    Does the CB position require that little mental aspect of a players game? I like Vontae, but he sure seems dumber than a rock, maybe that's just his immaturity but seems by the time he matures he likely won't still have the physical tools. Because he sure is immature for his age, ala Grandma it seems.

    Trade them for less than we gave up to acquire them? Kidding... I hope?

    Actually Marshall was signed before VD was ever traded from the team. He was suppose to be the third CB and Smith and Davis were suppose to be the starters in 2012. That was until Davis and Philbin just couldn't get along and Davis was traded to the Colts for a second round draft pick.

    So it is really the Dolphins second round pick in the 2013 draft, Jamar Taylor who is the actual player traded for Davis. So right now, based on how Taylor has played or not played this season, the Colts are certainly the BIG winner in the trade at this time. Right now I would take Davis over Taylor and not even think twice about it.

    Replaced? We only had Grimes for one season when we could have Davis for two, I don't care if Grimes played the best season for a CB ever, thats still not good value.

    This is a moot discussion anyway, Ireland burned that bridge.

    What bridge, you think it was Ireland who wanted to trade Davis..?

    If so, this is what is a moot discussion

    I always had the position Vontae was traded due to immaturity not ability. If Grimes is resigned and wants to mentor Vontae I'd do the deal all day long. I just don't think Vontae has grown up yet.

    that is easy… Grimes… for several reasons… Grimes has proven through out his career that he can buck the trend (this case age). Grimes is a football player… Davis is a drunkard that has finally stopped parting… in his contract year… imagine that… The Dolphins didnt trade Davis away fro what he did on the field… they traded him away fro what he did off the field. AND you want to hand that *** clown a huge contract?
