Welcome Jake Long!

Welcome Jake Long..wouldve prefered Chris but what do i know

 

That's that. Grats Jake, you're now a Dolphin!

I might have my misgivings about the pick, but for today I'll be happy.

 

Ricky: Yes, let me hit my celebration stash. This sticky right here, this for Jake Long!



*phone rings*

Ricky: *inhales slowly* Hello?

Agent: Ricky, this is your agent. Just reminding you of your drug test later this afternoon.

Ricky:

 

Seeing Jake in Dolphins gear reminds me of when Luke Skywalker convinced his father to kill the emperor in Star Wars. Except in this case Ted Ginn is Luke, and Michigan is the emperor. Welcome to the good side of the force Jake!!!

 

Wanny, Saban, Cameron, Sparano, and Parcells all in unison, "YOU IDIOT!!"

 

And Jake was there to catch him

 

Sparano, "Ok nuckleheads, here's the frickin the plan I just came up with. #1, you clear up some space over in this here area for #2. #9, you get open and run like a freakin madman. Beck, you get him the ball and **** like that."

Beck, "Why can't I be called by my draft position?"

Sparano, "Because you weren't a top 10 pick. Now pull up your underoos and do what I told ya, before I bring Josh in here. Is this guy for real?"

 

I would have been happy with several players at number one, but I am really glad the Dolphins made the Offensive Line a #1 priority and not just an after thought. I noticed some media types are already prdicting Miami will take a QB with the 32nd pick.

 

4-20-08 Ozzie Newsome: Dolphins not picking Jake Long

 

Im extremely pleased with this pick. Hes gonna be the key in our line. Now the only question is ... do we draft a G or a RT?

This is rather intriguing to me-Long/Carey/Satele/Smiley/?? Depends really I think who is available where I guess.

 

Haha yeah I saw that too. He said he knew Bill very well and knew that he wouldn't pick Jake.






Nice job knowing your peers Ozzie.

 

Haha....I SERIOUSLY doubt it unless Dan Marino or Johnny Unitas are still on the board...

 

2b really needs to be a defender, not a QB. Curtis Lofton, Groves/Avril, Avion Cason, someone. 2b we could possibly see a surprise or a "reach" but we will see.

 

The Dolphins sent key offensive staffers to work out Chad Henne in Michigan on March 25 (a day after a Dolphins contingent met with Matt Ryan) and have told at least two people they like Henne and don't see a huge difference between Henne and Ryan. The Dolphins have made no contact with Delaware's Joe Flacco or his agent since interviewing Flacco at February's NFL Combine. One person in contact with the Dolphins said they've implied they aren't high on him. A representative for Brohm spoke to the Dolphins about scheduling a private workout and meeting, but Miami never did it.

i respect the hell out of you for saying that. lets hope more of us take that same approach

 

i dont know..you were positive UCLA would lose to Xavier..

 

never said we talked to him...I wouldve preferred Chris.

 

i would love to see groves at 32

 

We should have a moment of silence for our poor friend Adamprez, he might have to delete his sig now. He represented Matt Ryan valiantly, and well, poor guy, a moment . . . . . . That's enough, now lets GLOAT!

Seriously though, well not very, but I am soooooo happy we signed Jake, it all starts up front and we finally have a FO that gets it. Our OL can become NASTY now, Ronnie, Ricky and LoBook must be ecstatic! I know I am!

 

When an Ohio State fan is rooting for a Michigan player, either hell froze over or that Michigan player's going to be one heck of a player for his future pro team.

 

hopefully more than Fantasy Football

 

how do you think i felt last year? i am a gators fan watching ted ginn return a kick off for a td in the championship game when i found out ginns foot was hurt i was happy and was hoping he wouldnt comeback in the game

and when the fins drafted him i was worrying his foot wouldnt be healed by training camp

 

Good call
