MERGED: RUMOR-Dolphins trade for Lions Avril (UPDATE: FALSE)

[JTBRLZ]

Universal Draft just tweeted a rumor that the Dolphins have traded a 5th for Lions OLB Cliff Avril.

Rumour that Miami have traded a 5th rounder to Detroit for OLB Cliff Avril.

Remember hearing a lot of chatter about this guy a while ago when there were rumors we were talking to the Lions.

I think this means we go Safety or DT in 2nd round

That's a great pickup. Avril has tons of potential as a 3-4 OLB. I still think we gotta draft another OLB early though.

This has got to be the most active off-season I've ever witnessed. And we're not even done.

If that's the case then Miami won't draft an OLB unless it's late on Saturday. Anyone know much about this guy?
