Green Traded to Phins

Well, I'll be damned. Trent Green's a Dolphin. The Sun-Sentinel is reporting that Green has officially been traded for a 2008 fifth-round pick that could become a fourth-rounder if he dominates, which is ... not to be completely cynical here but ... highly unlikely.

That Ol' Carl Peterson. That ol' stubborn curmudgeon got the Phins to yell "Mercy". Kudos, Carl. You ol' sonofagun.

Here we go. We got our potential opening-day starter. Though our "plan" was completely unconventional in that we're...eh...what?... a few days from the second mini-camp?

Our QB depth chart now looks like Green, Lemon and Beck. I would advise John Boy to not get comfortable on the bench. Something tells me he'll see some action whether Green performs well or not. As far as C-Pep, his fate with the Dolphins appears grim. I'm sure we'll be hearing a lot more of him in the next week or so.

OK, back to Green. He's 36. He nearly got his head taken off last year, and now he's running the show for a team that's gone through 10 QBs since Dan the Man (May I add, The Tan) left. Green's working with a revamped line that's been in the rebuilding stages since Moses parted the Red Sea, but this new, young, draft-built core should be the foundation for years to come. Apparently, teammates love the young cats and their work ethics. Granted, this means nothing to Green, who probably won't be around in two years anyway, but, hey, at least we're bringing in some new blood at a position that has desperately needed it.

For Chambers, Green is an obvious upgrade from Harrington, so I would assume he'll get some deep balls this year. Then again, we say this every year. Don't we?

I say, Great. Suit him up, and let's get started. Just keep Greeny from running out of the pocket, Cam.
