When you try to spell-check "Tannehill" the word "Annihilate" comes up...

Hello from thephinsider.com, the Miami Dolphins blog-site. We just claimed R.J. Stanford off waivers, and I was wondering what you guys think of him. After trading Vontae Davis to the Colts, we need someone to play nickle cornerback, and I dont think Carrol has what it takes. Is R.J. Stanford good enough to succeed at nickle?

Give Naanee a break. He has had one bad game, and everyone is writing him off, even off the 53 when he supposedly had a spot locked up. He's a WR with potential, that I believe can grow along side Ryan Tannehill. Anthony Fasono had an even worse game against Atlanta and no one is writing him off the 53. Naanee has still had a great training camp, and I believe could be a consistent target along with Bess, and hopefully a young WR that has yet to step up and/or Hartline.

When do teams publish 53 man rosters? Name starters? All of that stuff.

Coples scares the crap out of me. Not only is he a high risk potential high reward (even moreso than Tannehill), but in 2010 when he had success he was primarily a DT, then in 2011 he switches over to DE and utterly fails against ACC competition. I would rather pick Andre Branch with the #8 overall pick than Coples, at least he had success at DE against the same competition. (no I'm not serious about Branch at 8, im not stupid) If I were to grade the prospects by ceiling and floor at the DE position this is how it looks. Ingram: Medium floor, high ceiling Coples: Low floor, high ceiling Jones: Low floor, high ceiling Mercilus: Low floor, extremely high ceiling Perry: Medium-high floor, high ceiling Branch: High floor, high ceiling Curry:Low- Medium floor, highish ceiling everyone has their opinion, but dont come crying to me when Coples busts hard, and some of these other guys succeed. Also keep in mind that we could possibly get Branch or Curry in round 2, which makes the floor even higher. All of the guys I listed have "first round grades".

Question. What Miami Dolphin players might be up for trade on draft day, and what value would they bring?

Ryan Tannehill is rated ahead of Coples according to Mike Mayock, just saying. Also he had the 2nd highest QB wonderlic score, 3 points behind Luck. He's rated #21 which isn't that much of a reach at 8.

What if we traded our... maybe 3rd and 4th round pick for John Skelton, the backup QB for the Cardinals. He played very well finishing with a 7-2 record last season, and it looks lime the Cards are too invested in Kolb to give him a fair shot.

hey yall, I want to talk about Ryan Tannehill. Last Year the Aggies had about 50 dropped passes, if you made those drops receptions at a 7 yard average, these would be his overall stats compared to Luck and Griffin. Name Cmp Att Yds Cmp% Ryan Tannehill 377 531 4094 71% Andrew Luck 288 404 3517 71% Robert Griffin III 291 402 4293 73% Now purely on #s which QB is best? Even if Ryan Tannehills #s are 3rd best in some peoples opinions, then is Tannehill that much of a reach at 8?

Hey guys, I just had a thought. What if we were to trade our 8th for the Pats 28th and 31st overall pick. Then we can get Stephen Hill or Kendall Wright at 28 and Perry, Mercilus, or Chandler Jones at 31, and if all those guys are gone then we can just get Coby Fleener at 31, and get Vinny Curry or Andre Branch at 41. After that we can just add O-line depth, maybe get another WR, and maybe get a CB somewhere in there

I am extremely confused. I just looked at the Dolphins depth chart and we have 3 starting LBs (Burnett, Dansby, and Misi), 3 starting caliber DEs (Wake, Merling and Odrick), and 3 starting caliber DTs (Solai, Starks and McDaniel) . So why is everyone saying that one of our biggest needs is an OLB/DE when we already have everything we need for a 4-3 3-4 hybrid. As it stands we are extremely weak at the WR and TE positions which are both huge needs for the WCO. Our defense is already one of the best in the league and our Offense needs alot of work, so someone please explain to me why a DE/OLB is supposed to be picked before a WR and/or TE!

hey guys, just wondering what Daniel Thomas value is, a 2nd? because we picked him in the 2nd last year, if not then a 3rd and a 4th?

what if Ryan Tannehill plays WR for his first year, while learning the coverage of LBs and safties to avoid throwing to them, at the same time it fills a need at WR where we would only need to draft one in the later rounds, its genius!
