Finsmob Unleashed 
I tink that we may try to parlay to of those picks into a fourth today. I kind of hope that we dont thought so we can have that glut of picks in the 5th. Funny thought: we have four 5th rounders, and we don’t take Varga.
*think
Going from the 5th to the 4th is tough, I figured out last night it takes like 3 of our 5ths to get to the 4th, so no trading up I like having 4 5ths. Zach Thomas, Jelani Jenkins, and Reshad Jones come to mind, these are guys that usually need a redshirt yr, but could be really good after that.
Having 4 4ths doesn’t get back our 3rd, but I’ll take it.
I hope that we can grab DJ Humphries at 114. I have a feeling he may be gone by then. Tre Jackson or Ifo would do as well.
My wish list for the 5th in no particular order:
S Adrian Amos (Penn St.)
ILB Mike Hull (Penn St.)
ILB Ramik Wilson (Georgia)
G Sean Hickey (Syracuse)
C Shaq Mason (Georgia Tech)
TE Nich O’leary (FSU)
WR Darren Waller (GT)

Hulk angrya
Hulk so angry he can’t spell
I thought the Hulk’s Italian was aspilling outta.
We had a chance to draft a player who can compete to start at OG or a player who can compete to start at ILB. Instead we get a developmental DT with a bad motor who can rotate in with Suh, Mitchell, Fede and Francis.
Hulk angry!
We have to play 6 games a year against DTs such as Dareus, Wikerson, Richardson, Leonard Williams and now Malcom Brown and our biggest weakness is interior OL.
Hulk angry!
Hulk now have to go take kids to Six Flags. Hulk no see draft today. Might be better that way.
How many times a year do you take your kids to six flags, ffs? Lol
Not watching the draft today, watching Derby, having friends and family over, will likely end up eating and drinking too much.. But at least I’ll be home!
The draft is from 12-4. Plenty of time for the Derby!
First race is like 10:30am.. It’s an all day event!
Randy Gregory falls, falls, falls… right to the Cowboys at No. 60.
Throughout the 2014 season, Nebraska pass rusher Randy Gregory was a mainstay in the top 10 of first round mock drafts. But numerous failed drug tests, including one at the 2015 Scouting Combine, sabotaged his draft stock, dropping him out of the first round. But at some point, the talent is worth the risk and for the Dallas Cowboys, that was at pick No. 60 in the second round. In fact, Gregory was a prospect that was in play for Dallas in the first round at pick No. 27. So while he will need a support system in Dallas, it could end up being an enormous steal.
—————————————
This explains how I feel about La’el, at some point the talent is worth the risk.
Maybe in the 5th, but his agent said that he was going to pull him if he wasn’t drafted in the 2nd or 3rd. I think it was a bluff.
Or maybe his camp wants him to be an UDFA, so when he’s cleared he goes to the highest bidder.

#Dolphins GM Dennis Hickey explains why Miami selected Jordan Phillips in the 2nd round #NFLDRAFT http://fw.to/AcyCvqN
————————–
Our Def. coaches love Phillips.
Boy Omar is really trying to shit on that pick though, which to me almost confins it was a good one.
We got the Omar poopy face
There is no greater endorsement
Got to thinking about all this 5ths last night and we could go from 1 4 and 4 5’s to 3 4’s but I think I’d rather have the extra picks at this point. I’m wondering if we select a QB especially if petty is still around. Even if we have no intentions of him ever being our guy we could groom him have a solid backup and then trade him once he has some NFL training and experience ie Flynn and Mallett.
Again I’m not proposing this its just food for thought
I hate drafting QBs at this pt in RTs career. I think it’s insane to farm them and keep them around only to trade them for a future pick later. They say a 4th this yr is worth a 3rd next yr, so a QB you draft in the 4th that you keep for 3 yrs should be worth a 1st. Does anyone see us getting a first in 3 yrs for any QB left in this draft?
