The Phinsider Trading down



Has anybody ever thought of the chance that if Andrew luck did come out to the draft and we had the 1st overall pick of   trading down.Just think of the idea we can get so much value cause some teams are going to be going crazy to land Andrew Luck maybe like  seattle.

We can possibly pick up an extra 2nd and 3rd round pick at the least but I'm sure we can get a lot more.We can draft a big name tackle like the guy out of usc  to replace Colombo on the right side and in the 2nd round go out and get a big name tightend like the one out of Clemson and also a guard.Not only well we have the best offensive line in the NFL to protect chad Henne he well have so many weapons to work with so with that we should have no problems putting points on the board.I still have faith in Chad in the few games he played i seen him mature so much and he became a way better football player and not just that a leader as well some players just need more time then others.In week 1 he was going head to head with tom but it just got over shadowed cause we lost and tom broke a record. With the right peaces around chad and in the right system i fell the guy right now can be a top 10 QB in the NFL and with time a top 5,But dumping him right now is just going to bite the dolphins in the ass in the future.

The Phinsider Dolphins draft board


With the upcoming draft just weeks away Theres many directions that the dolphins  can go.I believe the first player we should take a look at is auburn's quarterback cam newton,Most likely he well be off the board but there's a chance he slips cause of the type of quarterback he is.If he's available at 15 we have to waist no time and choose him that's just to much talent to let go and it well also bring competition at the quarterback position that we need and add a game changer on are offense. wide receiver is not a big need this year but if we have a chance to pick up A.J.Green from Georgia or Julio jones from Alabama 
 and one of them is still on the board at 15 the dolphins have to go after one of those game changing receivers.Just imagine one of them lined up next to brandon marshall next year that well make any quarterback look good and theres a chance one of them can be available cause wide receiver's tend to always slip in the draft.With my next selection a lot of people might call me crazy for going after another defensive end,  But i think if a guy like Daquan bowers thats slipping cause of injury problems and his work ethic is available at 15 we pick him up.Your looking at a guy that talent wise you can compare to mario williams from the texans you add him on this young and firing defense next to Kendall  langford on the D- line and  its lights out for the running backs on the other team.The only issue would be trying to find a team to trade Phillip Merling i think his time to prove himself on this team is about over.All those players i just mentioned most likely they'll be off the board when we choose but a guy we have a good chance of picking up is Robert Quinn from north carolina.He's a player that got top 10 talent and is a monster pass-rusher lined up next to wake on the other side and Dansby,Crowder, and Misi on the inside in my eyes is the best linebacking group in the NFL  hands down.If all those guys are gone then we try to look for a way to trade down in the 1st round to get more draft picks that we seriously need.I would like to trade somewhere around the mid 20's in that spot we can still pick up some good value. A couple of players to take a look at is another pass rusher Aldon smith DE/OLB from Missouri a top 15 talent that might be available and in the NFL you can never have enough players going after the quarterback.If he's not available then we go for the Heisman winning running back from Alabama Mark Ingram a great value that late in the 1st round and a huge need with rickey and ronnie hitting the free agency this year.By trading down theres no guarantee those 2 players i just mentioned will still be on the board but if there not then we improve are much needed offensive line.So we pick up the best guard in the draft Mike Pouncey from the Gators a solid pick thats a  guarantee to start from day 1 and help boost up are weak o-line.So in my eyes thats the way are draft scenario should be looking like let me know what you  miami dolphin fans think.

The Phinsider What the dolphins should do

Well as we can see are dolphins are doen very good,And i believe its only goen to get better......Not just cuz im a fan,But by just looken at the easy schedule that they got ahead of them....The main thing they need to concentrate on is not getting big headed and bein humble out there......The way everything is goen and with the easy scedule i can realy see 8  to 10 wins this season.....But if we want to make it atleast to the wildcard,I say we need  10 wins,The way the bills and patriots are goen and we cant forget about the jets,Its goen to be a very hard division were facing........

