Ogunleye for Marty Booker and third
 

I dont have a link or anything, im not sure if there is one yet. They announced it during the game.


Man, poor fins fans, I think this is a bad trade made in desperation and will not benefit them at all.

Yeah it's pretty much official. I think they already gave up this year and are just trying to get some draft picks. They looked horrible tonight. But, at the same time our defense looked great! ;) They only totalled 98 net yards!

Would have thought the 'Skins could have put a better deal for Miami on the table. Booker and a third pick just doesn't seem like alot. Maybe they should have waited it out another week or two for the highest bidder.

they still have to sign him tho, otherwise it doesnt happen

The skinns had no-one to dangle who could benifit the Dolphins right now . All we could offer is draft picks. Also it appears the Bears were offering O-Gun more money than we were prepared to give

They agreed to yerms. That's why the deal was announced as done.

Booker was a pro-bowler... not to shabby WR.

Yeah, oddly enough I'm starting to think the Dolphins have the best two starting WRs in the game. Booker had a bad year last year, but what Bear didn't. I expected big things out of him and Rex Grossman this year!

However I still feel that they should have gone for A Train. Oh well, maybe that GM knows something I don't!

I'm just glad the speculation about O-Gun is officially over and we can move on.

agreed matty, that crap got soo old.

AT first I didnt think this was a good deal, I thought Booker was like 34...he is only 28. before last year he had 100 and 97 catches in 2001 and 2002... they could have done a lot worse than Marty Booker. I also agree that it is nice to be able to put teh O-gun coming here rumors to bed...

best WR duo in the league is not chambers and booker, while solid, not the best. the best id have to say is the Rams, with Bruce and Holt. And what about Darrell Jackson and Koren Robinson?

I think you're right about the Rams and Seahawks. After that I'd probably put Pitt with Ward and Burress, and Cincy with Johnson and Warrick

I think up and coming is Detroit with Rogers and Williams

definitely, they have the potential to be really explosive really soon, if harrington can get them the ball. im still a little skeptical about him

The dolphins didnt want a-train I dont think. hes hasnt been that good in recent years and wouldnt prove to be much of an upgrade. They have that rookie, fred russel, that is aweseome at special teams right now and looks like he'll quickly win the starting hb role as well.

(Sorry...I don't know how to start a new thread, so I'm posting it here.) DE Tony Brackens was released by Jags. I think he would be good pickup for a veteran's minimum wage. I know he's got knee problems, but I think he still could be solid player for our D-Line.

a train has been in the league 3 years. 2 of those years he has over 1,000 yards and a 4 ypc average or better. id say hes an upgrade over minor big time

You'll see a blue button in the upper left "New Thread" click on that

If he's cheap, yeah I suppose Brackens wouldn't hurt. I'm actually not all that concerned from what I've seen of our line so far

do you guys think that with two blockbuster trades within one offseason, we're going to see an increase of player for player (and a pick here or there) trades in the NFL? I think the Portis/Bailey swap kind of woke everyone up to the FA alternative. I don't think it will turn into the NBA, but I can definitely see a trend towards trading.

I've alwasy wondered why there weren't more player for player trades in the NFL. I hope that they do happen more often because it is interesting when they happen. I've always thought that getting a proven player rather than a draft pick would be better for teams anyway.

This year alone we've seen Bailey and a 2 for Portis, Keyshawn for Galloway and Booker and a 3 for Oguneleye. It's exciting when they happen and hope more NFL teams follow suit.

And again, it's little Danny Snyder leading the way. I do think the guy has skills in the FO, so long as he stays out of the coaches' way and listens to his football people. Let's hope he continues to do so!

did you mean learns to do so? cause he was meddling last year... its gotten better each year, but he hasn't gone a full season without stepping on someone's toes yet ;)

After reading this I remember waking up to the Herschal Walker trade for the vikings next 17 years of draft picks, cash, first borns, and some left over meatloaf......

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

I thought the leftover meatloaf in that deal was Herschel... :cheeky-sm

damn the vikings for giving the 'boys a few championships with those pics

That Guy:

When Danny Boy merely steps on other people's toes, it will be a major improvement for him.

He has made his name in the annals of NFL owners/GMs/poobahs by stepping on his own crank. :D
