Okay INFINS.... You used a big word (autonomous). Assuming you got the spelling right, I'm not talking to you anymore about this. :evil:
... go you! :tongue:inFINSible said:I checked...it's right!! :cpatch:
Wrong....Those who are trying to trade up for our pick need people to believe trade is unlikely, it is in thier best interest to do so. We need to trade down for more picks one HELL of alot more than we need anybody one player we could possibly get a the #2 spot!!!! A trade down WILL happen one way or another. And we can't go by that stupid trade value chart and it would be ignorant if we did. I give Saban alot more credit than that. He has a great poker face, plain and simple, but we will compromise the so-called value chart and trade down, guaranteed!!! Please people look at this situation from an objective perspective. We would literaly screw ourselves by picking any one player at the #2 spot.Da 'Fins said:And, you may have a hard time getting value on future trades.
Personally, I think the trade charts are over-rated. But, your summary is useful and illustrates precisely why I've been saying (with much disagreement) that a trade is very unlikely. Not impossible, but unlikely.

inFINSible said:I understand that but, he can't let other's perceptions shape the way he improves the team. If there is a chance to pick up extra draft picks and still get comparable value he HAS to do it. It's about improvong THIS team not keeping up appearances.
If team's want to look at that as being an easy mark, more power to them when they come to The Dolphins with ridiculous trade offers. I'm sure they'll get laughed at a few times and then get the message that we are going to do what's best for THE MIAMI DOLPHINS always.
One year that may mean, taking what we can get, and another year that may mean taking what we want. Each year is autonomous and should be treated as such, IMO.

This draft is becoming a two-player race between Smith and Edwards. If Niners grab Smith and we take Edwards, what does that leave Browns with.
They don't need a RB, it's too high to take a defensive player so basically their options are Rogers or M. Williams and I'm not sure they're thrilled about either.
Unlikely anyone would trade up either because there's really not a player to move up for, so I think we could force their hand if they really wnat Edwards.
A second round pick might be enough to get them Edwards and we drop to No. 3.

I don't think we are looking for perfect value, but I think the vikings would have to do two firsts and like 4th and tampa would have to do First and second this year and first next..
ZOD said:I should mention another thought I've had.......
If there is a way we can get into Tampa's number 5 overall, there is a team I think would like to have it for Mike Williams.
Number 5 overall = 1700
San Diego -
12. 1200
28. 660

LithoMan said:Now, I would do the TB trade, for their 1st and second this year, and their 1st and 3rd next. Move down three, and we got 9 picks already for 06. I would do that, but they will take carnell. They aint goign to take Smith.
