Let's kick this thread off now that the Dolphins traded for Brandon Marshall. We have a real WR! Huzzah!Now, trade Ginn for a ham sandwich and draft some OLBs and a safety.

This is tough. I dislike the Broncos as much as any team in the league and I've always thought Marshall was an immature headache who can't stay out of trouble. I can only imagine how many women he's going to fight in the South Beach clubs. But, he's really, really good. I guess it's just one of those cases where you root for a good player and ignore everything else about him. He better stay out of trouble, one more problem and he's suspended for a year.

Miam?I wouldn't trade Ginn. At the very least he's a very valuable kick returner. Not having to be the #1 receiver might be good for him too.

That's how all the cool kids say it now.Ginn is cheap so I dont really care if they keep him or not. I see the Dolphins using almost all their picks on D now. NT, OLB and S are the priorities. Chad Henne has to be thrilled.

I think henne is going to have a break out season

Halfway there. Ginn traded to 49ers for 5th round pick.

Adios, Teddy. Have fun not catching passes in SF.

I wonder if his family was traded too.

a 5th rounder seems fair for a guy who can't catch and hates contact. I'm amazed we got that much. Good riddance....his welcome was worn out in Miami a long time ago. Maybe a fresh start will be good for him.Miami has a ton of low round picks now.....I would package a few of them and try to get another 3rd rounder.

Love trading down so much. Picking up a high 2nd is huge. Odrick makes sense if he can move inside on passing downs. I would have rather had Kindle or Hughes but Odrick seems like a very safe pick.

I was a bit surprised by the move, but I can't argue with grabbing an extra pick. The move almost ended up looking brilliant if Dan Williams had lasted two more spots, unless they were never interested in him in the first place.

This draft is deep so I would rather they get two top 50 guys than one. They loved Odrick since the Senior Bowl so I think they dont mind not getting Williams. If they get Kindle at 40, this will all look very brilliant. Then just draft they best available safety at 73 and all the holes are plugged as good as possible. They have a lot of late round picks to take some projects on too.

This is what I'm hoping for.

Well, he was there but they picked Misi instead which tells me they just did not like Kindle that much. Misi had a 2nd round grade so I am cool with it and have to trust that there was something they like about him over Kindle. He fills a need that's for sure.

Is he an islander of some sort? Because I think Miami has some sort of quotient for those players they have to fill, too.

It does seem that way, doesn't it?According to the local papers, Miami has loaded up on guys it liked from the Senior Bowl (which they helped coach so they got some extra time with all of them). Odrick was someone they loved at the Senior Bowl, ditto Misi and the guard they took from Ole Miss.Go with who you know seems like a safe strategy. I really wish they had gotten a safety in the first few rounds though.If they can get Rashad Jones from Georgia at #126, I will be a happy guy.

I can't believe I wrote "quotient" when I clearly meant "quota".
