Merged:Trade!!!! TUNA TAKES A COUPLE COWBOYS

Dolphins trade their 4th to the Cowboys fortwo,

Just pissin away picks to the Cowboys for Akin Ayodele and Anthony Fasano.

Are you ****ing kidding me?

We both posted this at the exact same time. I don't like either player.

I'm not really sure what to make of this. Could trading this fourth rounder mean that we possibly have a deal in place to send JT to (insert team name here) for a 2nd and a 4th ?

Oh god shoot me now.

The 4th would have gotten us one need filled, trading the 4th helped in the attempt to fill 2 needs. Fasano is young, and hasnt had much of a shot playing behind Witten. Keep in mind, these are Parcells/Ireland's players. Had the drafted Fasano to someday replace a guy like witten, whats wrong with bringing him here? He's already an improvement over anything we already have. Trying to be positive here!

True but Fasano did lose some playing time to some rookie TE named Curtis.

Wow you guys are pretty funny. We're celebrating in the club.

We just got two starters for the price of one. One is a promising young TE (comparable to a guy like Carlson, which we were probably gonna draft in the 3rd or 4th), and the other will be a 29 yr old ILB that has had 5 seasons of 100+ tackles in his career. I don't see how that's not two starters, which we could not possibly fill with one pick anyhow

Anyway we got Tampa and Jacksonville interested in JT. That's a 2nd and a 4th/5th. We'll get that pick back and then some

You and Brandon are right. I just hate seeing draft picks go, especially on a team that has this many needs but you guys both make a good point. Thanks.

I understand your reaction Alen, but keep in mind, we just got two guys who are capable starters, and only gave up a 4th round pick.

As I mentioned, im pretty confident at this point that JT is as good as gone for a 2 and 4, or a 2 and 5.

Relax out here guys, keep in mind... This is Parcells... how many teams has he rebuilt?

Have a brew and keep rockin! :beer:

I don't understand the anger towards this deal. We filled our need for another ILB with a veteran; Crowder, Ayodele, and Torbor should be a fine set. We also filled the need at TE by trading a 4th-round pick for a guy who was drafted in the 2nd-round merely two years ago and couldn't beat out Jason Witten, a Pro Bowl caliber TE. You get a veteran ILB in the deal as well.

Don't see the reason to complain.

we got 2 for one, what the hell was pissed away???? these guys will make the team.

Well I wanted Carlson and Lofton now that is looking slim.

Scouting report on Fasano from his draft.. This guy fills a nice need for us, will probably be our starting TE...

I think this is a good trade. We only traded away a forth rounf pick and I know we need as much picks as possible because we were 1 - 15 but we fill two needs and give away one forth round pick and Akin Ayodele and Anthony Fasano is a young tight end that could be promising

I was hoping for possibly Lofton as well but not anymore I guess....
