Does anyone here foresee another trade with Minnesota. I know they are in need of R'B's maybe we can strike some trades any ideas?
 
Why does everyone want to trade away positions where Miami actually has alittle depth?
 
WHAT? They have Bennett, Williams, Moore, and Fason, and they have suspended Smith. They have 4 solid backs, and another solid back suspended. Why do they need more?

Screw Mn, I wouldn't trade them a freakin' stamp for culpepper right now, do you know how many times they have screwed or attempted to screw Us over? Screw MN. :fire:
 
are u crazy if there is anybody else in the league who has depth at rb it is minnesota. they have onterrio smith, michael bennet, moe williams mewelde more, and i think they drafted ciatrick fasion from florida. c'mon dolfans, people around here on finheaven are getting alittle over exagerated, with all the lets trade for t.o. or what would you want if we were to trade ronnie browm. we all know these things are not gonna happen. Lets stop making this great site a joke. I know some of you will be mad at me for saying this stuff but i feel that this needed to be said. lets keep this the best site on the web by having serious discusions about football. and one more thing for everyone out there go dolphins and f*ck the patriots, jets and bills

LOL I was thinking that and why does Minny always has to be involved in a trade with us. Last year we were going to trade for one of thier RB's and before the draft they would be our trade down partners.
 
I am opposed to a trade at WR because I think this team has just the right amount of depth.

I am for a trade at RB that makes sense because I think this team has one more NFL-worthy RB than will make the team. This does not mean I'm for trading Gordon for a 7th or Ricky for a 5th. It does mean that I think Miami should be open for business if the price is right.
 
Minnesota is deeper at RB than the Phins. After Ricky serves his 4 game suspension, the team will be pretty good at RB, but I don't think RB the team is as deep as many people think. Lamar Gordon was the 3rd RB in St. Louis, and I think that's about adequate for him, I don't see this incredible depth at RB, that many people believe the Phins have.

I can see it.

We have so much talent....we dont know who to cut. Man i feel so sorry for Travis Minor....I know someone will pick him up. He use to be safe because of ST...but Welker has shytted all over that parade.....especially since he put on some good muscle mass during the offseason

I don't think I'd call Minnesota deeper than Miami at the position, but I would suggest that they're both deep in slightly different ways. Miami has a guy who should be a starter (Brown, when he signs), a guy who may be starter material now (Williams), a guy who is a decent backup at most (Gordon), and two guys who are solid 3rd or 4th string backs (Harris, Morris). Minnesota has a bunch of #2 or #3 backs if you ask me.

I agree this means Miami and Minnesota aren't really matches, but I think this team could be with Jacksonville (if Taylor is worse than we have heard), Carolina, or Pittsburgh (if Staley is worse than we have heard).

Consider Ricky is out the first 4 games, Lamar Gordon has yet to show he's a decent player, and Sammie Morris is very average. I'm not on the Kay Jay Harris bandwagon, because perhaps i'm blinded by the fact that he is such a great RB, that nobody wanted to draft him. I think it's very easy to believe who is cut and that's Kay Jay.

If Michael Bennett can stay healthy he was a Pro Bowl back in 2002.
