Ryan Clark says “no one” wants to join the Dolphins

Posted by Mike Florio on March 18, 2012, 10:38 PM EDT

So why are the Dolphins having a hard time luring free agents to South Beach? Steelers safety Ryan Clark has a theory.

After Clark congratulated quarterback Matt Flynn on joining the Seahawks via Twitter, one of Clark’s followers writes that “NO ONE wants to go to the Dolphins!” Clark responds by saying, “No one! To believe I almost went there but it was easy decision not to.”

Clark was referring to his decision in 2010 to stay with the Steelers in lieu of joining the Dolphins.

So what’s the issue? Clark later says, “It’s my honest opinion. Not a good guy making decisions.”

Here’s referring, presumably, to G.M. Jeff Ireland.

Clark didn’t specifically say whether other players share his opinion, but it’s implied in the “No one!” tweet.

If it’s true, the Dolphins need to find a way to fix the situation. If it’s not true, the Dolphins need to find a way to reverse a false perception

Terrible ownership, terrible GM, terrible stadium, apathetic fanbase and the stink of Dictator Carl lurking around.

Even South Beach can't put lipstick on that pig.

Miami is a shithole... I don't understand why anyone would want to live down there.

Having Carl Peterson still advising you = Microsoft trying to tell you how to build a new cool smart phone

In all fairness Peterson is probably having a tough time advising Ross because I don't think he wants the advice. Secondly, Manning is unique, he is probably the one player frankly immune to the manipulation of Peterson and any other league GM. From what I've read his agent has stepped aside in all this and will only get involved in the contract details at the end. That says a lot. The solution in Miami is to draft a qb and frankly they blew the head coaching hire already, the wrong guy in the wrong city. They should have hired Haley...he's the perfect guy to dump on a city to turn it around.
