Vikings open to trade talks for No. 3 overall pick

If the Rams don't want to trade maybe we can get RGIII at the 3rd pick?

Trade soliai?

I wonder if Miami can resign soliai and trade him to the vikings for the #3 pick and our #9 pick?

Soliai will eat up alot cap if we sign him and trade

Best thing for Dolphins is to offer Starks with our 1st and 2nd round pick. Resign Langford. We will have Landford and Odrick as our starting DT and Tony Mc Daniel as back up

Wish we could sim this season

that means that we would have to land a starting caliber G in free agency...

It will allow us to move Jerry to RT, and then move up to get RG3. That is provided the Rams stay at 2, or don’t trade it to the Browns. I have a hunch that the Rams want to get out of that Pick desperately. They need help at multiple positions. Fisher could trade down, grab a DE, and with the extra second round pick, move back into the first and grab a wr for Bradford. Both teams would be happy. Also, does anyone here believe that Ireland isn’t working the phones now trying to see what it would take to move up in the draft? It seems only logical because he would have to know whether to pursue a FA qb or to draft one. I hope he is at least calling around to gauge interest.

Where is Oronde Gadsden when we need him?

I'm sure Ireland is looking to trade up

but with the Browns two first round picks it’ll be hard to out bid them.

Browns have the 4th pick, I never seen a team trade up to move up 1 spot

Wish we could sim this season

It would be 2 spots

and if they feel Wash, Miami or another team might trade up for RGIII they might consider it.

I'd rather have RG3 than Manning

I think he has a lot more upside, and we don’t even know if Manning can ever be even a shadow of his old self. The Colts won’t let him go because he is still a great qb.

No More Retreads!

how did the retread thing work for the saints with Brees, and with Arizona and Warner??

Tennessee did pretty good with Hasselbeck too.

Where is Oronde Gadsden when we need him?

The Colts will most certainly get rid of him…they have to pay him 28 million on March 8th. They will not pay him, and pay Luck-makes no sense. And if the doctors medically clear him, he would make us a contender the day he signs a contract. I agree its a risk, but so is drafting a college qb. I admit I love RG3 as well. But Peyton makes us relevant again instantly.

Flynn

Is the smartest choice!
It’s like drafting a rookie with NFL experience.
Plus, he already know Philbin’s system so there should not be any learning curve.
He clearly has confidence and should make a difference with all the weapons the Dolphins have.
He did beyond phenomenal in his couple of starts with Green Bay.
Sure he had one of the best teams around him but he will have that in Miami.
Younger than Manning and more experienced than RG3.
