Miami Dolphins left tackle Jake Long is expected to hit the free agent market and he will be looking for a big pay day. There is a very slim chance that the Dolphins retain Long, so he will be looking for potential suitors once he becomes available.

According to reports, the Dolphins are only considering a deal that would give Long $6 to $7 million a year and the former No. 1 overall pick is seeking much more.

Long is reportedly looking for a deal worth $11 million a year.
