Anyone Still Think We Shoulda Picked Braylon Edwards Over Ronnie?

No because after a year like he's had and a coaching change coming, he might be on the open market.

No.

Maybe merge this if needed.

 

I never did want that cry baby on the Fin's.

Other WR's that use to play in Cleveland said that from the 1st day Braylon Edwards got there he was a head case and didn't want to work, and wanted to be treated as if he was already a super star in the nfl.

Chambers should of had a few more balls here, but Edwards must be trying to set a record with all his drops.

 

Here's the inevidable backtrack that we all knew was coming also:

Nice attempt at damage control.

 

The worst part is he only has one more year on his deal..............suck it up Edwards.

 

I was just thinking about things like this the other day on the way to work. I was listening to Mike and Mike on Espn radio and Greenburg brought up a similar point. He was talking about how most on air journalist make these proclamations about how on draft day and with FA signings that this guy should have been picked and this guy should have been signed....and the GM is clueless and this guy is a bust. Then a couple of years later..when they are wrong..or had jumped the gun on someone..they NEVER revisit it or take ACCOUNTABILITY for being dead wrong.

The same goes with message boards and print media too. We(myself included) always scream about what we should have done..should have signed..how we know better. AS we are all entitled to our opinions...when we make a mistake..we just move on to the next shoulda..woulda..as do most media and journalists. The GM and coaches deal with it by losing thier jobs.

The example he gave was how Charley Casserly picked Mario Williams over Reggie Bush and was roasted..I mean roasted about the pick. Now a few years later...he seemed to make the right pick. Yet..who really talks about it??? NONE of the SAME people who killed him for what is looking now...as the better pick. They went through the entire first RD of that year and came away with maybe 3 players that were worthy of a RD1 pick.

I guess what I am trying to say is that MOST of the time...not all..the people with their jobs on the line..who are accountable..the ones who have the most information..sometimes should be given the benefit of the doubt that they do have a plan.

 

With the 2nd overall pick that year the top draft prospects were Smith QB,Edwards ,Benson and Brown .The fans were fairly divided among the four choices particularly the last three .

Needless to say we drafted the right guy .I wanted Brown but I was hoping to trade down and then draft Brown .I dont think RBs should be drafted that high but that was a weak draft so it was justifiable IMO

We were lucky because there were indications that Saban wanted to draft Smith but he was already gone.

 

This organization figured out how to screw absolutely everything up the past decade. Even when picking years to suck that correspond with weak draft classes at the top. We did well with Brown considering the others picked.

 

I saw ronnie hit another level last sunday, iam thinking it clicked for him and were gonna see the superstar ronnie brown the rest of the way.

 

You know, I was thinking about the same thing the other day, so I wasted a bunch of time going back in the search here and on a couple of other Dolphins boards to see what I had said in the past and how much stuff I had been wrong about.
I was wrong about two things that I could find: after Ronnie's second year, I was down on him (although I did support drafting him initially), and I was initially down on Chad Pennington coming here.
Everything else I have either been proven right on or the jury is still out.
I should be a sports journalist...I have a better record than most of them.

 

No?

 

Aaron Rodgers was the other guys talked about too

It was a weak draft year and all the experts before the draft were saying that too
