DOLPHINS: Interesting Trade Rumor: Joshua Cribbs

[Salas, Randy]

According to Armando (not his reporting, but reposted from the Dayton Daily News), the Dolphins have inquired about trading for Cleveland Browns returner Joshua Cribbs. He is currently ranked No. 3 in punt returns and No. 8 in kickoff returns.

To the original report, Armando rightly adds: "The odds are against it happening as Cribbs will cost the Dolphins a draft pick or a player, plus a new contract. The Dolphins don't like giving up draft picks in trade and giving big contracts to new players. But ... He is really good. He is 26 years old. And the Dolphins can use the upgrade and the big-play potential. Miami still has not decided on a kick returner following the loss of Patrick Cobbs to season-ending knee surgery."