The Phinsider I realy do want the dolphins to win

I realy do want the dolphins to win this game,But in reality we all now whats gonna happen,KNow we now that are offensive line is gonna struggle cuz they have a bigger challenge comen up and there so young.....So thats alot of presure on pennington,But i Think hes gona be alright with no mistakes,I believe that are recivers are gonna be lost once again,Cuz they have a bigger challenge also....I do think that are backs are gonna do good this game......I say this game well score a good 10 points....Then on defense i believe that well have pressure but not to many sacks just  incomplete passes,I fell that the d coach doesnt want to have to many players on the blits and leave the corners on a one on one island out there,Cuz we now what happens there......I say we lose by a good touchdown in this game...............Final score 10-17,Both teams have good running games,But the dolphins lose by given up big plays to the cardinals wideouts,And penalties kills ous in this game,We give up about 100 yards on that alone...............

The Phinsider I love the dolphins But

Do we realy think,With the young talent up front were gonna have pressure.....Sorry not just yet its not the preseason anymore and are starters areant playing against backups anymore.....On top of that i know that kurt warner is gonna have time to throw the ball and with the two wide recivers that they have you can pretty much say that were toast......Its not that i dont believe in the dolphins,But have you looked at are secondary latley these guys cant guard high schoolers.....The only one that can do a lil somethan is will allen,But against a top reciver hes no match and bell,Is only good for butten a lick on people and for the rest of the guys they just Flat out suck.......I cant wait tell we finally play the patriots and randy moss does what he did to ous last year.....Then tony will take back that of what he said,That he likes are secondary,I believe that the guy said that cuz he didnt have time to get that far on the team..........But im sure by next season well see a brand new secondary out there......

The Phinsider What this team realy needs

Well looken at this game,I realy do think that we beat are selfs more than the jets beat us....Just on the stupid penaltys that we need to stop with.....Then On that touch down brett threw in the air that was suppose to be picked off.......The only reason that i think we had got that close to beat the jets was mostly cuz of pennington and his smart decisions......Looken how the game went I realy do think this line is gonna get better wit time,Cuz we do have talent on it.........The qb position is finaly set i like the chad brothers,Are running game is gonna get better when the o-line does....IM kinda dissapointed with ginn,The guy didnt realy do much,I believe hes just gonna be better in the future to be are 2nd reciver and playing speacil teams,When we realy fine a true reciver on the outside.....Are tightends was probley the best postion on this team,They were looken sharp out there and played better than the receviers...But were we realy need help is in are seconday,Like ive been sayen those guys just simply suck,There worken so hard to stop the short throws they give up the long passes,Except will allen that guy realy played his heart out there but hes getten older and needs a break,N bell did ok but you just never know when hes gonna go down on a injury........I realy hope next year we can get some playmakers on this defense.........

The Phinsider How can bill pass on a guy like kevin smith

What i dont understand,Is that bill loves big strong backs and thats what kevin smith is......Smith is from are backyard only about 3 hours away from miami...The guy played his collage ball at ucf in orlando...He also was the ncaa leading rusher and in the begging last yearmock draft had the guy goen in the late 1st round.....We got 2 running backs as late picks and there was just so many times we could of pick the guy and so many teams past on him for awaile....And looks who gets him the damn lions....So i believe that was are biggest mistake of the draft,Not getten this guy,Hes gonna be the biggest steal out the draft this year...Ill say this much by the end of his carrer i say this guy does better dan darren mcfadden in oakland............

The Phinsider A little bit about jason taylor

Im kinda glad that we let the guy go and wats great we got a 2nd rounder for the guy...Know jt  didnt look like himself last night and what we need to understand as great as a player is on defense age and injurys catch up to you...If you dont believe me look at joey porter....JT only has about 2 years left in the nfl,Hes not realy into it anymore cuz he wants to be all hollywood...The guy just came from a serious injury and the way he plays i know its not gonna be the last one.....I know everybody would agree with me that hes on the downside of his carrer,I wish the best for the guy,But im glad in a business point,Thats we got what we wanted for the guy and hes outa miami.........

