This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
He is considering this situation. Even if we trade down to 8 we will fill a position of need, and get a lot back in return. If you figure 4 QBs, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 OT and 1 LB will probably be the first 10 picked. Any of those will fill a position of need (except Qb I am sticking with Tua)
