Comments on: Vontae Davis trade a better deal than Colts expected http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/01/06/vontae-davis-trade-a-better-deal-than-colts-expected/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sat, 18 May 2013 23:56:09 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: sukittrebek http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/01/06/vontae-davis-trade-a-better-deal-than-colts-expected/#comment-2238929 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 18:54:55 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1639921#comment-2238929 I think it ended up working great for Miami. He had lost his starting job to Richard Marshall, and wasn’t playing well (or with consistent effort). As others have said most of the year he was disappointing. He was going to be a free agent, and no way Miami would have resigned him and Smith, who has proven to be a better player. So they traded their third best corner, who they weren’t going to resign anyways, for a second round pick. Sound good for Miami to me.

Amazing that they didn’t fire the Dolphins staff for yet another weak year especially when they are going out of their way to make highly embarrassing trades.

Um, incorrect again. Irelands late round picks seem better than the early ones. Safety Jones was a 5th and he is in the top 3 safetys now. There are others.

However, his 2nd rounders have left a lot to be desired.

He has his moments…. but I rather have a 2nd round pick for another more balanced/mature player.

Death, taxes & Ireland making a bad trade are the only guarantees in life. The Bears made out pretty well with Marshall also.

The first he got burned on but Schaub under threw Johnson and Davis had an easy pick. He was repeatedly beaten through that game. His being player of the week is a joke.

Yep.
