Sam Hurd on the trading block, are Dolphins interested?

[FinAtic8480]

Sam Hurd is not looking to leave the Cowboys, but he is hoping for a chance to be a regular contributor as a wide receiver.

According to a source, the Cowboys have had some inquiries on Hurd's availability but nothing appears imminent.

Hurd finds himself in a precarious spot with the Cowboys in part because of his $1.759 million salary and spot on the depth chart at wide receiver. While he has had a solid camp and preseason (a team-high 11 catches for 132 yards), he does not appear to be at the top of the rotation with Miles Austin , Roy Williams, Dez Bryant and Patrick Crayton working more with the regulars.

Hurd, however, is one of the Cowboys best special teams players. He had 19 special teams' tackles to lead the unit.

I posted days ago that I was informed Miami was looking closely at the Cowboys' receivers and were expecting one to be released. Now this article comes out where it appears Hurd is on his way out of Dallas and teams are inquiring about him. I don't expect no one to trade for him, but I do expect Miami to be heavily interested in him after he is released or when he is released. Especially after trading Camarillo.

If he's released, sure take a look at him, but no trade at that salary for a 5th WR.

 

[FinAtic8480]

No one will trade for a WR who everyone knows is likely gone in the next coming days.

 

[X-Pacolypse]

He'll be released.

If he's released, sure take a look at him, but no trade at that salary for a 5th WR.

Also if Hurd comes to Miami he will be our 4th WR, you can bet on that.

 

[hoops]

if he has to clear waivers to us look out for st louis who lost donnie avery for the season and needs a wideout BAD...i see him getting claimed before he gets to us...

too bad its not ogletree on the block...

Id rather see what Moore can do or try and sign a speedster that can also help on returns than get Hurd.

Seems like Hurd's the word.

Welcome to Miami, Birdman.

Is he any good? What type of receiver is he?

He is not eligible for waivers, would go straight to Free Agency

Welcome to Miami, Birdman.

A trashman reference, very nice CK.

Archer suggests the Rams and Chiefs as possible teams that could look to Hurd to bolster their receiver depth.

Hurd is due $1.759 million this year, which should soften any trade market for him.

Hurd is not gonna be traded, they will wait to see if he is cut and then they will pounce. If he is acquired I believe our WR core will look like this:

Marshall
Hartline
Bess (slot)
Hurd
Moore