No I don’t. Petty is toutedcas most prototypical QB of the class but I do think at best we would get a 4th back for him if we went that route
You guys with la’el lol. Look if he is cleared that’s great. I don’t at all believe that the police at this point think he us fully exonerated or the wouldn’t have made him come back. I promise you the BRPD love their LSU players and thus would nor have gone down like that unless the needed him back to observe him when they question him. Paternity test can be done at certified labs in the Chicago area. His statement could have been made via lawyer and faxed to the Brod, he also could have answered any questions with a lawyer present from Chicago. The only real thing they couldn’t do with him in Chicago is put their hands on him ie keep him close so as not to have him be where they can’t take immediate custody of him if the get to that point or because they want to see how he reacts to questioning. This points to not bing sure he is innocent and feeling like he may have been involved.
If this us the case do you want to disgrace the team by drafting a guy even in the 5th that’s a murderer. I don’t call this fan or societal perception i call this a dumb ass move. Once ehoberated maybe we try for him but until that time, like everyone else, stay the fuck away.
He isn’t the end all be all for our team, he’s a good player in a sea full of good players who would cause more damage if we famvle and lose than good if we gamble and win.
I don’t get the obsession with this kid.
George Carlin has a piece on using your own words, but you take that to a new level.
If that’s in reference to typos I’ll have to admit I’m on my phone right now… It has a mind if its own. If its in reference to profanities I apologize I use them like seasoning for sentences not to express anger more just putting emphasis on the last syllable lol. We disagree on Collins i m trying to make my point much as you continue to try to make yours
Typing on the phone is rough, especially on a large post. I just thought it was funny how these strange words kept popping up 😛
We might go all UCF with those 4 – 5th s
S Clayton Geathers
LB Terrance Plummer
WR Ranall Hill
G Torrian Wilson
But I thought the point was to try to get the BEST players… 😛
Jets have done really well this draft and I hate saying that. Leonard Williams is a beast. Devin smith has scary potential ( thank god Geno is still throwing to him) and Maudlin is a really solid pass rusher hate to say it I think we are getting out whataburgered
Smith is a one trick pony
He is not a Samurai
(piggy spits on the geound)
I dunno man he didn’t run many route at Ohio state but he showed he could at senior bowl. He is elite in some areas hence the potential statement. As long as Geno is throwing to him they could have taken Cooper and I would have been overly concerned

Today is a good day to bring in some guys that can compete for jobs on defense
Ifo, Heeney, Wilson, Gaines, Harris, Amos – we can find some defensive starters today
Heard your boy Ifo is scaring teams off because the insurance policy he took out in case of injury is paying him more not to play, not being a 1st round pick, versus what he’d make on his rookie deal.
That is a bit crazy
But nothing surprised me anymore
Right now I don’t think he dropped
I kind had him pegged in the 4th, albeit of you would have asked me 2 mos ago I would have said he is a 2nd rounder
DBolt
http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft2015/story/_/id/12803823/ifo-ekpre-olomu-oregon-ducks-cornerback-line-collect-3m-insurance-policy-falling-draft
Her we is a link to the story about Ifo and insurance
He’s not getting $ not to play in 2015
He didn’t purchase an ins policy for that
Oregon purchased an ins policy for him
And he collected money once he wasn’t a first round pick
I guess that was incentive to keep him for his senior year?
(Piggy shrugs)
But it doesn’t sound like it affects him playing or not in 2015
Id have to find the tweet from last night, but it definitely said teams were worried because he’d make more from the policy by not playing.
If you find it I will check it out
But right now I have Ifooooooo
As #1 on my hit list
Lol. Started going through last nights tweets and said fuck it……too many to go through😂
Probably why he didn’t nothing to make sure he was a day 1 pick though
I tink that we may try to parlay to of those picks into a fourth today. I kind of hope that we dont thought so we can have that glut of picks in the 5th. Funny thought: we have four 5th rounders,and we don’t take Varga
I don’t think that’s funny at all Brian
I’m not sure there is much in the 4th worth trading up for
But maybe they really like some one
5th round is honestly where the value is this year. Every mock of done had really good talent available in it.
