Brandon Marshall traded to Miami

[Alexander]

Playoffs absolutely. Add a ridiculous playmaking WR to a team that runs the ball with the best in the NFL?

If they can find some safeties I think they're division favorites. Henne was adequate last season, he should improve.

They need safeties and also a few pass rushers. I fully expect them to move down in the draft and try and pick that second round choice back up.

WR position is all about efficiency

Roy Williams - 38 catches and 7 TDs = 1 td every 5.42 catches

Marshall - 101 catches and 10 tds = 1 td every 10 catches

Roy Williams easily would have had 18 TDs with 101 catches..Marshall isnt that good

Please tell me this is sarcasm.

Please tell me this is sarcasm.

I think he is right.

If you mathematically take the ratio, it could happen.

Sadly, Williams would have to be targeted over 400 times to catch 100 plus passes but that is besides the point.

400 targets hahah..that is almost 4 out of every 5 passes thrown during the course of the entire season thrown his way

Id give 2 2nds for Marshall

With each passing WR trade in the NFL, all guys better than Roy Williams, who are being had for much less than a 1st, 3rd and 5th, my hate for Jerry Jones grows deeper.

Funny, even Roy Williams was had for less.

Roy Williams = 8
Brandon Marshall = 7

Marshall was targetted twice as much as Roy if not more.

Nice try.

The difference between an immediate late one and Miami's immediate 12th pick in the second? 13-14 slots of difference at the top of the second round. It's not insignificant, but it's not huge.

That gap closes when you compare our immediate pick at what looked likely to be the very bottom of the third round to a likely mid-second one year removed.

Granted, we undperperformed badly in 08, and the value of the picks we gave up was significantly higher than we expected, but it's only fair to judge teams by the reasonable expectations for future picks at the time they make their trades.

You don't think Miami is expecting to be picking lower next year?

Here's another difference.

Miami still has room to play in this draft. They didn't shell out a ton from 1 draft, leaving themselves with little to work with.

Miami can (and probably will) trade to the end of the 1st and pick up a second rounder and then some.

Dallas gave away a lot in one draft and could only trade back to bolster their special teams and waiver wire.

Straight value is only part of the trade equation. The Marshall trade wins on value and wins in other areas as well.

That RW trade has stunk and gets a whole lot crappier with each new WR trade that goes down. Hopefully it starts to pay off a little more.

Miami panic'd because they have struggled to draft a WR or land one in FA. Bill hates drafting WR's high so he'd rather go get a proven one.
Paying 2 seconds plus 10 mil per year to a guy one strike from a year long suspension is bananas IMHO.

I have a feeling that Bill is not in charge anymore.

Matter of act, I wouldn't be shocked if we hear his " retirement " speech after the draft.

 

[bbgun]

Marshall doesn't strike me as a Big Bill kind of player. That's a lot of money and picks for a ticking time bomb.

You poor soul. Have another Kleenex. We're out of binkies but you can pick one up back at that other place where you are seen as intelligent.

And a small little detail that Marshall caught 100+ for the 3rd straight season.

yea I wonder how long it will take Bill to refer to Marshall as "the Player"

Embrace the hatred... Savor it.. be engulfed by it.. make sure it covers every single fiber of your being, every second of your life...

to the point where you'll even consider becoming a Deadskins fan just to spite the old fool.. better yet, don't even consider it.. just show him up and start the process.. right NOW !

:storm: :devil: :explode:

The irony is.

We heard so much whining and complaining about T.O. when he was here for his off the field B.S. but at least he produced.

Everyone that is disgusted with the Roy move have a right to complain as much or more than the anti-T.O. crowd did. There is a serious double standard, if the downfield blocking lovers can complain about Owens' off the field B.S nonstop. Then the fans that actually like their receivers producing, have a right to tirelessly complain about Roy's on the field production - as much or more, than the anti-Owens camp tirelessly complained about non-footbal related matters.

And you're complaining about other people complaining, which in essence is its own form of complaining. So you sir, can have a kleenex as well.
