Miami.com blurb; Surtain/KC trade talks intensified

Bootlegged · 03-16-2005, 08:08 AM

CHATTER

• Conversations with Kansas City have intensified regarding a trade for Dolphins cornerback Patrick Surtain, but the Chiefs have reservations about meeting his request for a large signing bonus. Miami's Nick Saban has indicated he's not opposed to keeping Surtain.

Nothing new, but this was in today's edition. Hopefully something to it.

Yeah, I hope this is true.

If we could lock up Surtain and then get Adams and Hall, I think we'd be in VERY good shape.

I think that if KC yields a third round compensatory pick for losing Tait last year, that this deal is as good as done.

That's what I'd like to see come of it. If we can bump it down to a third rounder, it's a no brainer.

I'm a little bit worried about Saban though. He may be trying too hard to play hardball, in an effort to establish himself as more than a 1st year head coach.

I know this has probably been asked a million times.. but when will we know what pick we get for Tait?

Can a team trade compensatory picks?

" but the Chiefs have reservations about meeting his request for a large signing bonus"

when will CP figure out that #1 CBs are expensive?

you don't get them for cheap..for cheap you scrubs like Herndon...

I think then the chiefs give up the second and keep their 3, I don't think you can trade those picks.

Sounds like CP and DV might think Law is too big of a risk.

If the front office has the stones to pull this off, I'm going to start dusting off the bandwagain. That's a big "IF" though.......

I don't think we get a compensatory pick... you ONLY get a compensatory pick if you lose more than you sign... I'm not sure which of these guys were FAs, but we did sign Bober and Dalton (I know Welbourne was a trade).

Long story short, I think we signed more FAs than we lost. And if that's the case, we wouldn't get a compensatory pick.

Tait was not a trade. He was a restricted free agent whom the Bears signd to a ridiculous offer sheet we weren't willing to match.

I think I read some where that it will be announced next week. Don't have a link, just recall reading it somewhere.

Sorry, I misspoke, I meant to say Welbourne (mixed up my John's). I'll edit.