In polishing my conch now in anticipation of Ifo being drafted
DBolt
I did a twitter search on Ifo and everything was about the ins policy I already mentioned
It was an Oregon ins policy
I doubt it affects his pro playing time
Ok. Like I said there was a tweet that said it scared some teams off.
Ultimately if we keep all 5 of our picks
I would Like to see 2 DBs and a LB today
Let’s bring Suh some buddies so we can be the best D in the NFL
TYLER FUCKING VARGA BETTER BE ONE OF THE 4BEST. 5th Rounders!!
Just because you want a good guard who can block the monster DTs in our division doesn’t mean they’re in this draft to start right away. My guess is we don’t have a high grade on them.
And to put a fine point on it
They were NOT in this draft
There is no evidence that Jake Fisher can play anything other than RT
Once Collins was a loss
The whole class of OL took a big hit
IMO a lot of teams reached for less talented OL in the first couple of
Rounds
It wasn’t a strong OL to begin with
And one of the top, if not the very top was off everyone board bc of a freak issue that no one knows how to deal with
This was not the draft for OL
Let’s see If Marpet starts next year before the throwing tomatoes
I bet a lot of the guys taken Thursday and Friday need time
I don’t understand the logic of some people
Let’s not give Turner and Thomas time to develop
Let’s just draft another guy we need to give time to develop and give up in those guys
Ifo reminds me of Reshad Jones, in that he was injured in college and fell to the 5th, now look at him. That’s why I don’t want to trade any picks out of the 5th, when you have multiple picks you can take chances someone will turn out to be great or at least very good.
When we signed two OL a week prior to the draft that may have been a sign we didn’t think the answer was early in the draft for OL once our board was set. Maybe we add one or two in the 4th or 5th rounds and as UDFAs.
I don’t know why no one mentions the OGs we signed before the draft
There was a reason for that
I don’t mind adding 2 OL today
But the well is drying up
So I don’t think we need one instead of a quality player at another position
Well I did mention it. 🙂
I actually really like this pick as far as player value. He’s a gifted big man. I can see where some folks may think we should’ve gone with another position. This suggests that Hickey doesn’t waiver from his board to fill specific needs….at least not with this pick. I hope his back issues are a thing of the past though.
He’s really talented
Probably not an every down guy
But let’s build around Suh
I don’t think the player warrants criticism
But if we go into the season with holes on the OL, that will be the issue
And to the extent, the criticism is valid
“I hate the Phillips pick more today than yesterday, but not as much as tomorrow” …Spiral Staircase
Yeah Randy, Phillips has a lot of athletic ability for a big man at 6-5 330. If we were relying on him to be the main man up front at DT right away then maybe this pick is a bit questionable but he won’t be because he’s behind Suh and Mitchell but he’ll compete with A. Johnson, Francis and others to round out the depth.
I think after 5 months of looking at mock drafts with nothing but WR, LB, OL, the occasional RB, DB and TE we were almost brainwashed to not look at value at other positions. I saw Phillips in the 1st round in some mocks. We got him at #52 so that’s very good value. We also don’t want to get run on like we did late last year and that doesn’t change with just one guy in Suh so we’re looking to get deep up front on the DL. Not sure when that became a bad thing. LOL
It turns out the Devante Parker’s family is smarter than Lebron’s
. I thought the story was that the D collapsed last year because we had no depth to account for injuries at LB and DB .. Now suddenly another lazy fat guy is going to make all the difference? …whatever ..lol
I do to think that’s why the d collapsed
Teams were running right up the guy on us
Phillips directly addresses that problem (as does Suh)
There was also poor Tackling
So I hope we add a LB who can tackle today
I don’t think the secondary play was a factor in the d collapsing last year
But I think we need depth and even competition to start so we should add some DBs today
Piggy … You don’t think that lousy DB’s playing 15 yards off the ball had anything to do with the collapse ..Look at how many third and longs they coughed up in critical moments.
