It's not a matter of Surtain not being worth a 2. It's a matter of Miami being a motivated seller. We still could have had him for at least what I said (or involving a swap of 3rds) if not for the rumors of The Raiders or the Donks getting interested. I said it in another thread, and I stand by it. Our AFC West opponents drove up the price for us by bluffing us. I bet they are loving it.
