He's awful against the run... Awful.

He had 635 snaps for the Dolphins in 2018 and had 6 1/2 sacks. That's OK but not worth $6.5 mil when combined with his ****** performance vs the run.

6.5MM for an edge rusher is cheap in today’s game. Guys like Jabaal Sheard got 8.5MM and he’s at best a similar type edge player.

Didn't do much in Miami the first 9 games.

Had a scathing article written on him by the Herald in the end of October.

Then something clicked the last 7 games, picking up 5.5 sacks in 7 games, only going two games out of seven without a sack.

Miami did play a 4-3 last year, but a wide 9 variation.

Well that's perfect
He can show up when D Law does his yearly Houdini routine in November and December

We could pair him up with DLaw. They seem to complete each other.

I think $6.5 mil plus a draft pick is too pricey.

Marinelli likes guys who can play a competent run defense from DE... And we've seen him sit guys that couldn't.

Quinn is awful at run defense. Can't see it being a good match.

What's it going to be then, eh?

Yeah, strike this.

The signing of Kerry Hyder should end all discussion on whether we need a DE.

If we can get the second half of 2018 Quinn it can be a good trade, depending on what pick is moved.

Possible upgrade at RDE with no loss of comp pick and no forced pick in the draft to upgrade the hole RG made again

Hope it’s for a pick next year, unless it’s our 7th this year. I don’t want to give up a 5th or more for what could be a 1 year rental.

Hopefully it’s a late round pick next year but if it’s this year then oh well I’d still do it.

I am on board with this but it better be for a late round pick.

This X 1000. If it’s for a 5th and swapping picks I’m ok with it. If it’s for anything higher I’d be very meh on it.

But he does fit a need and would slide into starting RE and Would mean DE is no longer a need.

Lawrence and Quinn start.

Armstrong, Taco, Hyder depth.

Crawford slides in
