dolphins trading up in first round?

[ufbrad@hotmail.]

In the Jake Long press conference, Ireland mentioned the possibility of moving up in the first round if "the right player were there." Any guesses as to who that might be? Or is Ireland just blowing smoke at the media?

Maybe DRC? Who else would tempt the Dophins to move UP in the draft?

It would almost have to be a QB or pass rusher.

MAYO!

I wonder for who ?

Why would it have to be a QB? I think if anything it will be defense. Maybe Dan Conner aka "Replacement Zach?".

MAYO-
- Jerod Mayo (LB) Tennessee

Analysis: Mayo is a fast, rangy LB who tackles well. Mayo will have to improve his shedding skills to be successful in the 3-4.​

I would guess if these players made it out of the top 20, they could try to get them:
A. Brendan Albert
B. Matt Ryan
C. DRC, L. Mc, or Mike Jenkins
Other than them IMO id rather see who falls to 32.

sorry to disagree but if anything the fins will trade down in round 2 maybe with baltimore, with the jale signing this means falcons will draft matt ryan

If we trade up, I bet it would be for Flacco. That is the rumor that has been going around today. The interest in Henne is a smokescreen, and Flacco is the real target.

I doubt we'll trade up...we just spent a ton of money....if anything we'll move down a little to get some extra picks....if we trade JT for a 2nd then we'll be looking good as far as pluging some holes.

Ozzy rules!!

Teams don't move up in the first round for inside linebackers, they move up for QB's and pass rushers and left tackles.

Bingo, thats the right idea.

 

[BobDole]

highly doubtful. we're looking to accumulate, not give away.

but, if beck isn't impressing, and parcells likes someone else, then possible.

is Flacco projected to be 1st rd material????
