From your linked article...

Quote
One of those executives said the Dolphins have indeed fielded offers for its six-time Pro Bowl selection, but might be asking for too much in return for a 33-year-old expected to earn nearly $17 million in the final two years of his contract.

Fielding offers is VERY different from shopping.  We could offer something for Payton Manning, does that mean the Colts are shopping him?

This, IMO is pre-draft fodder, and nothing more.

How much do players actually even care about winning a superbowl?  What does he care if theres 5 more rebuilding phases and they never win shit as long as his paychecks are fat?  

I think we're made to think that all players really care about winning it all, when in reality its possible that only a small minority actually give a crap.

This is the draft we need to stock up on picks.  There is a lot of talent out there.  I am hoping we get a shot at Aqib Talib and/or Malcolm Kelly in Rd. 2.

I don't think I agree with this.  When you have a perennial pro-bowl guy nearing the end of his career, the one thing they WANT is a ring.  Just ask Dan Marino.

Did you ever actually PLAY sports?  These guys are competitors at the top of their game... not care about winning?  Not a chance.

Easy there Ochizon. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Jason Taylor to Jacksonville for their second and fourth round pick.

I'd love this, and if I had to lay odds at this point, I'd say Jax is the favorite. I'd settle for a straight 2nd rounder though.

I am a little skittish on Lito Sheppard, mainly because he's already 27 years old, and has missed 14 games over the last 3 seasons. If we are "really" going all out to get younger, I want draft picks or players under 25 in a deal for JT. I tend to agree with RhodeIsland that this is the draft to have as many picks as possible.

Yes but it was a hobby, not a profession/career.  And I was a kid.  Not 30 something.

We'll see if this happens tomorrow, or if it's just a silly rumor. But if it's real, I think it would be a good deal for both teams. The dolphins would get a first round player, and the Jags would get the pass rusher they need to move to the next level.

I'd pull the trigger on this deal as well...... although if they can keep him around for now, and then trade him in October for a 2009 first rounder, I would be happy with that as well.

Haven't heard anything, but check out the Fins draft thread for a trade that NFL Network just reported.
