DAVIE -- When the Dolphins begin their fourth and final quarterback school of the off-season today, free-agent wide receiver Oronde Gadsden will be in Jacksonville, visiting with the Jaguars.
The Dolphins set a deadline for Gadsden to re-sign this week, or they would take a pass on the ninth-leading receiver in team history. The Dolphins have offered Gadsden a one-year deal worth $530,000 and have been in a take-it-or-leave-it mode.
Gadsden will undergo a physical today and his agent, Michael Todd, hopes to have immediate discussions with Jacksonville about a contract. The Jaguars also have expressed interest in J.J. Stokes and Antonio Freeman. They are in need of a No. 2 receiver opposite Jimmy Smith.
"When things started to heat up with Jacksonville, I told (the Dolphins) that it was something that we needed to finish investigating," Todd said. "Everything I heard back was that they were fine with that. It wasn't like, 'You come in or else.' "
