Dolphins cuts thread

I think Miami wanted to keep Kiko but Kiko sees the writing on the wall.

He should be willing to give up that roster guarantee he got in March if he doesn’t mind being released. Or take a paycut to make him more desirable in a trade.

Difficult to trade as it stands tho.

I think we have been trying to trade kiko since beginning of TC. Flores exploited the shiz out of him over the years. No way Flores ever saw him on the team.

I just don't think you can separate the two. Contract and player together make value. If a team need to eat money to increase value...there is still value. I get your point but I feel we will see a lot more contract splitting to facilitate some trades.

Less about the team eating money and more about the player taking a paycut to help the team trade him to a preferred destination.

Contract needs to be in a tradeable state before a team eats money to improve the draft pick.

Not true at all. If Flores was so against Kiko no way we agree to a $2.55 million dollar guarantee kicker when the league year opened. We would of cut bait.

Kiko saw other guys becoming better fits and his role was slowly being diminished and he requested a trade/release.
 
More than likely getting cut and can go where ever he wants, not his fault he doesn't fit

Won't get Miami money anymore so - he should take that money and move on

I don't necessarily agree that a contract has to be tradable before trying to trade. That is worked out after. I feel the NFL is going to start looking more like MLB.
 
Still think once Raekwon is back from the "undisclosed injury" he's back out there at MLB.

Ego has far from made me forget McMillan with his play.

I hear ya. But just don't agree. I saw kiko out the day we hired Flores.
 
To me they look like they want faster linebackers who can cover - blitz - not sure he isn't in the same boat as Kiko

70% nickle is what I think and he is not a nickle linebacker

Would be nice to have on 1st down

How would you like a pay cut

Not a huge paycut. Something like going from $6.5 he is schedule to make to maybe $5 million and Miami covers the $2.5 they guaranteed him in March.

On the open market he is not getting $5 million AAV. He’ll be Zach Brown who is signing deals that may get him to $3 million AAV.

You have to put it in perspective.
