What about Matt Flynn and Mario Williams? Would it be ok then if we signed both of them? I'm just asking to gauge where people are at.

Because I think this is a case of one move setting up another big move.

Are you fucking kidding me.  Who is Flynn going to throw to?  Who gives a shit about a sack when your down in the score by 30 points?

Hartline is our #1 receiver at the moment, think about that!

Free agency is 90 min old. Relax a bit..lol

There will be a lot of trades and a lot of moves! It isn't like we lost Jerry Rice!!!! We lost a guy who has led the NFL in drops since 2008

The past 2 offseasons I have railed against Ricky and Brandon. Ricky went last year, now this year Marshall is gone! Things are looking up for my favorite team ! Life is good!

I guess to be the Dolphins GM, all you have to do is read GM For Dummies.  How else can you explain trading away one of the best offensive weapons on thus team coming off a Pro Bowl MVP year for less than you got him??  If the Dolphins fail to land Peyton Manning, then I'd have to assume Jeff Ireland's job is in jeopardy.

Well, I can see where he is coming from. From what I see on the reports everyone sees this as a good thing for Chicago. I've seen on ESPN people saying Manning was attracted to playing with Marshall and they didn't think it was a Manning thing in getting rid of him. Like I said until we see how this plays out it is kind of hard to really make a judgement although the general consensus is two thirds was probably cheap for him.

Armando reported this deal was pretty much done at the combine a few weeks back. So, they just had to wait to today to announce it.

Another example of how erroneous the "tampering" rules are

This isn't tampering. GM's can talk trade of players under contract on their team

Oh really?..either way..don't care.  Goodell will change the rules tomorrow or something anyways.



Back to Marshall.  There's nothing really that great via free agency right now.  Vincent Jackson is going to Tampa, Garcon is going to Washington, Mario Manningham is a number 3 WR who will want number 1 money, Reggie Wayne would've been a great number 2 option.  I guess Miami's going to make a push for Blackmon now?


Just left a lot more questions than answers

At this point if I really wanted to sign Manning. I would be signing some of his ex team members as cheap as possible, ASAP !!!!

I am still stunned by how incredibly dumb this move was.  This team is on the cusp of filling its last major hole and somehow feels compelled to unnecessarily go out and create a brand new hole.  For two third round picks!

Maybe we can get Flynn and then spend the next 3 years looking for someone for him to throw to!
