The Texans must be rebuilding to have traded a pro bowl linebacker......sarcasm ...

Def surprised there were not more suitors eagles didn't give up much..

 

[napsndreds]

Oh wow cool

Dolphin news?

 

[dolpns13]

Where exactly does it say the Texans inquired with Miami but Miami declined?

 

[mrhankey81701]

So the Eagles traded a mid round pick for a linebacker coming off an injury. I fail to see the Dolphins relevance here

 

[X-Pacolypse]

Who cares?

What did the Eagles give for him? You say the Eagles didn't give up much but it doesn't say what draft picks they are trading?
So how can you say they didn't give up much. Just says MULTIPLE draft picks.

Not Fins related,but great trade for the Eagles. Ryans is a damn good linebacker.

Eagles sent the Texans the 99th overall pick in the 4th round(previously acquired from TB). In additon the two teams swapped 3rd round picks with the Texans moving up from 89th to 77th in the round.
