The Miami Dolphins have acquired tight end Anthony Fasano and linebacker Akin Ayodele from the Cowboys for a 4th round pick in tomorrow’s NFL Draft.  Fasano will battle David Martin for the starting TE job on the Dolphins.  Fasano played in 16 games last season for the Cowboys and he caught 14 passes for 143 yards (10.2 avg) with 1 TD grab.  Fasano has now played in 32 games in his NFL career and he has caught 28 passes for 269 yards (9.6 avg) with 1 TD grab.  Ayodele played in all 16 games for the Cowboys last season and he made 57 tackles and defensed 4 passes.  Ayodele has now played in 96 games in his NFL career and he has made 484 tackles, has 9.5 sacks, has defensed 14 passes and he has intercepted 5 passes.  Ayodele will battle Reggie Torbor and Channing Crowder for the right to start at inside linebacker.  This was a good trade for the Dolphins who get two proven players for a 4th round pick.
