like a great move !

So, in essence, we traded Smiley for Procter, and I'm assuming a 7th rounder. Not too shabby especially with Smiley's injury woes. However, when healthy, Smiley is a great player. But I believe his leadership is no longer needed. Jake Long is the leader of the o-line now. We used Smiley as a leader and to help Long get accustomed to the NFL. That's why he's no longer needed. It has nothing to do with his injury history IMO. He had an injury history before we signed him.

If I read the tea leaves correctly, would not be shocked to hear that our starting center who was our big signing from last year is traded. When he was out, his backup played well and with today's signing, might make sense specially if you can get in exchange a good pick next year or a starting safety this year.

Is Signing Proctor a Gamble??????
Posted by: Cuban Menace | May 24, 2010 at 05:24 PM
I'm curious as to why the cowgirls would let a guy like this go. Seems like a great pickup to me though.
Posted by: Patrick | May 24, 2010 at 05:41 PM
I don't see where it's a gamble. We're pretty well set at T and G, but with Grove's injury history, C is still somewhat thin. I like Garner, but Proctor is nice insurance, and should challenge for a backup job in the more likely event Grove is 100% or Garner excels. Worst case scenario...we cut him. There's no real downside to this signing.

Excellent News Armando
Great Job Trifecta

How or why folks R worried about our O-line Mystifies Me
Worry about the Defense
The Offense Is Gonna Be Awesome

don't forget about joe berger at C as well... o line is STOCKED, we can run or pass, I like this move good one for coach tony, good in backing up your head coach BP & Jeff
Posted by: harricane | May 24, 2010 at 06:03 PM
It bewilders me that Vernon Carey is not the leader considering his paycheck and time with the team. Also, dint be surprised if Smiley does great for the Jags and that conditional ends up being a fourth or fifth. Toodaloo mutha foo kasss

Home, Great to see you back on the meds,anyhoo, Dont you think the mighty Air breathers just brought in Mr.Proctor to push some of these Fat overpaid bunch we call a offensive line??????
Posted by: Cuban Menace | May 24, 2010 at 06:14 PM
I wish we had the same interest for wide receivers,like we do for the O line.

Posted by: mrmikejohnson | May 24, 2010 at 06:31 PM
Smiley would do great for a run 1st offense. At least that way his chances of lasting an entire season are much better. But Jax might be a good fit because they will be passing a lot more playing catch up as usual.
If that trend continues Smiley may have found his niche. Plus being a Georgia native he is much closer to home in Jax.

1st please do not be like Illiterate Omar @ the SS
It Is Procter
Not Proctor
and No The O-Linemen seems Pretty Good
They Did not want to pay him bout 2 Million
Plus Procter was looking for a Multi Year Deal
Procter Is Versatile
Also Plays Center and has many chest medals
5 states + 65 miles of coast will now never be the same covered in Red Blood Oil which will
Keep Coming and Coming + Coming to shore
785,000 Gals of Toxic Corexit 9500 R now confirmed to have been dumped to mask the surface oil

Do Not Like The Fact Omar
Usually has Wrong Misinformation on the Dolphins
Yet the Token Former political reporter Has the nerve to call himself, the eyes & Ears of The Dolphins (LMAO)
Last Year was Wilford Looks great probably R Best TE and will start
Also sais Ronnie Brown & Henne R not that good
Also would not stop praising the fraud O Int sean smith and said he was an elite Pro Bowl CB (ROTFALMAO)
Even made up a phantom game saving pass deflection Int in Patriots 2nd game verse us at Home
Where sean got his @ss beat by a #3 WR
When Home called him out about his ridiculous fairy tale lie which Omar bloogged & wrote in the printed paper
Omar kept lying to cover his @ss
His Partner Mike Berardino finally rewatched the tape for me & local bloggers
Saying not only did sean NOT MAKE ANY SUCH PLAY
BUT SEAN SHOULD HAVE BEEN FLAGGED FOR PI
Omar could not handle the truth and hid like a squirrel
Vontae Davis meanwhile made his second TD saving INT against Brady To Moss and sealed the Dolphins Victory By One Point
Omar said sean is much better than Vontae
Home Thinks Vontae Davis will soon reach the Pro Bowl

I will preface this this by saying I am fully aware that Procter was not one of the most sought after gre agents. But....
For him to chose Miami over the 3 time SB champs is says alot about our organization. We are a place where people want to be. Not just because of the nice weather, prime location and the women....what the hell was i talking about
