Sadly, it has become something that I now almost expect: a story about Tyreek Hill that is not a positive one. If the most recent incident were an isolated one, especially with the police stating that no law was broken, it would be something that could be easily shrugged off. I also suspect that if it were a rare occurrence for Hill, then the NFL would not have requested the 911 tapes to review them. The rumors of Hill being traded away would still have been one of the top national Miami Dolphins stories if not for the very confusing story of Jalen Ramsey and the front office agreeing to a trade. It’s seriously the most Dolphins thing to have this happen with one of their top players at a position that was already in desperate need of another player to fill a hole.
So, with all the negative buzz around Tyreek Hill, I asked the following question last week:
If the team were to trade Tyreek Hill, no matter your take on whether it should or should not happen, what would be a return that you would either be happy with or at least be able to live with as a fan?

USMCFinzFreak, having been a fan for as long as I have been alive, feels much like most of us who have supported the team through many decades of disappointment.
I’m at the point in my fandom life (since 1970) that after many decades of mediocrity following the glory years, I’ve reached a point in my life where I don’t expect much from this organization. Getting excited about high profile player signings or being let down by letting good players go (Csonka, Kiik, Warfield to WFL was my biggest disappointment), has gotten old, like me. Gone are my up and down emotions concerning player this or player that. Now I just hop on and strap in the roller-coaster ride and let it take me up, down, sideways, and upside down, without me thinking about it or getting emotional. I’ll still bleed aqua and orange until my permanent dirt-nap, but I won’t die stressing about any player coming or going. Fins Up!!
holland182.0 ideally wants a 3rd but would take a nice haul from 7-11.
Ideally, I’d like to get a third round pick. Not that a third round pick would even come close to matching the production of Hill. But if a team calls and offers up a 12 pack of Mountain Dew and 3 bags of Flaming Hot Cheetos, I am not necessarily saying no.
SuperG! makes a good point, but this is also why X is not on the team now, even though he would sign for peanuts, and why no one else has taken a chance on a guy who was previously very productive.
I know that eventually, some other Phins player will be in the news for something foolish,...
