Now that the team is winning, I can see jeri getting in uber optimistic "we're only one player away"-gambler mode where he believes he's the guy to find the last piece to win it all with visions of being able to pound his chest afterwards for his football brilliance dancing in his head. If that happens, expect Dallas to overpay for someone that likely does little to nothing to improve this years team and likely pisses away draft picks and cap room in the process.
Jerry is a clown, but in this instance I'd support him making that move because if they get the RIGHT player, it could definitely have a major impact. I don't want to trade away premium picks for jags or just above jag players, but getting a Cam Jordan type DE would be a huge addition. I do think getting a good DE could be the difference between just making the playoffs and being dangerous to making a serious postseason run.
I think there's a few other guys we may have moved. I'd have to do the research.
True to both.
1. We trade for a pass rusher.
2. Escobar, McFadden, and/or Dunbar traded. Maybe Sanchez as well.
He's coming here. I guarantee it. :greenballoon:Mario Williams, 6'6", 292, age 31
The Dolphins, going nowhere fast, actually have 3 pass-rushing ends we could consider in a trade:
Cameron Wake, 6'3", 258, age 34
2016 cap hit $7M
under contract thru 2017
Pros - Damn good pass rusher, he's also a prick
Cons - Age, big salary ($3M of his 2017 contract is guaranteed)
Mario Williams, 6'6", 292, age 31
2016 cap hit - $4.485M
under contract thru 2017
Pros - Can be a dominant player
Cons - Age, can be up and down, $8.485M cap hit next year
Dion Jordan, 6'6", 260, age 26
2016 cap hit - $600k
under contract thru 2017
Pros - Young, cheap
Cons - He's on like Strike 4 of the NFL drug program
All 3 have risks, but I'd pull the trigger on one of them (depending on Miami's trade demands). Cameron Wake would definitely have a Charles Haley type feel to him. Each of them would be a 2-year investment, but with Williams or Jordan, we could walk away after this year with no cap consequences, if they didn't work out.
we should be accumulating picks, not pissing them away on a lost cause. this team is not one decent pass rusher away from the promised land.