I think that’s scheme
Not talent
If you draft more talented guys they still give that Cushion
I think the scheme could use a change though
Bat, LB and DB did hurt us late in the year but Starks and Odrick also struggled and they’re gone. Wake and Vernon wore down because of how much they had to play because Jordan gave us little and Shelby can only do so much. So we signed Suh, hope for Fede to take the next step, drafted Phillips and hopefully McCain will be what we hoped Jordan would be.
That said, what fans think and what our FO thinks are not always the same. LOL
Piggy, we were playing young DBs and guys off the street late in the year.
But that is depth
And that is what day 3 is for
We should draft 2 DBs today
The criticism of not taking a DB is particularly sore to me
Since I’m the only one here who suggested we should draft Trae Waynes
Seriously guys
Stop bitching
No one else wanted to take a CB in round 1 expect me
Tim .. I guess I’m just not buying that a project DT lacking effort and intensity with a bad back was worth tossing a second round pick on … Call me crazy …lol
Piggy …I agree that scheme is a factor, but Coyle is still here, so I guess we can expect more of the same…
Possibly
But that has nothing to do with the draft
Except to the extent if you think coaching changes may occur in 2016 you should be BPA all the way
And I think we’ve been BPA
Bat, maybe your assumptions about Phillips are a little extreme. LOL
I don’t view him as a project. He has the talent to be dominant. It also tells us that we’re not convinced A. Johnson, Francis and other DTs on the roster are the answer behind Suh and Mitchell. There’s nothing wrong with being stout up front on the DL.
Piggy .. That is sound logic regarding a regime change, I just don’t think Phillips is any good ..I detest guys who don’t give 100% and try to coast by. The Dolphins would not have been any worse off this year without Jordan Phillips ..IMO
I don’t think our defensive scheme was the problem, it was a talent issue when we were hit with a lot of injuries down the stretch. Now we know why we didn’t get much from Jordan. We needed to make changes up front and we did with Suh, now Phillips and we’ll look to Fede and McCain to make that 2nd year jump.
OK … Time for me to get aggravated when we draft two more DL today ..lol … Later …
Oh I forgot, we still have 5 picks left. LOL
We can address a lot of depth needs in the 4th and 5th. If we hit on two of them as in they become a part of our game day roster this year we’re in good shape. But to be realistic we’re closing in on developmental range now.
That said we can’t forget the young players already on the team that we’re expecting improved play from and we have a lot of them.
Right !!!!
Right.. Meeting I agree 100%
Shit.. I give up… Meaning.. WTH
Weird blackson went before fabe wright
Gabe
See there ate still good picks. Trey flowers was a second round prediction before the draft
That’s because a bunch of players who were not thought to have high grades have already been drafted. LOL
LOL @ phindog
Oakland trading
Former second/third round projection
There are a lot of OL still on the board with similar grades. Maybe this is where we felt the cluster of depth was and didn’t want to reach on a class we didn’t have high grades on.
Williams teammate Tyrus Thompson as long as he has his head on straight is a good pick, as is Jarvis Harrison who has same issues
There it is. Buh bye Geno
Winder who else was in for that pick. To move up one someone else wanted a trade with jax to likely take petty
Look at all these OL with similar grades.

Damnit sample gone
Hardy to the Falcons.
That’s scary with Julio white and hardy for a qb like ryan
Yeah and we’re likely done at WR with Landry, Stills, Jennings, Parker and Matthews.
Boo how hoo….I know we weren’t taking him but I wanted hardy here
If they would stop taking so damn many commercial breaks they could keep up today.
Another ucf off the boards sorry son
Colts take Geathers?
A little early for me?
Clemmings gone.
No Feathers for us. He’s a good player.
Geathers
OT for Vikes Cummings
There goes Tre 😦
You wonder why he fell to the 4th.
no
Injury concerns and not as good as previously advertised.
Fuck NFL network they are so far behind now
Gabe wright gone
There goes Arie
Wyo, I was asking why did Tre’ Jackson who I saw as a 1st or 2nd round prospect fell to the 4th.
