Kenyan Drake traded to the Cardinals

[circumstances]

So that 2016 draft for Miami was....pretty good huh?

The best in recent memory.

3 years of good to great play out of Tunsil, then traded for two firsts and a second (with Stills).

XHoward. Stud.

3 years of play out of Drake (5 games of great play). Traded for unknown compensation.

Jakeem still here as primary returner.

Great move. It's amazing they were able to get anything for him.

It is weird that it's not being reported anywhere else. I assumed CBS was a credible source..

 

[Pandarilla]

He was fun to watch

 

[BigNastyFish]

He was fun to watch

...drop passes and fumble...

 

[Tiko377]

...another 'bama bum


...drop passes and fumble...

Bama running backs are pretty good other then Trent Richardson.

Josh Jacobs is having a great rookie year

...drop passes and fumble...

...drop passes and fumble...

Elite speed and catches well overall. I have been here when we couldn't draft a rb for a decade so don't count your chickens to early. With 6 rbs on the roster since day 1 this year this was the plan. Rather it was Ballage.

I still haven't seen anything official about it

He turned me off at the beginning of the year hitting the LOS and turning his back, basically backing up into the pile.

If he was still on his rookie contract I'd be all for keeping him. He wants to get paid (understandably) and I want him to get paid...just not with a check signed by Stephen Ross.

drafts picks are very valuable if you know what you’re doing..

They are still a lottery. No team hits on every pick. If you hit on 50% you're doing well.

 

[Martel13]

He was traded? For what? Any info?

 

[The Ghost]

Tennessee a possibility?

A reunion with Tannehill and Derrick Henry in the cards for KD? He works as a change of pace there.

 

[Michael Scott]

This is some Miami Heat level secrecy. I'll say that much.

Don't know. Don't know. No.

Thread title is misleading, based on a report that "The Miami Dolphins have agreed in principle to a trade involving running back Kenyan Drake, according to a league source, and Drake did not accompany the team to Pittsburgh for Monday night’s game against the Steelers. The identity of the team acquiring Drake was not immediately known, but an agreement was reached Saturday night."
