Little traded to Dolphins for 7th rounder

[TheSpecialJuan]

Little never got any better he always sucked

slowly but surely, the stink of Hurney is being washed off this team.

Hurney in the 2nd was one of the absolute guarantees that you have in football.

 

He messed up a couple times, but his ability to pick absolute trash between 33 and 68 in each draft was amazing to witness, and made my cry on the regular.

I simply do not understand how he was so terrible in the 2nd, he was worse at that than anything else pertaining to his job...and he was flat ass awful at being an NFL GM.

This discussion needs to be about where the Scott Fitterer statue is going to be erected.

We got something FOR him????

That seventh rounder will do more than Little did here

[Peon Awesome]

Well the writing was on the wall for Little. Not worth the $1.1 million in base salary he was owed. So instead of flat out cutting him, we get a 7th round pick. And even though it's kind of pennies in the grand scheme of the cap, we also save an extra $100,000 on our cap compared to cutting him ($100k of his 2021 salary is guaranteed).

At the same time, I get it from the Dolphins standpoint. They need line help and are probably hoping that Little's pedigree gives him a shot to turn it around in a new environment. And if he doesn't, they can just cut him and only have to pay $100k and the lost 7th round pick. If he even turns into a serviceable swing tackle and starts a game or two due to injury, it's probably worth it for them. Granted, I seriously doubt he'll do that and is more likely to not even make their 53, but it's a low risk proposition for them.

I wonder if this is a further indication Rhule is coming around on Moton/Christensen LT/RT combo...

Cause as much as love this team, going into the season with Cam Erving and Trent Scott as our LT's is absolute malfeasance...

It can't be worse than the Bell/Chandler combo we rolled with in 2014.

This has to be Little’s biggest contribution to the team.

He would've been put on waivers. No idea if any other team would have claimed him.

Teams are desperate for OL.

We are one of those teams.

What's done is done no sense kicking him on his way out he didn't draft himself. I'm thankful we have Chinn and Marshall and hopefully we will keep that streak going now that the former radio host is gone.

Man, one day he's a sure fire roster cut, next day we get SOMETHING out of him.  Amazing...

We didn’t get much

[mrcompletely11]

I would rather keep him then get a 7th.  Depth is depth.  Unless he was going to get cut then yeah great move

[PhillyB]

that is really impressive from the FO

[Move the Panthers to Raleigh]

I guess Rhule and his staff couldn’t coach him up.