Oh
I had an idea he was going to fall this far at least
Me too he isn’t that good he was much better 2013 season but last year and senior bowl looked very average
Are we dicking around with a trade again?
There’s our guard. LOL
Jamil Douglas 6-4 304 Arizona State
Harrison and Matias left?
and IFO
Me too he isn’t that good he was much better 2013 season but last year and senior bowl looked very averageharrison, Robinson, Thompson, several others. Like Tim said this is the fat part of the OK talent grading
gaurd from Arizona st
There. There’s your oline now shut the phuck up
And I mean that in the nicest of ways
Douglas it is!
There is your OG with OT experience!
No IFO for the Pigster! 😦
There’s our guard. LOL
Jamil Douglas 6-4 304 Arizona State
He’s an athletic ZBS type.
LMAO @ Son
Ditto! LOL
Watching some tape on him, he’s pulling or getting out in front of a screen in almost every play, he’s very athletic and has a nasty pop at point of contact. Maybe the FO figured they didn’t need a highly rated college Olineman to fit our system, just an athletic guy with a little nasty.
That’s been the book on Benton that he develops later round talent
Yep! He’s got a lot of talent. The negative on him is he doesn’t play up to his weight room strength on the field but the ability is there. 28 reps of 225 and he has huge hands at 10 3/4 and good size arms at 33 3/8 for a guard. He’s considered a LG. He will likely compete with Thomas as I believe we view Turner as a RG.
Douglas is q pretty good pick
Blake bell gone
I’d like to see his pancake stats, because he’s knocking someone on their ass on every play. I don’t know how this guy fell so far. Against SC he’s making them look bad.
I wish they would stop talking to that fat fuck belima
I want Oleary next. Trade up!

So we have 145, 149, 150 and 156. We rule the 5th round. LOL
The round of the Fin!
There goes Wilson! 😦
Fucj Wilson is gone
I don’t think our brain trust is as worried about LB as many fans are. I’ve felt this all along. This also isn’t a very good LB class.
Yeah I liked the idea of adding McKinney outside of that it was kind of depth for me. I thought McKinney could cover Slb and then move to mlb later when misi was up for renegotiations. Depth guy is good and if need be we can get a stud later. I think they were aiming for McKinney but moved into BPA after that was gobe
You always have to move into BPA after gobe. LOL
Damn that guy needs an inside version of his outside voice
Bottom Line
Douglas gets by with adequate length and plus athleticism, but his play demeanor will have to ramp up in order to make it as an NFL guard. Douglas flashes enough potential to excite teams looking for athletic traits, but his lack of functional power will be hard to overlook for others. Douglas could benefit from a glass-chewing mentor in the NFL.
MR. Suh would you go show MR. Douglas what a Pro-Bowl DT can do!
http://www.nfl.com/draft/2015/profiles/jamil-douglas?id=2552339
I read that too and I so often read the same thing about many prospects. The pros and cons are sometimes an oxymoron.
Damn there goes Grant!! 😦
Is prewitt still around?
Mayle gone
Everyone gets their chubby
Hooray!!!
No Ifo 😦
Good
I want him for us!
Does anyone think we’re looking to draft more WRs?
I don’t.
I’d take Waller with 1 of the 5ths
When is he going to play? We already have our 5.
I was thinking we would when we traded back but the we picked a position I didn’t expect we would so maybe not
D
Yes lots of S left

Prewitt is really good hybrid safety type I’d really like to get him with one of our 5ths if he falls that far
Almost all the players I my wish list are still on the board except ramik Wilson
And we have a ton of picks coming up
And the crowd starts chanting Ifo – Ifo – Ifo
Tim waller us a te/wr hybrid we could take him as a seam te
There goes Kwon!
To Small
He’s kinda of like wheeler but a better tackler
I’m not worried about size so much
I just want them to be fundamentally sound
Sometimes Kwon is a bit too aggressive though
Couple decent rbs just came off the board. At this point I’d take artis-payne
After watching his tape I can see why they waited so long to get an Olineman. I’d like to see tape where they show every offensive snap, but I haven’t found it yet.
