Wallace to Vikings might happen tonight

[MikeO]

I have read in a lot of places but haven't seen it confirmed by anyone. The 5th round pick Miami got for Wallace is the first pick in Round 5. So if thats true that's a nice little bonus but like I said, not sure if that is accurate

[Run Ricky Run]

What a terrible move.  Jarvis landry is not that good.  His 10 receptions for like 35 yards the last game is good?  How many picks were bounced off his hands?

Are you high? Among WRs with at least 50 catches last season, Landry was top-5 in catch rate. The guy is about as sure-handed as WRs get.

And limited in speed and size which makes him only able to play the slot receiver position.   This team had its deep threat in Wallace and traded him away for basically a pound of honey chicken and a quart of pork fried rice.   Funny how two prolific receivers (Marshall and Wallace) came here for big bucks and underperformed.  Marshall played better in Chicago and I'll bet Wallace is going to light it up in Minnesota.

Or...this team had it's deep threat who whined too much and caught the ball too little, and dealt him away once we had a younger, better deep threat to replace him.

Marshall played better in Chicago...

And in an eerie parallel, Brandon Marshall, like Mike Wallace, was just traded for a 5th round pick. I'm sure you recognize both receivers' value much better than their (now) former employers though, seeing as how you're so close to the situation.

Landshark, your act is old. it's tired. What your saying makes zero sense.

If Marshall was so good in Chicago why did they give him away?

[masterfins]

I would have liked to see how Wallace preformed this year, as I think he was finally starting to show some maturity.  But, I'm not terribly upset he was traded given his past lack of performance, and cap cost.  Many blamed Tannehill for being out of sync with passes to Wallace, but I think Wallace's inconsistent route running was the reason for under throwing and overthrowing to Wallace; I expect Tannehill to actual improve with Wallace gone.

[MikeO]

Vikings just cut Greg Jennings. Jennings and Philbin has ties from GB. Miami needs a WR. Would not be shocked to see the Fins kick the tires on Jennings

[EDGECRUSHER]

Jennings would be fine to kick the tires on as a #3 WR, but only if he is cheap and comfortable being essentially the 5th option to throw to.

Not a big surprise, he was due to make $9 Million this year.

We're debating the true value of Mike Wallace and Brandon Marshall and you call me the name of a beer label??   You've taken weirdness to new heights, pal!!

Maybe the Bears and Fins gave up their most talented receivers for the same reason the Marlins always give away their most talented players... they weren't winning with them, so try something without them.  While that approach gets you younger and cheaper, it doesn't always work.  And it certainly doesn't please the fans who are paying for the $10 beers at the Joe
