Red-Zone Report

“It goes back to my Pittsburgh days,” Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter said during a Wednesday conference call, referring to his “hate” for the Patriots.

“I felt a certain way, after some things came out, way back when I was in Pittsburgh, some AFC championships I lost to them, couple times. Come to figure out a few months later why we lost,” Porter said. ” So yeah, I have a natural hate for them. Period. And that’s just gonna be with me forever.”

Porter was referencing the Patriots videotape scandal, which was uncovered in 2007. We got our hands on the tape.

Here it is, for your viewing pleasure:

The Sun Sentinal’s Omar Kelly says the Dolphins haven’t ruled out re-signing DE Jason Taylor, but the team is concerned about Taylor’s age and previous injuries.  

After missing out on a trade for Broncos QB Jay Cutler, the Jets may look at wide receiver in the draft to aid QB Kellen Clemens, the New York Post is reporting.

The Oakland Raiders and Miami Dolphins essentially swapped centers today, as the Phins sent Samson Satele, 24, to the Silver and Black in exchange for a sixth-round pick, Raiderbeat.com is reporting. The teams also swapped fourth-round picks.

The Dolphins signed former Raiders center Jake Grove to a huge free-agent deal in early March, making Satele expendable. 

Satele for a sixth-round draft choice seems like a steal to us, considering he’s started every game for the Dolphins since being drafted in 2007, as a second-round pick.

It’s not yet clear what this means for the Raiders –though it never really is. In the past week, the Raiders have added two starting offensive linemen: Satele and OT Khalif Barnes (Jaguars). The team also added OT Erik Pears on March 3.

Are the Raiders taking care of the O-line now, and looking to fill another need with the seventh pick in the first round? Or is Cable, a former offensive line coach, simply building from the inside out?
