PA Season Ticket Holder
05-25-2003, 06:34 PM
Although one personnel exec recently told us that someone should take a chance on Dolphins free-agent receiver Oronde Gadsden for something more than the $530K minimum deal, another executive type tells us that 32 teams can't be wrong -- and that Gadsden is "slow and he's not that good."
Gadsden also has real medical issues, including most recently a wrist that required season-ending surgery in 2002.
The thinking is that Gadsden can't get over the fact that he entered the league the hard way, missing out on a big pay day because he spent much of his twenties in the Arena League.
As we've previously reported, he's now embarrassed that he failed to accept a multiyear package with $750,000 up front, which Miami had on the table even after Gadsden injured his wrist.
