REPORT: Miami after Marshall, trade involving Ginn

Hey guys I live in Colorado and know quite a few Bronco bloggers....most of them are very upset that they are on the verge of losing Marshall. They feel the Broncos should not give him up for less then a first. I believe the Seahawks have TWO first round picks, the 6th and 14th, but there is no way they give either of these up for Marshall....the next Seaturds pick is #60. So we can offer more with our 44th pick...I think Ginn Jr. or Smiley would complete the deal. Look for Marshall to become a Phin TOMORROW.

 

hahah then trade next years 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 7th to go to number one to get Bradford.....you know to bring in some "competetion" for Sanchez...

 

if it doesnt happen, im coming back here and removing my thanks.

 

send the 43, ginn and smiley for BM id do that before drafting 12 for dez
fleece mcdaniels

 

dude I wish I could as optimistic as you bro...I will say that a 1st round for Marshall is out for anybody, Seattle is bargining amongst themselves in that regard...

the problem is if, Seattle says, "Okay Miami is offering their 2nd and whatever, lets just give the 14th to them to seal the deal" that would kill Miami's hopes...and mine as well....

 

the thing with that situation is, YES, Marshall beat her, however there was times when he got arrested and the charges got dropped as well.....he is a jerk for hitting her, absolutely!! However she was no angel either...

 

Speculation or heard something of this tune from one of said blogger friends?

Don't play with my heart, bro.

 

I'd prefer Bryant but I really don't think he's going to be available at #12........ and being able to get Marshall and still have our #1 pick, that's huge.

For that reason alone I'd take the gamble.......because one thing we know we are not gambling on is does he have elite talent. Our offense would be scary.

 

thats pretty much the name of the game, all championship teams have taken gambles, have had a little luck along the way, and also have a solid foundation of core players too..

 

no matter how it plays out the Broncos are smoking if they trade marshall and draft dez

 

Absolutely, but they dont have much of a choice, that relationship is beyond repair......can u imagine Marshall at Denver's TC this year??

 

oh ive seen it all
mcdaniels is a liitle god
marshall is no saint but the way josh and bowlen handled cutler
ouch

 

what do you think the Seahawks are offering. Deion Branch and a 2nd?

 

I understand.

Where did Marshall go to high school? (in Florida)....where did he go to college? (UCF - Orlando), everyone knows how much he loves the clubs, and Miami and Atlanta....why would he go live in Seattle???

 

That would just suck.

 

ESPN's Chris Mortensen's Twitter page.

 

Maybe he's into the grundge scene.

 

Its not his choice.

 

Probably, and Branch and Mcdaniels has a relationship, so should that get in the way? I don't see it. Ginn is way way younger than Branch, so more value (per se ) Plus our 2nd rounder is higher in the draft than the seahawks so unless the Seahawks give up that 14th pick i don't see them getting him.

 

agreed. i only wonder who he has a better relationship with. Parcells or John Schneider. all things being equal you do the trade with friends. Plus the kid is going to want to make a splash and I'm sure Pete Carroll is too. This is going to be interesting

 

Ginn and the 40-whatever pick is better IMO than a 60 something and Branch......Branch is done.....now Ginn sucks, but at least the kid burns, and is somewhat young...more upside...

 

sooooo, who thinks Bess is giving up #15?

 

Bess is on the phone right now with BM saying if he comes he can have whatever number his heart desires haha!

 

I have to remain negative....cant give in, only will have my dreams broken again....BRANDON MARSHALL ISNT COMING HERE!!!!

 

And as always ESPN being the slow one to circulate this, http://espn.go.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/21498/marshall-to-dolphins-rumors-circulating
and, http://espn.go.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/21494/miami-getting-in-marshall-mix
lol maybe they can first report the trade

 

Just enough time to buy lotion and tissues.

 

so question. if seattle overpays for marshall would you get angry at our FO for not getting Marshall anyway? or will you be happy they made a good effort

 

Not entirely true, I remember when he was at the Broncos' Dove Valley training camp last year and threatening to sit out. He can always threaten not to play if he doesn't like the deal.

Morton, Shefter and Clayton all seem to agree the trade will go down in the next day or two.

 

possible scenero...

1. Miami trades Ted Ginn Jr. , Jason Taylor (who they would have to re-sign), and their second-round pick for Brandon Marshall.

somewhere in the US of A Killaphins is laughing....

 

What do you consider overpaying? The sixth pick?

 

overpay as in what Prez the 6th...nothing we can do.....the 14th, I still would have given the 12th, but thats it.....if it is dueling 2nd I dont see how Miami DOESNT come out on top...

 

Any player can choose not to play...but then there goes the money.

 

I would say 14th. Bottom line there is still the risk this guy will be banned in a year or two for future transgressions. Personally I'm willing to give up a 2nd for him and a player like Ginn or Smiley but a 1st is too much for that risk IMO. The guy is a perennial top five WR but you have to weight the risks IMO

 

I totally agree with you. I don't think Carrol wants to give up either of his two first round picks. So better package of picks/players wins. What if Seattle gives up their 2nd round this year and a conditional 2nd round next year that can turn into a 1st based on playing time?

 

I could see that, however Seattle needs their picks, they suck!! and are in desperate need of help...they have an even worse LB corp than Miami did last year...no QB, medicore RB's, Carlson good, avg line...they really dont need Marshall right now.....Carroll is a wack and loves offense so he is giddy, wish Holmgren was still there to calm his arse down..

 

Right i have always loved for the Dolphins to get Marshall. I don't see why Carrol thinks WR is his most pressing need. Getting Younger is his need! The seahawks are a pretty old team compared to their division counterparts. I don't believe the Seahawks will get Marshall, I don't see how they could with so many needs... What other teams are in the Dolphins position? Not many due to recent trades. Jets have their WR's, Ravens have Quan, Bengals are the only one's that need another WR to become a better team.

 

Marshall is young....is essence they would be getting younger...

 

He's what 26? They have more pressing needs is the point. A WR won't change their defense, which looked horrendous. By the time Carroll puts the pieces to his puzzle together, Marshall will be nearing 30!
