Apparently Tunsil is in the Clowney trade.......that's why the revolt talk is happening.

Though I will concede that it's hard to convince myself to put him in the top 3rd given how impressed I've been by Wilson and how game Lee has looked so far. Lee's willingness in the run has been a revelation and it could be huge. But Wilson's never been a starter, Lee's track record is spotty at best and Hitchens has come into the season in a key role 1 time in his career and spit the bit pretty hard. It's just awfully ballsy to say "hey man, we have Hitchens, Lee and Wilson as our starters - what do we need a guy who's popped off 110+ tackles/season like clockwork and shown good coverage chops for?" That's a fair amount of hubris for a team who's linebackers are short on known quantities, and that's if you're putting it diplomatically. They might just suck. |

That would be a damn nice swap for Houston and I'm not real excited about them getting better. I don't think they get the better pure player in that swap, but they get a cheap, young OT for a team that BADLY needs an OT at any price. It's just a really good 'needs' deal for them. |

Would definitely take Kiko.
Smart, fast, diagnoses quickly, good blitzer, good coverage, good striker, forces turnovers, AFC East experience/Patriots Intel. |

Player wise, sure it makes sense I suppose, but from a financial and planning standpoint, why? Theoretically if you're the Dolphins, you could have both for just money. |

Things probably or usually don't workout like you always want so some of these dudes won't work out. So with that in mind, you'd be hard pressed to find better depth than Kiko so if he's cut, go for it. I just dunno that you'd get him to sign for a depth spot, but it'd be worth a shot. I've actually been impressed with Wilson and Lee myself and....gulp....Ragland hasn't really looked out of place in that SLB spot as much as I thought. He was a pretty good blitzer at Bama so maybe use him in that spot moreso. They don't really have a LB setup that by himself works ideally, but the mishmash of parts, collectively, you can see if they play it out right would work pretty nicely. |

But you really wouldn't think so. Especially when they need...everything. I mean if the Texans are open for business here, get Coutee and Scharping back. I mean surely Scharping has to be part of it, right? They can't move Tunsil - who will protect next years new QB - and not get at the very least a high ceiling young player back with him. It isn't as though they're dealing from weakness here - they don't HAVE to make this move. But if you can get Clowney (present value of roughly a 2nd) Coutee (probably a 3rd) Scharping (3rd) and maybe Omenihu (5th) then you're in the ballpark for an ascending LT. And even that's maybe a bit on the light side. Butif you're the Texans you still do it. Scharping isn't necessary if you have Tunsil and Coutee is your 3rd WR. Clowney doesn't want to play for you and Omenihu is a guy who maybe develops into Okafor in 2 years. If that's what you give up to get a young LT - pft, DONE. I would think the Dolphins could do even better than that. |
