If I was a betting man, I would say the pick is Jake Locker

We need a RB and Oline fixes before a QB.

 

the website has nothing to do with Jeff Ireland, Stephen Ross or Tony Sparano. They're the ones who make the call on draft day.

 

I would say it's WAY too early to know as to who Miami wants. There's going to be a lot of smoke and misinformation being thrown out there for the next few months.

 

Definitely this..... We talk to a QB at the Senior Bowl and he is the pick. Wow!

 

Miami dolphins did the interview hence the graphic and it just says jake locker quaterback. lol come on now.

 

Well then.....ill go buy my jersey....since its set in stone

 

Better than scam newton

 

Cool story bro.

 

We do? Oh yeah, because that worked out well when we took Ronnie instead of a QB. And when we took Jake Long instead of Matt Ryan. Nothing against Ronnie or Jake, by any means. But a team isn't fixed until it finds a QB. You can't win without a QB. All the other pieces of an NFL team right down to the defense work better when you have a real QB. That's step 1. Not step 13. If we keep trying to get the other stuff right first, we'll never have a QB.

 

i think the pick is chris long

 

What? No more cornfed lineman?

 

ahhhh. good times, good times

 

Reassuring to know that state secrets are kept safe from everyone but the graphics department.

 

Vernon Gholston

 

Gabe Carimi, then Sparano's plan to retire and open a Italian Buffet will be complete.

 

Jets waive him I'd have in for a workout as soon as he cleared Waivers.

Aaron Maybin as well.

 

i disagree. i think if we had matt ryan and didn't have jake long, matt ryan would be injured and worthless to us. marino had richmond webb.

 

vernon carey wasnt that bad of a LOT

 

Once, while I was in high school, I talked with Don Shula.

He never picked me for QB though.

 

How old are you 12?Richmond webb was drafted in 1990.

 

for the record, Vernon Carey was never a good LT .... ever .....

 

really? I thought he played at a good level for one year, trying to recall which one it was now.

 

2007, he actually did a good job at LT that yr.

 

Which means Webb played with Marino for over half of Marino's career.

 

As adamprez2003 says, Carey graded out quite nicely.

and recent superbowl history is rife with winners who had subpar left tackles.

Keying in on LT is like building Fort Knox with no gold, and an unlocked back door. You've got nothing to protect, and the protection isn't ironclad anyway.

 

Thats a negative. Look where that philosophy has gotten us over the years.

Im not sold on Locker by any means, but Im certainly not against taking him with pick 15.

 

Adam, Myself, and some guy named Monstblitz tried to stress this idea a couple of years ago when everyone wanted one of the Longs and we wanted Matty Ice.

 

Actually, its Chris Long who started the whole cornfed lineman thing.

I cant take credit for it, despite the fact I more or less adopted it as my own. But, Chris Long was the first person refered to on these sites as "cornfed" by the person who dubbed the phrase.

Its in what is still my all time favorite post. Pure comedy gold. It was another of many by one of the handful of us who urged the FO to select Matt Ryan. The line was....................... "Great. We drafted another cornfed linebacker. Super Bowl here we come!!!! Get real."

Of course, thats where the "get real" phrase I use for my series of "Get Real" posts comes from too.

 

Never too early, although I've never actually gotten to wear my #13 Huron jersey

 

If Jake Locker is still available in round 7 I say we take a chance on him!

 

Respectfully disagree. How quickly we forget a lot of people figured the Falcons to be in even worse shape than we were going into the 2008 season. Amazing what a talented rookie QB did for their problems. They found a way to make it work because Matt Ryan had the talent to make it work. The same way Chad Pennington worked wonders for our team. It's all about the QB. People keep suggesting a QB is only a worthy investment for a team that is already good. That's crap. A good QB makes the team. It's not the other way around.

 

how little credit you give to Michael Turner. Or, ya know, the best TE of all time in Tony Gonzalez. Oh and Roddy White rising to an elite level that he never showed before.

Matt Ryan has had some help.


(im being sarcastic. He had a lot)

you put Matt ryan on this team in 2008, with Ted Ginn and Camarillo as the starting wrs, Justin Peele as the TE and the oft-injury Ronnie Brown and he flounders big time.

 

I swear one would think Matt Ryan is lighting up the NFL.

 

don't forget slippery soap

 

As much as I respect Mike Nolan, if Rex Ryan couldn't get anything out of the guy what makes you think there's anything there for us to get out of him?

 

They have him miscast as a speed rushing DE/OLB, he is a SOLB imho.

Jake Locker=Tim Rosenbach Jr.

 

a lot of what?

 

Cleavage?

That's the only answer I can come up with after reading your post for some strange reason.....
