MERGED: Dolphins trade Vontae to Colts

[bobw999]

two seconds for Wallace maybe ? Can't say I have ever heard of two seconds for a WR...

That's what we got Brandon Marshall for.

 

[ChambersWI]

I guess hes not the next Darrelle Revis anymore?

he has the talent to be up there. He's gotta get over the mental lapses. Hate to lose him.

Now that they've officially announced that they are rebuilding. Philbin should just say it already.

He's 24 years old. How much younger do you think they want to rebuild with?

It's a 2nd round and a conditional pick

We have 2 first rounders to get mike Wallace

 

[bobw999]

I bet Vontae picks us off when we play the Colts this season...

I'm pretty sure Wallace is signing with Pittsburgh this weekend or next few days. It seems to be after watching the preseason and hard knocks they (the Dolphins) would be looking for a WR though. Considering the Dolphins were the 25th ranked passing defense last season and looking perhaps worse this year I can't say I'm to upset with seeing Davis move on. I would of hoped they could of milked the deal a little bit more though.

We are getting 2 picks according to twitter. The 2nd one is a conditional pick that, if rumors are true, could be as high as a 4th.

Can you point me in the direction that says two picks? All I can find is just the one 2nd rounder. Would be better if there is more involved in the compensation.

Vontae Davis under contract through 2013, Sean Smith under contract through this year. Let's trade the guy under contract for 2 years.

Must not have been one of the 53 "right guys" to make the team.

 

[Mogwai]

We just traded a 24 yr old 1st round CB who has been a solid starter and flashed legitimate high level skill for a 2nd round pick... This is such an unbelievably bad trade and a perfect example of how a franchise fails to move forward.

 

[chrispepper]

Can someone explain to me how this is us rebuilding?? Vontae is hardly the most senior player on the team. He's been in the league 4 years. Hes a young talented corner with tons of potential, and we've just got rid of him for a 2nd round pick which might not amount to anything.

 

[Spesh]

Unbelievable. Simply unbelievable.

 

[Lilseb93]

He's 24 years old. How much younger do you think they want to rebuild with?

No I mean they are trading their best players for picks as if this season means nothing. Full Marlins Mode.

 

[Casas9425]

Armando Salguero is reporting that a player from the Colts could be heading our way. Stay tuned.

 

[Tiko377]

We have 5 picks in the first 3 rounds next year

 

[bird33]

would be a good trade if this was a rebuilding year, which it is but.....WE HAVE THE BIGGEST MORON IN ALL OF SPORTS MAKING THE PICKS!!!!!!!! hello #1 overall pick next year. we better start scouting offensive tackles....
