I don't entirely agree with the trade, but I'll go with it and trust the front office.  Aside from getting two 3rd rounders, freeing up cap space, and getting rid of someone that can disrupt the locker room, MIA has opened up the possibility to address multiple holes in the lineup, however, they probably won't be at the talent level of Marshall.  I'll wait a little while before I pass judgment.

Since the team now has 2 starting WR positions to fill, I'm assuming this means that Justin Blackmon's stock has risen significantly for the Dolphins.

Would he even want to play for the Dolphins after the way Dez Bryant was treated by Ireland?  I'm sure Bryant will offer his 2 cents to Blackmon.

Great Point.   If Miami is going to use a first round pick on Blackmon, why not just use that same first round pick on Mike Wallace?!

Mike Wallace is a very good WR, but I think Blackmon has the potential to be one of few elite.  Potential being the key word.

So now we go all in on Mario Manningham right?

I wish I had the desire to look back and see how many people bad mouthing this are also the ones who were bashing Marshall during the season. I'm a bit indifferent. I think we can find another #1 receiver fairly easily.

The only way this deal makes sense is if Manning and Wayne were lined up, now Wayne has re-signed with the Colts.  Maybe we can get Leinart and TO.

Two 3rd round picks are very valuable.
...to a team that's rebuilding, not for a team that's attempting to sign a 36-year-old starting QB.

If this team is trying to win now (which is the entire point of signing Manning), you don't get rid of the best skill position player on your team.  It makes no sense unless you get a HUGE payout.  This is the kind of deal you take when you are trying to get something for a player because he's got one year left on his contract and something is better than nothing.

It's not like Miami is NO and had to choose between Colston, Moore, Meachem, and Henderson.  Miami just blasted a gaping hole in their WR corps.  The Dolphins need to sign Reggie Wayne just to have a decent group of WRs. scratch that: the 2011 Dolphins are screwed at the WR position, period.

Not a bad pickup.  Would be an upgrade over Hartline, but with Marshall gone, it's not enough.
