(Wedge sits at a piano and sings the scouting report)
Goodbye Lamar Miller
Though I never saw you get many carries
You had the skill to resign elsewhere
While the Dolphins look elsewhere
Now the Dolphins have to look to the draft
who can they find to replace you
Maybe some one else who will only get 3 touches a game
Though I really hope not
And it seems to me that a Utah running back might be a good idea
A guy like Devonate Booker …..hmmm hmmm hmmm
In 2014 Booker had 0ver 1500 yards on the ground
never needing more than 292 carries and averaging more than 5 yards per carry
In 2015 you had a few less carries
and still had over 1200 yards and close to 5 yards per carry again
23 total touchdowns on the last two years
and that includes receiving touchdowns
600 yards receiving and 22 reps on the bench press
we will have to wait until your proday to see you run the 40 .
And I would have liked to draft you
but I’m just a alien fan
a fan who sobs for Lamar Miller
If Devontae Booker was a alien weapon of destruction
he would be a Space Hankerchief, helping us get over Lamar Miller.
Watch his highlights here:
This is actually not a good draft for picking in the top 15. Quite poor in fact IMO. This must make me an egg-spurt or is it a gooroo?
uwant, do you have coconut crabs down under, you have every other crazy creature? LOL
No idea Tim but I have seen a face like busted crab before.LOL
Who are you referring too?
I can’t seem to get the pic to post in here right but I will ask my lad next time he comes over. I don’t know who it is.
Casserly is actually projecting we trade with the eagles again and get our pick back. LOL
http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/mock-drafts/charley-casserly/305662
You think maybe he has it backwards? LOL
Casserly was the only one of many ‘experts’, that correctly mocked Parker to us last year. The other ‘experts’ all had other players.
I think he might have the teams in the wrong order because the picks he has for each team make sense for the opposite team. LOL
Actually, I thought that Philly would wanna take Zeke. I know we could too. So with that intel, then Philly likely wouldn’t want to move back to see Miami get their guy.
Bed time folks 4.30am here.
Up tilting the bottle in the wee hours eh mate?
Lee, I can appreciate your sentiments. But living here in the US, it is very important right now.
I don’t think of all of it as political mumbo jumbo either.
A lot of it to me is a social issue/s, that will being to greatly have an effect on all of our lives, as well as social comments on huge incredible shifts from the norms of our once fair and civilized society.
To me this is more than just who you may like that is running, or what party you’re from, that’s besides the fact of what’s going on before a keen eye!
We are under attack, but sadly most people don’t see it due to the forest being in the way of a few trees. Few dig deep enough to really see what’s going on between the blurred lines.
Anyways sure, back to looking the other way to play along.
Go Phins!
go Tanny!
LOL @ Casserly’s reverse trade
Also I noticed Myles Jack went #10 in that mock
I would be pretty upset if that happened
makes the Eagles trade down look pretty bad
I just listened to the audio
and that is just ridiculous
I would be so mad
No it wouldn’t because we still got two starters who are proven, Jack hasn’t done jack. 🙂

This is the recent bandwagon prediction. I saw someone mocking with us to trade with them to get Elliot, which is going to be a shit, smash burn piss on my TV moment if it happens. I wont care much about a trade up in the case we are set on a guy that really fills a need and they warrant trading up to get but that isnt one of those scenarios. I get a lot are in love with Zeke elliot, but we neither need RB that bad, nor is he worth that.
I also predicted Parker to us btw…so take that for what its worth.
New Poll up
They don’t seem to show up for me. All I see is Polls and nothing is clickable.
there are 2 polls now
Tim you said that before and eventually came up
I think you are slowpolled….lol
It’s still like that so are headless children at work? LOL
tim,
maybe he forgot we made this trade. He says the eagles trade back and get their 2nd back they gave up for bradford. LOL. I think he’s getting too old or something.
LOL, it’s pretty goofy.

Thats because you are a homo and this server is based in NC. They have refused to serve you the poll information.
LOL, but aren’t we all homo sapiens?
Homo’s are homos so why should it be….you cant see the poll that i can see….
LOL @ D with a little Depeche Mode reference
What was that?
The song People are People
I tried listening to them on the way back from Copenhagen last summer, but their new music is shit. Saw them in concert in the ’80s my ex wife’s favorite band.
So I guess I can’t be part of the new poll that no longer works for me. I guess your software is an anti-Applelite. Fuckface!

I had this discussion with Tim a couple weeks ago.
The scouts and analysts always try and say this draft is strong/weak based on numerous things.
It’s tough enough to properly evaluate individual players playing within the team game under a specific scheme and projecting their success from it so going out and projecting what an entire class is going to do is almost impossible.
Take the 2005 draft, considered the worst and by some the worst in 20 years prior (going back to 85 or something). The Dolphins went 1-15 and had the fortunes of picking top 3 in that ‘terrible’ draft. They drafted Ronnie Brown #2 overall. Who else went in that terrible draft? QB Aaron Rodgers #22 overall to GB, WR Roddy White #27 overall to Atlanta, TE Heat Miller at #30 overall, Patriots OL Logan Mankins at #32 overall… Others in RD 1 -> LB Derrick Johnson #15 overall to KC, Panthers LB Thomas Davis #14 overall, OT Jammal Brown who was the Saints SB win team went #13 overall, Chargers LB Shawne Merriman went #12 overall, DE Demarcus Ware went #11 overall to Dallas, CB Carlos Rodgers went #9 overall to Skins, CB Pacman Jones went #6 overall to Tennessee, Braylon Edwards went #3 overall after Ronnie Brown, and of course while dissappointing, Alex Smith went #1 overall but still is in the NFL as a starter.

