Willing to Trade Down?

With the Dolphins trading Tannehill to the Titans puts us in an interesting situation with Miami selection 17. 

You never know how this draft will sort its way out.  But if one of the decent QBs fall to #16 we could be in a position to trade our pick away and pick up an additional pick maybe even a 2020 1st rounder.

Would you be willing to trade down to a lower 20ish pick and get more picks?

What would you consider if you were Hurney?

Did I miss something?

 

Doesn't the Dolphins have the 13th pick?

Generally speaking since the draft is deep at our positions of need, trading down makes sense. However, if an elite DE is there you have to take him. 

I say we work with Cleveland to get Ogbah and then the pressure is really off and just take best available.

I don't think that a guy with 12.5 sacks over the past three years is going to do much to take away from our need for pass rushers.

Totally agree, but getting a guy that is a serviceable starter would keep us from having to reach in the first round if say 5-6 edge guys go before we pick. It's not likely but it is possible. 

I love Brian burns, but If he is the only top edge left does he fit our system? Also, I think Ferrell is overrated at 16 and rashan gary is a very boom or bust selection. Could be great, but hia production in college is mediocre for a guy with his athleticism. We need a sure thing. That's bosa, Allen, sweat and burns. 

Ferrell has some red flags as does Gary as first rounders and burns may not fit our scheme. Those first two are fine later in the first, imo.

I'd prefer to take Charles omeniure (sp?) If he's available in the 2nd round.

Depends.  Let's say we have 3 players on top of our board of relatively equal value---for example, Cody Ford (T), Brian Burns (DE/OLB), and Jachai Polite (DE/OLB).  Does not  matter how you  have these players rated--that would be missing the point.  Then yes, make  the trade.

Agree all three of those guys are great players but a little rich at 16 to me. Polite and burns may not be great fits at 4-3 end and Ford seems more a guard to me. I don't want to spend a 16 pick on a guard. If we knew he was a sure fire tackle then yes, draft him. Some risk though

      Also hit the over.  Banking on Man City running up the score and Leeds getting a lucky strike.

      Tailed you.  Also Free Play, which is why the risk shows $0.00. Let me look at hoops and get back to you.  Always fade Hubert, haha.

      Hard to say right now, but good thinking.  I look at this as the info we need for free agency.  Looks like we are going to free up about $10m so far; watch to see if any contracts (Moehrig, Horn, Brown, etc) are reworked the first week of March.  Then after free agency, we will have a pretty good idea. Right now, to be fair to your question because I am sure you are aware of its timing: In free agency, I see us adding an OT of some sort and drafting one at some point.  It all depends on how they view Ickey, Nijman, and maybe BC.  That OT could be Nijman.  I do not see the future OT--just a stop gap. I see the Panthers signing a free-agent center.  I think the market is strong.  I see Fortner from the Saints as a prime candidate and his salary is estimated at $6m by Spotrac.  the Saints are $42m over the cap, so I doubt they are able to re-sign many of their own.  He will be 28.  I also expect them to re-sign Corbett (depth) at a vet min ($1.5m) deal. I also see free agency as a strong area to get a free safety who can play and is under age 30.  Hawkins, Cook, and Bryant are all around age 27-28, play at a high level, and should be had for about $15m per. EDGE: Arnold Ebiketie is a good value because he gets pressure at a high percentage.  He had 2 sacks and Atlanta just drafted 2 pass rushers last year.   He has a 70+ PFF rating and will (Spotrac) demand about $9m.  While he is not the answer, he is a great third down option with Princely and he would allow for Jones, Scourton, and Princely to develop.
