Miami Dolphins waste little time, begin meeting with Matt Flynn on Saturday morning by Ben Volin

The Miami Dolphins aren’t wasting any time with Matt Flynn.
 
Flynn, the Dolphins’ top free agent priority now that Peyton Manning has eliminated them from contention, is in South Florida this morning to meet with Dolphins officials and get checked out by the team’s medical staff, his father, Alvin Flynn, said by phone Saturday morning from Texas.
 


Flynn was in Seattle yesterday visiting with the Seahawks, the Dolphins’ top competition for his services, and flew to South Florida after it finished, landing here around 5 or 6 this morning after some delays, his father said.

The Dolphins had planned to let Flynn rest this morning after the long flight and three-hour time change, but instead had to get going with the tests because of a small window to work with the medical staff. Flynn’s meetings with the football staff will then proceed after the medical tests.
 
Alvin Flynn said his son enjoyed his visit with the Seahawks but had no intention of signing with them before visiting the Dolphins and new head coach Joe Philbin, who was Flynn’s offensive coordinator the past four seasons in Green Bay.
 
“He said it was a really nice place, and he enjoyed it, but he wanted to look at both of them. That was the way he felt going in,” Alvin Flynn said.

But now that he’s in South Florida, he may not leave. The Dolphins are considered by many experts as the logical landing spot for Flynn, given his connections with Philbin and the team’s desire to find a franchise quarterback.
 
“Logic would tell me he would do something this weekend or thereabouts,” Alvin Flynn said. “He doesn’t want to drag this out.”

Watching NFL Network talk about they don't believe Flynn is much "If" any better than Matt Moore!   With his yrs in Philbin's system... he has to be more comfortable with the offense than Moore would be at this point!

I really don't know what to think anymore... smh!

Reports are Seattle only wants to give Flynn a 1 or 2 year deal. And they won't hand him the starting QB job.

Seattle has also moved on to Alex Smith. They like him and they want to stick it to SF at the same time...lol
If Seattle thinks they are "sticking it" to SF by signing Alex Smith, they are dumber than I thought.

They should be paying for "Keep Alex Smith a 49er!" billboards in SF.

If Denver gets Manning, could Seattle wind up with Tebow?
