Swampbilly Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) Kenyan Drake to the Cardinals for a 2020 6th rounder that can become a conditional 5th rounder. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001070751/article/dolphins-trading-rb-kenyan-drake-to-cardinals Edited October 28, 2019 by Swampbilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrubes20 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Seems about right. Drake is a very good complimentary back in this league on a rookie deal, IMO. But he gets much less appealing on any kind of a 2nd contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinSting Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 8 games in a Cardinals uniform then he's off to play somewhere else? Just a strange dealio. Good job, Miami front office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphinmeister Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Most likely was not going to be here next season or make a difference this one so any return is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Nice move by Grier!!! Way to get something for a player that was going to walk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ForTheThumb Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Love what you guys are doing. Would much rather be a Dolphins fan right now than a Redskins, or Bengals. Once team is admitting they need to make changes, stock piling picks, and by passing short-term mediocrity for a potential long-term, sustained benefits. The other franchises embrace mediocrity. #FishTank. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m looking forward to the 2020 draft so much that I might even make the trip to Vegas. Grier has proven that he isn’t bad at drafting players so I expect us to have no surprises with our first 2 picks and to look for players that are currently projected top 15, but fall for sketchy reasons, with our 3rd and 4th picks.

And he's willing to admit that- that's why he's always traded down and added more picks. This is the scary part of the process, they just have to see it through.

Deadeye Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Yeah, Drake was an ok RB. It seems apparent to me that we over-valued him in the draft. He should not have been a third rounder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
