Report: Brandon Marshall traded to the Bears

[nwfisch]

The Bears traded their 3rd round pick they received from Carolina when they traded Greg Olsen.

Greg Olsen or Brandon Marshall?

[f16harm]

Who cares? Marshall is worth more than Boldin, and Miami had more leverage than Arizona had.

to bad he didn't play better than him the past 2 years

Who cares? Marshall is worth more than Boldin, and Miami had more leverage than Arizona had.

...and Miami got more for Marshall, so may I ask,

WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR POINT, AND WHY ARE YOU ARGUING WITH ME?

Are you still saying Miami didn't get enough? I give you multiple comparable trades as a comparison point, you shit on all of them, and call all of the trades "stupid". How good do you think this guy is? You tell me the value.

[Villain]

Honestly, I think it was a fair trade for both teams.

Your trades for comparison fucking suck, because all those teams had no leverage and made shitty deals.

Randy Moss was considered washed-up, Santonio Holmes was facing league suspension. etc

If any comparison is to be made, it should be WHAT MARSHALL COST MIAMI TO GET HIM.

Miami had NO obligaton to trade away Marshall.

If two 3rds is all they can get, they shouldnt have done the deal.

It doesnt matter what his trade value is, they didnt need to trade him.

Miami is worse off having acquired two 3rds and losing the centerpiece of their offense.

Lloyd was coming off leading the NFL in receiving.

Flukey season was flukey.

Come on.

If Marshall is better than those guys, it isnt by much.

Okay.

Whatever.

Bang fucking biscuits!!!!

I cant believe i am even reading that Marshall is comparable to Brandon fucking Lloyd. Only here I would read this shit.

Im out, you guys are nuts.

[Juggernaut]

No...

Scheffler, Marshall and Cutler worked out together every off-season and presumably made love post-workout.

Seems to be true, seems like they were buds.

oh my god oh my god oh my god

Cutler/Forte/Floyd/Marshall

Add Williams to Peppers on the defense.

oh my god please yes please please please god please yes please

This would be the 2nd best thing to EVER happen in sports.. right behind that buzzer beater between Indiana and Kentucky.

Again, for the reading impaired:

Lloyd has more yards, more TD's (by a wide margin), and a much higher YPC than Marshall the last two seasons.

They are very comparable. If Marshall is better, and im not convinced he is with his shitty hands and dumb penalties, then it isnt by much.

You guys are severly overrating Brandon Marshall. He isn't an elite WR or a difference maker. None of the fans of the teams that have gotten rid of him miss him or care that he's gone.

Fair trade for both sides, Miami needs to move on, he didn't live up and it didn't work out. They got good value.

Dolphin fans aren't too happy they traded Marshall which is besides the point.

Marshall provides the Bears something they lacked for a decade-1000 yard receiver.

If Lloyd provided that while in Chicago, I'm sure he'd still be there.

I know Marshall ain't no Issac Bruce, but he's a Pro-Bowl receiver, which makes him elite in my book.

Miami has a new regime, and they obviously don't like him and don't think he should be the centerpiece of their offense.

The bolded statement is incredibly stupid and dense. Miami got the highest value a WR has netted since Marshall was traded the first time. And the reason they couldn't get the same value back, IS BECAUSE HE DID NOT PRODUCE AT THAT LEVEL AND HE ISNT WORTH TWO 2nd ROUNDERS, which is the point i've been making all along. Miami got maximum value for the guy, and in fact, may have over paid to a small degree. It was a good deal for both sides. Nobody is giving up more than that for that player, c'mon.
