Adam Shefter is reporting it now on NFL Network. He's saying it took two second round picks, but details are still a little sketchy.

WOO-HOOO!!!

This makes me happy.

^^^ Supposedly two second round picks, but I'm still trying to find details.

Heard this on the radio on the way to work this morning.  This could be huge for the Fins.  They are desperate for a big time receiver and this guy is one of the best in the business.  I just hope that the baggage doesn't exceed the benefit.  If he performs like he has the past 3 years, he is definitely worth a number two this year and a number two next year.  2 number 2's isn't cheap, but draft picks are always a crapshoot anyway.  So I'll take a proven star for 2 number 2's anytime.

I'm happy!  Who wouldn't want a 6'5" monster like him lining up at WR? 

Only caveat:  ESPN says he's one misstep away from a year-long suspension?  Is that right?

Who will get him the ball.  Henne sucks, so maybe he is just a diversion?

Tepop, I could throw a 40-yd jump ball for Marshall to catch so you can be damn sure that as Henne doesn't *quite* suck as much as I do, he'll be fine.

Excellent pick-up from a production standpoint, just hope the Fins can control the off-field issues that he has had in the past.  Definitely an upgrade for the WR position, makes a legimate downfield threat AND open the underneath for Bess, Hartline and Camarillo.

Could be a BIG year for Henne and the offense.  Grin

since he is a fairly big receiver, he should help with blocking in the running game.

I look forward to your "Henne still sucks; it's only because of Marshall that he's having a great year" garbage in November.

I was absolutely blown away when I heard this news! 

I think this is a good move, but no slam dunk considering we appear to be giving up two seconds (which I consider to be great value picks) and we have to give this guy a pretty sizable contract.  At least we know that he is a hell of a player.

Finally someone who has superstar ability on our offense!  Time to sell some Jerseys and game tickets!