The Phinsider To all the real dolphin fans out there

Now this only applys to the real loyal fans and the people that know bout football,Not just the fans that like the dolphins cuz they live in south florida....I want nobody to get offended off this message.....now in my last post and all the other post that i have im always talken bout how this teams secondary just sucks john and josh need to get out of this team already,The reason i say this is cuz i look at this team more like a coach would then a fan....Like we just won 3 of the 4 last games that we played,N a fans eye thats great and thats all we worry about,But in a coaches eye the preseason is more of scouting the players and the team to see how they do....If you asked coach sprano, what did he think of the preseason,What do you think hes gonna say,This is a great team we won most of are games and thats all that matters....Or that are secondary needs to step up for the regular season,Are RB need to keep it up,Are recivers need to make more plays and also be more cosistant outside of ginn.......Why do you believe that the patriots do good year in and year out,Cuz there coach bill is never satisfyed tell they get to the superbowl and hes always pushen them harder and harder every year,No mater even if they win every game in the regular season......And i believe that is what ous as loyal dolphin fans need to do untill we have that superbowl ring,Not give up on are team and keep pushen them all day and everyday.....................

The Phinsider Lets see what happens

Now from looken at the preseason,I get a little bit nervous cuz i Know we did good and all,But if you had to say we had are starters on the field alot more than any other team....Also if you look at the saint game they didnt even have shockey or bress or reggie bush in the game,So that should raise some eyebrows cuz we barely won that game......Another thing that i have noticed is yea were hell of good putten pressure on the qb mostly cuz we blitz so much and if we dont get the qb he has pressure,But are db just suck thay havent realy done anything,I fell like this team is only playing with the 7 players up front......We need to do something with that secondary cuz when we play the patriots this year 2 times and are secondary is doen the same thing were gonna be in some big trouble.......I have to say tho since the 1st game are penalties have gone done and were playing alot more smarter,Are 2 qb and rb partners are doing realy good and i love it....But outside of them the runningbacks are doing great and i know there gonna be fine,But are qbs just suck beck and josh need to be out this DAMN team already...........THIS GOES OUT TO ALL THEM BECK LOVERS ON THE SITE,I TOLD YOU THE GUY SUCKS,HES TO OLD AND HE WAS A WAIST OF A DRAFT PICK,BUT NOBODY WANTED TO BELIEVE ME FOR SME REASON....NOW LOOK WITH YOUR OWN DAMN EYES AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK KNOW.............

The Phinsider What i fell miami is gonna focus on next year

Well we all know that this team is becoming better and smater now with bill parcells in town...Lets predict that joey misses games and doesnt have a good season and are defense struggels a bit with the rookies and the secondary that needs to improve....Lets say that are offense does good with are 2 backs and pennington doesnt make much mistakes,I also fell that in this league you start with the qb and we have that settled now...Then it goes to are o and d-line,We realy upgraded that ....Knowen bill that loves his linebackers,Miami that just lost zach and jt and looks like joey is on his way,and then with this secondary that needs alot of help......I fell that all of are focus next year should be on are defense,First with the linebackers...2 outside linebackers that are treats is a must for next year....Then a safty and a corner that we can count on and can make big plays for this secondary,Then a replacement for jason fergusion......We need alot of work still but were on are way there almost......................

The Phinsider Lets play smart for next year....

well this team kinda of nows already that next year were gonna have picks in the top 15 or higher most likely.....So what i fell this team should do is trade and keep traden picks for next year so we can have a bunch of rookies on this team next year...So we dont have to waist money on them 1st rounders that you realy neva know how they are gonna turn out...Atleats with free agents you have a idea,N any ways this team can find diamond in the 2nd and 3rd rounds with out a problem to.......So come on dolphins lets play it smart and save money,Waist it only when its nessary....Anyways how you look at it, are offense is most like set,All we might need is a new guard and a reciver if things dont go out right...But on defense is where all of are concern should be next year,And thats what i love cuz i now that this team is exallent on that..........

The Phinsider i fell like this is a make it or brake it year for ronnie

Well we now ronnie and it is hard to let a guy like that go cuz we believe so much in the guy,,But we need to rember that this a business and we need to do whateva it takes for are team to be better,Do we atleast agree in that much....Well how i see it running backs have a set back when they hit the age of  30,Even the greates so i know that even applys on brown....So i believe brown had alll the chances in the world to become big in be in pro bowls but smethan is always up to tell you the truth....N how i see it now brown is a good back not great ok guys....He needs to prove it first,but all the money we do pay this guy he should be great....Now if these season ronnie doesnt make it to the pro bowl,Or has another set back on  injury,well have to give this guy a serious pay cut,N i know hes not gonna like that,So thats gonna mean a trade...N if we can get a first round for the guy i dont see why not,But it has to be a high one,Or eatha extra pics......So we can keep up graden are line  and adding big name players...So at the end of it all, any running back well be able to find a hole on this team.........

