Dolphins get Marshall

Bill Parcells decided Brandon Marshall is worth the trouble. Parcells' Miami Dolphins also decided Marshall is worth two second-round draft picks. Miami acquired the high-maintenance Pro Bowl wideout from Denver for a second-round pick next week and another next year. According to ESPN.com, a league source said Marshall and the Dolphins have agreed on a four-year, $47.5-million contract extension that includes $24 million in guaranteed money.

Marshall has a history of domestic violence, clashed with Broncos coach Josh McDaniels and was summoned before NFL commissioner Roger Goodell.

Coleman, Moss sign,

Backup cornerback Drew Coleman, a restricted free agent, has signed a one-year tender with the Jets. Coleman signed the tender, worth $1.176 million, leaving running back/kick returner Leon Washington as the Jets' only remaining unsigned restricted free agent.

Sinorice Moss has signed his tender offer from the Giants and will earn $1.176 million in 2010. The signing leaves four restricted free agents on the Giants who have yet to sign their tenders - Barry Cofield, Gerris Wilkinson, Domenik Hixon and Derek Hagan - but all are expected to by the June 1 deadline.
