Welcome to the Dolphins Chad Henne!

Hmmm wonder if we'll be seeing Manningham and or Hart in a 'Phins uni as well...:shifty:

With the first pick in the 3rd round the Fins pick Dan Connor LB

I hope so. :yes:

Not gonna lie, I was very depressed when we picked Henne. I was in a thread with In_Flames, Bran and a few others, we were all pretty bummed about this pick considering Connor was still on the board. Now, this pick is starting to grow on me more and more. I dont really know what to say because I want Beck to succeed really bad as I am a big fan of him and I think he has all the tools to be successful but whatever happens in that QB competition, I am behind it.

EDIT: Did anyone read the comments under that video? One person said "Please don't come to the Ravens because u r gonna be a bust" and one replied with "Chad couldn't carry Troy's jockstrap".

:lol:

That's a distinct possibility - I was screaming for Connor at 57 so that we could field trades offers for Henne at the top of the 3rd and fill out our LB corps, as well as pick up a WR or DB before all the good ones were gone. I still hope we get Trae Williams at 115 in addition to whoever we pick up in the third :D

IF we don't trade down I hope you're right. I just have a feeling we trade down, should be a few suitors looking for their guy at the opening of day two. I hope we can trade down, get another pick or two, or three . . . can I get greedy here? :lol:

I want Kendall Langford!

Nice video. Just steer clear of a Henne video from last years Ohio State game:up:

actually i wasnt bummed that we got henne i just thought we should have picked up connor and then drafted henne with the first pick of day 2

i hope we get connor tomorrow something tells me he wont be it i think it will be either a corner or a guard

i think justin king or jeremy zuttah maybe the next pick zuttah has played both guard postitions and also has experience at tackle

I know I said we were bummed taking him CONSIDERING Connor was still there.

You guys think Bill is even looking at Connor after bringing in Ayodele?

Did Henne play in those? NO. Stay on topic please:tongue2:

Yeah we will likely bring in another 'backer. You never have enough in the 34.

Well they are Fins now I guess. I just hate all the Buckeyes that keep going to our rivals

my bad

yeah connor reminds me of zach and remember zach was a fifth round draft pick he was thought to be undersized also

I dont know about Henne. Hes a 4 year starter at a big school, thats impressive. Hes a big physical tough kid that can take some hits. Hes got the second best arm in the draft just behind Flaccos cannon. But .... but ... but .... Hes innacurate, hes not mobile, and he gets rattled under pressure. He typically doesnt raise his game in big situations. I dunno, those are some pretty big negatives to me. What do I think? I think the Phins saw lots and lots of Michigan tape while watching Jake Long, and got to liking Henne. Hopefully that turns out to be a good thing. Both guys DO have lots and lots of tape because they played so much, hopefully what BP and Jeff and Tony saw will translate into success.
At least they held off at 32. Merling is gonna be a beast for us, great pick imo. That "sports hernia" was a laughable injury. To think the Jags could have had him instead of blowing most of their picks on Derrick Harvey is amusing.

What do I look for on day 2? At the top of the draft day 2 we sit pretty, and I really think we are moving down. There are LOTS of solid players left who can make an impact, so load up on those picks!
I look for JT to be traded for lower round stuff this year, and some higher round stuff next year.
I look for more "meat and potatoes" guys like Long and Merling over skill guys like WR. I think OL/DL/LB/CB will be addressed.
I look to a great conclusion to this draft!

not much but henne was alright against florida in the capitol one bowl i believe.....and he was senior bowl mvp. And if he doesnt work out, we got beck or mcnown.....i like a competition bring out the best in all the qbs on the roster.

Besides maybe it'll give henne something to prove dropping so low in the draft, he even seemed down in the dumps getting interviewed after the pick.....hopefully it lights a fire and he kicks ass.

I love the Merling pick! I was pumped he slid down to 32.....i wouldve liked to see groves and get flowers or a wr at 32.....but im happy all the same!

Cant wait for training camp!!!!!! :up::hi5:

cant wait for training camp also to see these people

david lee can work with chad henne i think he can turn henne into a good qb remember the phins will be a run first team so its not like henne will be throwing 50 times a game

i think henne will be the starting qb sometime next year

not comparing them at all....but with us being a run first team....he can be like our big ben....and not have to worry about winning the game for us.....just dont LOSE it.

20 attempts a game.....and pound the rock with ronnie/ricky.....henne can excell imo
