According to Jason LaCanfora of CBSSports.com, the Dolphins are “gauging trade value” for 2013 first-round pick Dion Jordan.

Wow...that would be a shock to me... First, we may be 'lacking' along the DL when the season starts, compared to the past few years. Second, we have many needs. DL is one of them. Third, what happens with Starks and Soliai have alot to do with how feasible this would be for us...
But, who knows...this organization keeps doing things that don't make sense to me anyway, why stop now, just because Ireland is gone.... -

If it is true though... Why not switch to a 3-4 or a hybrid of the two? Put Jordan on the field more

The team has had an ENTIRE training camp, regular season and now offseason to asses him.
If the coaching staff and new GM are strongly leaning towards declaring him a bust due to work ethic or other factors, wouldn't it be smart to trade him now?
Or do you guys screaming bloody murder prefer he go the way of Vernon Gholston and we get nothing in return?
Or, even better, this leak is being reported to put him on notice that working hard isn't cutting it and that he needs to enter overdrive mode to utilize his talents. -
Hickey already paying dividends lol. :pity:
What a freaking joke. The future is going to be quite bumpy...ASOT likes this. -
You are right on. Excellent observation. That even assumes this report is correct. But keep playing the pity party, it serves you well.
After all, his 1 sack last year has him at Lawrence Taylor levels.Ohio Fanatic likes this. -

Only the Dolphins could be this stupid. In fact, its too stupid to be fake.

Jordan has already gone afoul of the League's substance abuse policies. Was the crowning statement of the illustrious career of the former GM.

But what has this coaching staff shown as far as realizing and utilizing talent over the current regime?
They haven't bolstered my faith in their ability in those regards.
Arguably the worst offensive line the Dolphins ever had, and we had how many former-OL coaches? -

while crazy...i kind of get it.
Had we known Vernon would step up like we did, we wouldn't have taken Jordan IMO. IF we can get another 1st this season...i get the logic.
Remember, hickey only has a 2 year contract. the man doesn't necessarily care about life after Cameron Wake, because he might not be here for it. His logic is probably simply protecting tannehill and getting this team to the playoffs. Jordans not actually essential to that.
i'll be bummed...but i get. -

Wait...isnt it me..or is this really...a non issue. Why wouldnt they see what they could get for him. Maybe someone loves the guy and is willing to over pay. He showed flashes in his first season of being a stud. Hes an asset...and a valuable one. Seems logical to see what you might get

hypothetical...someone offers a 1st rounder between 10-25 range...we then have two picks in the first with the opportunity to walk away with any combination of Zach Martin (T), Clinton-Dix (S), Louis Nix (DT), Mike Evans (WR), or probably ANY of the top Gaurds...do you take it?

Dolphins are also trying to trade Cam Wake and Mike Wallace according to La Canfora.

He's a pot-head.

As for the topic at hand, need I remind you all that the source of the news is someone who tends to make PFT, another questionable news source, look like Jeff Darlington? -
Jordan is in phase 1 of the NFL substance abuse program. And there IS something wrong with it, it does not become illegal simply when you get caught.
