Impact: Dockett is signed through 2011, however, he has been complaining for the past few years that he is underpaid. He says that he is open to negotiating with the Cardinals this offseason, but if an agreement is not reached, he would rather test free agency following the 2011 season than continue negotiating. This report states that Dockett will probably get his wish of a new contract with the Cardinals, since the team doesn't have much defensive line depth, and Dockett is among the NFL's best at his position. Dockett, however, recently said that he isn't optimistic that an agreement can be reached, given the Cardinals' history of being tight with money. Whether a restructured deal is reached or not, Dockett should be a Cardinal for the foreseeable future.
