Josh Rosen to the Dolphins is official after they trade their second round spot with the Cardinals - details of trade to come.

The Dolphins now have a new QB for Fins Nation to get tired of after his first mistake and call him a bust and criticize the front office -- as always

Andy Isabella to the Cardinals in the spot the Fins just traded out of -- he would've been a very helpful player to our WR corps -- oh well.

As a fan I am willing to give Rosen a chance.

The Fins also got another 2020 draft pick in a trade with New Orleans. It's a second rounder. The Fins are stockpiling the picks.

The Fins need to focus on the Oline before the season starts. That should be top priority.

I am not mad about what the Fins got in return in this trade as far as pick compensation. But, I would have preferred the Fins would get more immediate return for what they gave up to get Rosen.

Granted, that 5th round pick next season could be of great value -- but, for a rebuilding organization -- a bit more return would've been good.

The Fins must now focus on making good on their remaining picks today and the rest of this draft.

The Fins now have a 3rd,5th,6th and two 7th round picks to fill some of their more immediate needs now.

Now, I guess the question may become:Does Fitzpatrick remain the starter?Does Rosen sit back and learn for another season or so? Or is there an actual competition where he gets the chance to be the unquestioned starter?

I think its a reasonable concern to have with Rosen considering how he reacted to the idea of competition when the Cardinals selected Murray.

I believe the Dolphins also accomplished keeping And Isabella from going to the Pats 2 picks later. As soon as the trade happened, Cards took Isabella at 62 and the Pats traded out of 64.....

On Josh Rosen, a lot of talk about how he is handling the Murray selection by the Cardinals -- not the best of looks for a QB -- less so for a team that is rebuilding and try to recreate a positive culture on and off the field. I think all of us who have followed the sport can understand his frustration - but there are better ways to handle the situation.

The draft is about to start - from this moment until the Fins make their selection, I think that kid needs to get his act together -- or else he just won't be worth the potential investment. His attitude may well change on a new team -- but he is certainly not possessing the most positive of traits in this situation.

How did Rosen handle things poorly in the last 24 hours? He unfollowed the team on social media? Guess he got tired of seeing all their #KardsGetKyler posts. Can’t say I blame him.

Michael Deiter G/C another good value pick . The Fins waited longer than some wanted to address the OL - but at least got good value . A versatile player who can play multiple positions . A physical specimen— though has to work on some technique flaws . Could turn in to the immediate starter you expect at this point in the draft —but will have some things to work on .

More on Rosen , Cardinals will be paying 70% of his remaining currently salary . This is probably the most attractive (for now ) factor in this trade z

Olineman Deiter is a solid pick. He has a lot of experience and versatility from his time at Wisconsin.

I honestly can't complain they ended up with a nice DT, top ten QB and an OG. Also have a 2020 2nd round pick. No brainer as you get a QB look now instead of hoping to hit next year. I think that the teams better than most think but depth will take some time. Losing RT hurts unless they find something the rest of the offseason. I'm pretty happy!

The Fins will be able to get plenty of talent from the next draft. Plus they will have a ton of cap space to sign free agents. The biggest question for this year is who will play the RT spot. I am hoping that they can get quality starts at that position.

The Fins will need to talk to Rosen. I think he's got a lot of potential but it could actually be in his best interest to backup Fitzpatrick until he is ready and the Oline solidifies. There is no need to rush his development.

The Rosen trade was a low risk, high reward decision. He has a chance to prove a lot of people wrong with a good attitude for the Dolphins.

Well, maybe Fins will trade their #1 next back to the Titans next year and get your favorite QB back.

I say let the Stach take the beating at beginning of season and let Rosen learn system. He wasn't good at AZ because he had very little to work with and O line was bad, kinda of what the Fins will have this year. I think he has talent, just needs some other talent around him and get learn the pro game a bit better

Hopefully Fitzpatrick doesn't take too much of a beating. The Pats run a quick passing offense. I think that's what the Fins new coaches will also try to do. Incomplete passes are better than getting leveled. Especially for a team that is rebuilding.

I think Fitzpatrick is the ideal QB to mentor Rosen. He has a very good mentality and he can make plays on the field. Plus, the players seem to rally around him.

Andrew Van Ginkel , LB, Wisconsin - Fins going after Big 10 big boys. Not bad value here for this pick - but I think they could've done better with this one. I say this because I think this kid will be a bit more of a project(with great potential) rather than the immediate-to-potential starter you might expect at this spot.

Isiiah Prince from Ohio State the pick in the 6th round for the Fins - an OL who plays RT primarily.

Nice move by Rosen in that video just shown on NFL network - bounced back from all the SportsHoopla that came out after Murray was selected
