Brandon Marshall: Our's for the taking

Brandon Marshall is the most interesting and hyped player in free agency as a Restricted Free Agent. Denver has placed a first round tender on Marshall, which is basically a "for sale" sign". A first round pick for a proven #1 WR with major playmaking is a steal. If it wasn't for his personality, he would probably already had been traded. However, because of his terrible chemistry, he has not been traded for. Although the Seattle Seahawks have drawn interest to Marshall, with the recent trade for Charlie Whitehurst, it seems as if they are going to try and save their draft picks. With no teams drawing to much interest in Brandon Marshall, the Broncos have become desperate, and have suggested they would be willing to give up Brandon MArshall for an early 2nd round pick. This is where the Miami Dolphins come into play.

Although Bill Parcells and Tony Sparano are known to not acquire players that will cause headaches (although we just signed Richie Incognito), at a price like this, I think they need to make an exception.

Although the 12th pick of the 2nd round is "early", it is not a top ten pick. Some might consider this a problem; however, we has some tricks up our sleeves. We have three 6th round pick's and two 7th round pick's (from trades last year involving Jason Taylor and more). Through one of these in with our 2nd round pick, and I think the Broncos would be willing to make the trade.

What does it mean to the dolphins to acquire Brandon Marshall? Check this out:

Brandon Marshall: Age 25

Brian Hartline: Age 23

Davone Bess: Age 24

Our top WR's would all be below the age of 25 ( We also have Greg Camarillo, Ted Ginn Jr., Patick Turner, and Pat White (probably going to be converted to a WR)). This means that for the next 7 years, we would not need to worry about the WR position. It would also help Chad Henne develop as a QB.

So what do you think, should we trade for Brandon Marshall?
