This will be a good trade for both teams.

BTW Since Gordon will be the featured RB in Miami I scooped him up in FF. :D

Even better, the transactions list shows that Miami picked Jamar Martin, who, much to my sadness and chagrine, was dropped by the Cowboys a few days ago, to block for him!

I've said this many times here and elsewhere in personal conversation, that this guy is a beast of a blocker. He lives up to his billing as the best blocking fullback in the '02 draft, but apparently Darian Barnes outperformed him on special teams, so Tuna opted to keep him instead of Martin, though Martin is admittedly the superior blocker. Seriously... YOU could gain yardage against NFL defenses running behind this guy!

I've been meaning to ask you about this. He's a local kid so obviously I thought he was the real deal but was curious what you thought about him.
