Would the Dolphins be interested in trading for any of our WR's?? | Page 2

I know I will get fried for this, but the Dolphins are razor thin at WR. They need WR help and might "just might" be willing to give up a low draft pick to get some healthy bodies into camp with 4 weeks to go. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap1000000049081/article/dolphins-search-for-chad-johnsons-replacement-at-wr?module=HP11_hot_topics The Niners are stacked at WR, and rather than let one get picked off with no compensation I would consider any of these options. Nathan Palmer- 7th round pick- assuming he would not make the PS and picked up on waivers, why not? Kyle Williams- 6th round pick- brings more NFL experience. Would trade him for a 6th as his contract lenght is short and I think the team has better KR/PR's Brett Swain- 7th in 2014- need I say more Now the following are WR's I want to make the roster but would part with for the following draft picks. 1. Ted Ginn- 3rd rounder- want his KR/PR skills, but would part with him for a 3rd rounder 2. Michael Crabtree- 1st rounder- With Manningham and Moss, willing to part with Crabtree for a 1st round pick in the future, probably a high first rounder in 2013. Go ahead an fry me all you want, just having pre season fun. And as a value based GM, I feel most players have a trade value and can be replaced. When I say "most" I would never trade franchise players like Willis or J. Smith.

Nobody is going to trade for our receivers when 1 or 2 of them are certain to be waived at the end of camp.

Now if somebody wanted Crabtree for a (what would end up being a high) 1st rounder I think I would be very tempted.

These kinds of things don't happen much in the NFL though, so It is highly unlikely in this case.

Because they are thin at WR, a WR needs to go through training camp to get timing with the qb's. it is fantasy, madden like, just bored.

Hank Baskett was an UDFA that the Eagles traded for before the season, so trading Palmer is not unprecedented.

i disagree

anyone who gets cur their number 1 prirotity team to them would be dolphins as thats where they would see the msot playing time

i think it would be easier for them to wait for cuts than rather trade a late round pick for someone who will get cut anyway

only exception i see is they see a hidden gem somewhere that will fit their system but is not fitting well with the current team WR is on and they have to have him or they actually trade for a starter which i can not see happening

none of our WR fit that bill

No, all they have to do is wait for roster cuts.

If we did trade - we don't need any more low draft picks. If it ever happened we should trade draft positions in the 5-7th rounds.

What about just keeping are team the way it is! We have a retarded amount of talent to help in injury and fatigue! Hey don't we have all this depth for a reason!! We want to make sure we don't fall short on any one position! This is no doubt a Super BOWL! Make no mistake about it!!!!! These players were brought in for a reason. To make sure it solidify are super bowl!!!!! If Miami wants to find receiver's tell them to look some where else we have are for a reason it are year goooo niners!!!

Do you seriously think they are interested in our WR's? Just by watching the week 1 highlights of the NFL, I saw a no name WR from the Giants catch a TD with one hand. Is he now worth a 3rd rounder?

Palmer hasnt done anything yet, and I dont think their front office is watching him catch 6 yard passes.

The guy's stock value went up when the defender had inside position and Brett gave him that stick with his right leg and adjusted to the back shoulder throw from Alex for the TD. I mean come on how many WR's can do that in the league? That is pure talent and skill.

Do you think they will bite on that?

No way I'm trading our only white reciever....dude could be the next Welker, Nelson or Don Bebe...
