OT: Robert Quinn traded to Dolphins

[Dan H]

No word on compensation.

 

[Dback Jon]

Rams are active...

They tried to get the Chiefs to take him in the Peters trade

Guessing for a 4th or 5th. He has a hefty salary.

Glad to see Quinn gone from the NFC West.

Quinn-to-Dolphins trade details, per source:
Rams get Miami’s 2018 4th and 6th round picks.
Dolphins get Robert Quinn and Los Angeles’s 2018 6th round pick. @nflnetwork @gmfb @NFLonFOX

 

[Dback Jon]

So basically Dolphins get Quinn for a 4th round pick.

Rams the pick and cap room ($11 million/year)

Rams sending DE Robert Quinn and a sixth-round pick to Miami for fourth-round and sixth-round picks. As a result, Los Angeles is expecting to have around $55 million in cap space heading into the 2018 league year.

All 3 picks involved are 2018 picks, per sources. Will be interesting to see if the Rams replace the fourth-round pick dealt in the Marcus Peters trade, which they'd been looking to do.

Only two players have more than 15 strip sacks since 2012: Robert Quinn and his new @MiamiDolphins teammate, Cameron Wake

Great trade for the fish!

So now the Rams have more cap room, but seriously, if you have cap room, you'd be looking for a dominant D player. What favor did they do themselves?

He isn't an ideal fit for Wade's defense. He is getting older. You don't want to have to pay him, an you get something for him.
