Maxwell cleared by Dolphins staff and ready to roll!

From one of his agents it seems

Sounds like the 8/13 swap is still on

Now they need to trade that 8th pick and move the farg back.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

Exactly my thought. There's really nobody who will be available at 5-10 that really excites me and they have so many holes to fill.

QuoteDolphins acquire Byron Maxwell, Kiko Alonso and the 13th overall pick of the NFL draft; Eagles acquire No. 8 overall pick

Dolphins: C-
Eagles: B+

Jumping from No. 13 to No. 8 in the first round sounds like a more meaningful improvement than it's likely to be in reality. Chase Stuart's empirical draft value model suggests that that five-pick leap is roughly equivalent to the 140th pick in a typical draft. In other words, this move amounts to a selection at the top of the fifth round. That's not going to shift the needle dramatically for Philadelphia's draft capital, although it helps, given that the Eagles are down a second-rounder this year from the Sam Bradford trade.

It's shocking, though, that the Eagles were able to get anything in a swap for Maxwell's onerous contract. Philly eats $4.8 million in dead money on its 2016 cap, but the Eagles will save $8.5 million on their 2016 cap and have the dead money off of their cap for 2017 and beyond. The Dolphins will likely restructure Maxwell's $8.5 million base salary as a signing bonus to create more cap space and sign more free agents -- as is their wont -- but there's still little upside on this deal. Maxwell was erratic at best in his first year outside of the Seattle cocoon, and at $10 million per year going forward, he'll need to play like a No. 1 cornerback to justify his salary, even with the rising tide of cornerback contracts.

The Dolphins may strangely get more out of Alonso, who will likely move back to play middle linebacker in a 4-3 after getting lost in Philly's 3-4 look. With one year remaining on Alonso's rookie deal, he offers the best chance of generating surplus value in this deal for Miami.

Bad:  The last time a player was picked at #8 and made the Pro Bowl was in 2006 (Donte Whitner, Buffalo).

Good:  From 2001 thru 2006, every player picked at #8 made at least one Pro Bowl.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or what but that is some weird shtein right there.

Hargreaves (might go to JAX, should be available) or Stanley (who I think is gone by 6).  Highly unlikely they take Zeke Elliott but that's another option if they still need a RB.  Also like Jack but there's bigger holes and the team seems to be set there with Hicks and Kendricks

If Baltimore doesn't take Stanely they'll probably take Treadwell, I'd be happy with either player.

PhillyPhreak54

Mackensie Alexander
Myles Jack

No top 10 pick on a RB

And none of those bum QBs either

Trade back and get that second

Maybe hope Jalen Ramsey is there

really hoping for Treadwell...id lean towards him right now as the pick seeing what they have addressed thus far in FA....really they are now in a position to take best player available

im scared to death of them taking zeke...i will lose my mind if they take a back in the top ten

no chance but hes the one player id trade up for...easily the best player in this draft
