Hopefully Pat's knee acts up a bit on October 23rd in Miami.....I'm not thrilled about AJ tossing the pill his way all day long.

Good Luck Pat, you will be missed!:up: :up: :up:

Becareful what you wish for....

I wouldn't even be thrilll about A.J throwing the ball against the Cadinals defense.

I will say this, I wouldn't do it in round 2. But if in round 3 if that kicker from Ohio St is there (Nuggent) I would grab him and then tell Mare to take a friggin hike. That kid is for real and is can't miss!

Round 2 is too early for us since we have so many friggin needs. But a guy who is responsible for so many points like a kicker is, I wouldn't think twice about a 3rd rounder on him. He is the real deal

Hated to see this happen, but it also had to done (I hate the NFL salary cap). Pat will be missed, hopfully we will get great value with that 2nd pick.

For those of you who are...

whinning about the Surtain trade because we had to swap to a lower 5th round spot. It's only 12 spots lower and it's not a high round were you can get really good talent. You have to give a little sometimes to get what you want and we wanted the 2nd rounder and we got it. Bravo to Saban for not giving in to that 4th rounder

Nick Saban poker face:

Peterson: C'mon Saban we all know your gonna crack and take the 4th rounder! Bring it on i'm not afraid!
Saban: ...you will be...oh, you will be....

Saban is 100 times the coach and decision maker that Wanny was, that's for sure. I'm really impressed that he stuck to his guns. That's a very good sign for the coming years.

Surtain trade completed pending physical

Dolphins cornerback Patrick Surtain finally has a new zip code


FOXSports.com's Jay Glazer has learned that the Chiefs and Dolphins have agreed to a trade for the Pro Bowl cornerback that includes the Chiefs sending Miami their second-round pick as well as the two teams swapping fifth-round selections. In addition, the Chiefs has agreed to terms on a new seven-year deal for Surtain.



Such a deal has been long-awaited but the Chiefs had previously been unwilling to budge from the Dolphins' asking price of a second-round pick. However, with the three top cornerbacks in the draft slated to be long gone by their selection in the first round Kansas City stepped up to the plate. The two teams have agreed to the deal but it is contingent upon Surtain passing a physical. In addition, Miami and the Chiefs still need to finalize the paperwork but the deal has been agreed upon from all sides.

I'd love to keep Surtain really...but gotta get at least the 2nd round pick, and i'm glad when it gets over with

We get their 2nd round pick and we swap 5th rd picks according to MSN.

[PhinPhreak]

The Chiefs, in turn, have also agreed to terms on a new seven-year deal with Surtain.

I can't wait to see the numbers of his contract.

I guess this OFFICIALLY means that we can cross Brown, Benson & Williams off our list. No way we take rb now that we have a 2nd. Unless we trade down from our 1st of course