The Phinsider quick hit on ronnie brown

Well i just wanted to now,I know ous dolphin phans realy do love ronnie brown and all but lets talk about the truth.....Now this guy was drafted 3rd overall now if im not mistaken,And in every year he seems like hes gonna have a big year but somethan always ends up happening and the guy dont even make it to the probowl....Well know that the guy just came off a serious injury, and they do say once a player has a injury like this hes had they dont come back the same.....Also for some reason i believe that this year there might be a chance that rickey willams does become the better running back and might win that number one spot......Also with all the money we do pay ronnie,And say for some reason he has a average season,Or rickey does better this year,or hes gets hurt or whateva......Do you believe that the dolphins well trade him....? or what what well you want to happen to ronnie...What do you belive well be the right price to let the guy go.....?

The Phinsider Just gonna speak a little bit on my mind

Now i fell that bill parcells and this organization are going the right way and also with the right attitute and that is no lie to nobody......But ifell there is some choices that are realy gonna be qustioable in the future........                                                             1). Letting go or lorenzo booker was just a horrible desion i believe,On top of that he was cheap and we spent a 2nd round pick on the guy,We trade him for a 3rd rounder...He was one of the players that realy stood out to me last year,His speed moves quickness and hands He could of been used for alot of different things on this team.....But bill let him go cuz he wasnt big and strong enough to be on our team....Well ill tell you this there ant gonna be no plyer that you can get in the 3rd round thats better then this guy.................                                                         2). Getting wilford,all the guy realy has is size,his hands are bad he just isnt a good reciver,Thats why jaguars let the guy go and of course we pick him....The only reason the guy is on our team is cause he fits bills style of play,Is a big strong reciver....We were better of not grtting him and keeping lorenzo booker and with the 2 draft picks we waisted on running backs use that to pick up to recivers for are team.........                                                                             3).The players that we had a chance to get in the free agency and we just let them slipe by,Like allen fanca and damin woody,that the jets spent big money to get....I like the fact that we upgrade the o and d-line alot,But i just fell that it wasnt just enough,We shoulda atleast get another big name at the guard spot that we are realy weak at,Instaed of spending of spending money and space on guys like wilford to be on are team................................

The Phinsider Whats going on with the waist of money

NOw what im trying to say with that is Everybody agress that were trying to be a younger football team and of course a better one to.........So lets take a good look at next year,We have about 9 draft choices for next years draft,,,On top of that all the good free agents that are gonna be available next year....So why are we goona pay chad all this money to be on are team for 2 years,Thats not hellping are future and thats also making him a top 3 most expensive player on the dolphins roster.....So next year when we have all these good draft picks and there also good free agenst available for ous to choice and we ahve no money to make anythean happen,Were gonna be wondering why.......So bill has to take a second a think,Dont waist money now,Cuz the season started and theres realy no quality players to choice from at this time..........................

The Phinsider Did anybody see colt brennan

This guy played yesterday,Can i tell you from looking at this rookie he is gonna be the best qb coming out of this draft.....He got a nice arm with accuracy and he also is realy mobile,The guy hit 9-10 and 2 touchdowns.......He also had a near perfect passer rating.......I think if this guy keeps playing the way that he did he will be the starter come the first game of the season,I wish we have picked a little earlyer so we have got this guy instead of the rookie we got.................Hope for the best................

The Phinsider Did anybody here of john lynch

Well i was watchen tv,And i heard that john lynch should be released by the broncos by friday.....So would that be a good idea,Cuz how we now bell is always injured and allen is most likely a bust and at best a back up in this league....We realy need help wit are db,But lynch is realy old so he doesnt have to long now in this league.....By the time were contenders lynch well most likely be retired and well be looking for a replacement,But for the mean time he can fill a row and we can fix up in the draft this upcoming year............
