Dolphins trying to trade TE McMichael

The most prolific tight end in Dolphins history is on the trading block. A source said today that the Dolphins are shopping Randy McMichael, who is the franchise's all-time leader in catches and receiving yards ...

[Josh Howard]

Great move. Below average hands (uses his body all the time), poor route runner and an overall bad citizen. Bring in Eric Johnson- total opposite of McMichael.

[Let me guess]

Here we go again with the Fins.....get rid of the good players, then raise ticket prices. Just wondering if I'll see a good fins team in this lifetime. 1984 since our last Super Bowl appearance, and we got killed in that showing. How much longer can you expect us to wait? costing me a fortune each year and the product keeps getting worse and worse. If this was a normal business, you would have been out of business by now.

Im' watching the first moves that this new coaching staff is doing. McMichael might have a problem playing everydown or is a locker room distraction. As far as athletic ability he is very talented and fits into most offenses in the NFL. Let's see what the big picture in these first few days of free agrncy brings. A lot of average to above aaverage guys are getting HUGE contracts right now. Lets not over pay and blow our lump sum on a few guys that can easily be filled later or in the draft.

[Stephen]

Crappy blocker too. I wonder if they can get a 3rd round pick after last season.

[slim]

call 1-800 ny jets..well will take him..avg hands?? evertime i see this guy he catching the ball. and hard to tackle.

[sick of it]

It's all Bushe's fault, send them to Iraq, Anna died ?...sorry wrong story

[Dan]

Yeah, he had a good early career, but he was worthless the past two seasons.

[Mike]

Randy go to the patriots please we need you.

[Ed Schmitt]

Hope they know what they're doing.

[crazyman]

TRADE HIM

WE NEED A CHANGE ..........

[Ignignokt]

The Dolphins have needs that a trade could help with.
He was a great player for us , but it's business.

[chase]

HEY SUN-SENTINEL, THAT PHOTO YOU ARE SHOWING OF RANDY MAKES HIM LOOK LIKE HE IS IN RAFORD, GREAT STUFF LOL LOL LOL

[Pee Wee Herman]

... I say we let him go...

[Ken in San Diego]

Wow, the housecleaning continues.

Randy rarely plays up to his abilities. He runs lousy routes, can't or won't block, blames everybody else and won't shoulder responsibility. IOW, he doesn't earn his keep for his spectacular salary.

That said, under the right system, he could thrive. I know he didn't have the right coaching in the past two seasons.

But with this housecleaning, it sures seems like the Fins won't be a contender for several more years as the rebuilding begins.(It should have happened two years ago.)

[Joe Ballin]

Bet he is also the all time leader in dropped passes and tips to the other team for ints! Go to the jets or patriots, we will take one of their draft choices AND capitalize on his mistakes four times a year...put chambers on the trade block too!

[FastJoe]

Not to worry...I'm pretty sure he wants to be traded anyway. He doesn't like to block and thats exactly what Cam Cameron needs in a tight-end. Plus the new tight-end coach is Mike Mularky(or how ever you spell it) and they don't get along at all. I like McMichael, but he has been terrible the last couple of seasons. He advertises his routes all the time.

[Charlie]

What! How can they do this. This is unjust to one of the best players on the dolphins last year. I hope that he doesnt get traded. I was looking forward to seeing him helping us on our playoff drive

[DLFANS]

I feel bad for his wife.
Knowing what RM is like, he might end up at Waffle House with his wife and start beating the crap out of her again.

Damn gald that he's on the block.

[phinito]

it all makes no differance as long as we are without a decent qb

[Steelerfreak]

What are the Dolphins thinking? It seems to be a sinking ship in Miami. The Dolphins have a great owner that cares about the city, the fans and the team but someone needs to realize that big name players win games and sell tickets!
