Ryan Clark arrives for visit in Miami

Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on March 7, 2010


Two days after dumping free agent bust Gibril Wilson, the Dolphins are working on acquiring another safety.

Steelers free safety Ryan Clark arrived in Miami Sunday evening, according to Jeff Darlington of the Miami Herald.

"There were a lot of good offers, and a lot of good fits," Clark said upon arrival. "But this seems like a good spot. So I'm praying it goes well."

Clark says he chose his first visit carefully, and hope he doesn't make another.

"That's the reason we waited so long to take any [free agent] trips," Clark said. "We had interested teams that I didn't really want to go to, and I didn't want to try to make myself look busy by going to a bunch of different places."

Keeping the big hitter doesn't appear to be a big priority for the Steelers, and the Dolphins look ready to spend more of owner Stephen Ross' money this offseason.

Anxiously awaiting the 'Steelers are chumps/ just got worse' & 'Dolphins got better/ know how to treat free agency' comments to follow this possible loss/gain of a so-so nfl talent.

Clark was fine, when he had the 'safety' blanket of Troy with him. Without him, is he that much better than Ryan Mundy?

Well,..they both entered the league slow and with little or nothing of any significance on their respective collegiate football resumes. But,... Mundy's bigger and was drafted in the 7th where Clark was an UFA. Uuuuuhh,.....advantage Mundy ? ("shrugging shoulders with indifference")

I hope they don't offer him big money and he'll make it back to the Steelers. I hope his agent is also smart enough to know that the Steelers may be letting the NFL negotiate his contract and then determine if they want to match or not. It's common practice, I hope they don't take it personally, it's only business as the players like to say.

I'm hoping he returns but I think he's gone. This explains reports that the Steelers are bringing in Will Allen for a visit sometime this week.
