BenchBledsoe Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 ESPN is reporting that the Colts are looking to trade Edge "for less than a first rounder". It is no secret that he wants to play in his home town and has never been truly happy in Indy. Where there is smoke there's fire. . . and despite the Indy front office and Edge often speaking in politically correct terms about this, it is likely happening. For the Dophins to get him for less than a first is sick. But, it's going to happen. . . you heard it from this pessimist first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am still recovering from ricki, I cannot handle another good back. Can't they draft a back that will take a few years to get better? I was so looking forward to those two guarenteed wins next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can stuff him. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typical TBD Guy Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 The Dolphins have no 2nd rounder, so what will they trade if not their first rounder? Surtain and a 3rd maybe? Taylor and something? I'm getting fed up with the AFC East. The toughest division in the NFL is only getting tougher now that the Dolphins are quickly bouncing back.

Come on give us your best defenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderstealer Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 If Edge goes to Miami and they land a half decent qb like Garcia. You'd have to consider them contenders for the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone suspects Miami will be improved this coming season, forcing some team to slide down to the cellar. . . guess who the experts, per the Vegas lines, say that will be?

I'd be more worried about Henry going to Miami (but only because of the revenge factor). CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Waht's with all the whining in this thread? The LAST team I'm worried about is an aging and weak Dullfelon squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevbeau Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I'd rather have them get Edge and NOT draft Ronnie Brown. Edge is still a decent back, but I think he'll find the going a little tougher when the D isn't trying to cover 3-4 recievers...plus he's got a few years in the tank, we're as a Brown, Williams, or Benson could haunt us for years to come.

CW 268941[/snapback] I'll ditto that as well. I wouldn't say "over the hill" but certainly not a top 5 RB anymore and hasn't been the same since his knee injury.

You'd have to consider them contenders for the division. 268954[/snapback] those players can't block. and until the Dolphins spend some money on an offensive line, it won't matter if they have Jim Brown and Walter Payton in their backfield....they will suck. in regard to Edge....I think he is more likely to end up in Tampa Bay. and Shaun Alexander will end up in Miami.

Though they're only about 1 Million under the cap right now. Maybe cutting Pittman and Garner would help, but.........the money EJ wants would kill most teams near the cap. He wants more money than Portis got from Wash. Its going to be tough to deal him. My thought is, he stays in Indy for just one more year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
