Trade Achane?

Outside of a few guys like Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen ... I do agree.

Someone offers their first, second, and third round pick in 2026, 2027 and 2028 and they are gone.  Everyone is tradeable, just a matter of price.

Everything is for sale it is just a matter of price.

Billionaire asks his secretary for ten million dollars would you go to Vagas with me for the weekend.  She says yes.  He then asks her if she would give him a blow job for $25 and she responds, "No, what kind of women do you think I am"  And he responds, "we have already established what kind of women you are, now we are just haggling over the price."

This is the kind of logic that got Luka Doncic traded to the Lakers, but somehow worse.
What do you think you can do with those nine picks... win 3 Super Bowls in 5 years?  Make 7 straight AFC Championships?

There are some players that you would have to be a fool to trade, and Patrick Mahomes is one of them.

It's also the same logic that got Herschel Walker traded to the Vikings.

That would only be true if you believed Herschel Walker and Patrick Mahomes are equivalent players.

Anyone in his final year should be extended or traded.  You don't have the money to extend him.

They don't have the cap space right now, but after June 1st they'll have the cap space because of Chubb. I expect he'll be extended after June 1st, unless he's traded before that. I do agree with Dave that Achane especially doesn't have the typical RB shelf life. He doesn't take a ton of hard hits, typically getting out of bounds or something before taking a hit. That coupled with the fact that I think the run game this year is going to be split between him and Willis, I think the Dolphins feel that he still has a lot of tread left on the tires and he's a huge impact to both the run game and the pass game. I think the front office considers him a bigger value to Willis than draft picks would be. Achane and Willis are going to be the offensive players that bridge the gap from where we are to where we want to be and hopefully beyond that.

They have quite a few draft picks to sign.  And there is also the question of if Achane wants a long term deal with the Dolphins without them making him a deal he can't refuse.  He might not be willing to extend and prefer to be able to pick a team in FA that gives him a better shot at a ring.
