The Case For Trading the Farm for Lawrence/Fields

[Panfan35]

Only way I am giving up 3 1st is for Trevor,  fields is a huge bust I would take Wilson and lance ahead of him

Will be interesting to see who the new GM is and what his tendencies are. I don’t know how many more losing seasons Tepper will be ok with, doesn’t seem to me to be the kind of guy who is ok losing if he’s making money.

I personally don’t think trading multiple first rounders is the answer.

[Peon Awesome]

I'm not trading jack for any of these question marks when no one can agree who the hell is worth trading up for. I'd rather trade back, get some extra picks and draft someone from the next tier of guys in the event none of the 4 make it to us (e.g. Mac Jones, Trask). But I still think we have a very good chance at one of the 4 even at 9. Also, there's a good chance we move up a couple spots with teams ahead of us potentially snagging wins.

It's a really interesting pool.

I've had the chance to research Ireland, Peters and Dodds so far, and right now it's no exaggeration for me to say I'd be thrilled with any of one of them.

More to come, but it's looking like this could just be a great year to get a new GM.

Put simply the cost is too high to trade for Lawrence.  I do not want fields, as his performance against top competition was super poor.  Maybe the medical scare folks away from Wilson.  I am generally against trading up for or drafting a qb this year, but a trade back into the first for Wilson would be intriguing.  All depends on the cost.  Lots of great talent to be had if we stay put.  Hurney was terrible after the first round, seems Rhule is far better so far, why not let him build quality and depth.

If we had just lost, we wouldn't need to trade the farm.

Cry more, guys.

If the dolphins end up with the Texans pick and it's in the top 5, they'd be the team to trade up with

Tanking worked well for them.

Trading up for Lawrence is out. You'd have to offer an absolutely absurd ransom.

Unless Fields looks a lot better in the playoffs than he did against Indiana and Northwestern, then I'd rather trade the farm for Wilson or Lance.

I’d skip Lance but be fully supportive of moving up for Fields or Wilson. 

[DeAngelo Beason]

I'm not sold on Fields at all.  Lawrence, yes.  I'd trade a testicle to get him on the Panthers because I think we'd almost instantly become a superbowl contender.

[Wes21]

I would only trade the farm for Lawrence.  The rest of the chips I'd just let fall where they may.

Fields is a very good, but not elite QB, and a substantial drop off after Trevor.  Trading up for Fields would be a atrocious idea.