He’s also the guy that “resigned” from the Texans because of all the heat he took for selecting Mario Williams over Reggie Bush (and Vince Young to those delusional Longhorns fans) with the :). He also hired Gary Kubiak that same year to be HC. Oh but that David Carr selection….that haunted him for a bit.
GDP,
I don’t think the political landscape is drastically different than it was 100+ years ago.
We are living in the era of misinformation driven by endless competition for information available on the internet. It’s no different than in the early 1900s when newspaper era was hitting its peak and in the spirit of competition for customers; many made up stuff to drive sales. It’s open unverified information shoved in our faces with a record number of distribution platforms (TV/Internet etc) that is making you feel this way :).
As Billy Joel wrote in one of his songs:
We didn’t start the fire
It was always burning
Since the world’s been turning
We didn’t start the fire
No we didn’t light it
But we tried to fight it

He wrote Angry Young Man too. LOL
Okay I got the Depeche Mode reference now. Good one, D!
ZOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM Fly by. Read the posts for a few minutes and now have to go. I’m still alive and kicking. NOGTIH ALL

Jared is going to be a baller in the NFL
I’ll just put this in to stir the pot a lil (Randy will smile for sure).
From the article,
I [Peter King] ask Goff about getting sacked. “This past year, I mean I dropped back 500-something times, got sacked like 25, so not too bad. My freshman year I got sacked a lot. It hurt really bad.”
What percent of those sacks were your fault?
“All of them. All. I mean, they’re all avoidable. I probably took 35 my freshman year, maybe one of them wasn’t my fault. I think if you’re a good quarterback and you know what you’re doing, you know what your line is doing, you should be able to avoid most of them.”
Does it frustrate you that avoiding sacks is accredited to the offensive line, rather than the quarterback?
“No.” A quarterback gets enough credit for everything, Goff says. “[The O-line] could use some shine sometimes.”
What QBs really think inside: “except when your pass pro blows chunks and you can’t throw the ball away every fucking time because you’re trying to make a play.”
On 3rd down throwing the ball away early may be worse than a sack, at least with a sack you stayed in the play until the end.
Depends. Even on third down you would be better off taking a shot on your heck down and see if he can make something out of it. You have to remember most plays have a check down, and that guy isnt a read progression he is a “oh shit” outlet. Its not a guarantee he is open but the chances of being picked on a check down is very small, chance of getting a lot of yards on a check down is also very small but its a lot better than taking a sack.
You missed the point D, I was referring to holding onto the ball to see, if something develops, instead of bailing early. With the sack or the throw away you still punt, but holding onto the ball instead of throwing it away gives you a chance. Sure at the last second you can hit the checkdown, but early checkdowns are almost as bad as a sack, when you still have to punt.
D, no check down in empty backfield 3rd and 8 with 3 defenders in the backfield within a second and yeah that did happen on 3rd down way too often. I remember walking away from the TV and not even watching the punt saying we can’t even run our offense if we block like that. But I know, if one of us says that, there must be a rebuttal and examples of when he had time and took the sack and one and one we go. LOL
Catch up later folks. 🙂
There are examples of both…. OL didnt do him favors, he didnt help them, and the mad magazine coaching for dummies article that Lazor based his offensive playbook off of didnt help either of them. Its weird because i get a label of Tanny hater when i dont hate him im just not willing to just say none of it was his fault. There can be truth on both sides of an opinion you know.
And what i had said just above wasn’t directed at Tanny….it was an in general statement about check-down over taking a sack, so why in such a rush to defend when no attack was made?
All of the above happened. RT didn’t do his oline enough favors, Lazor (enough said), the OL didn’t help RT enough… They all must be better.
The empty backfield on third down was always a signal to me it was about to be time for a commercial lol.
LOL, same here. It got so predictable it was laughable.
Al, thanks for trying above…lol
Yes some things are the same as 100 yrs ago, man has always been greedy. The elites always hungry for more money, power, and no regard for screwing the rest of us over.
Yes there was propaganda back then for political gain & to promote war. See William Hearst’s abuses with his publishing companies.
Yes today there is a lot of misinfo & propaganda. See the state controlled media that most sheep follow, like in the old days.
Except nowadays, the technology can be also good and not all bad.
You don’t have to be a giant corporation owned by elitists to put out info.
The trick is, finding the credible info, with referenced sources, vid/audio clips, etc etc.
This technology has helped wake many, & expose many as well.
Back in the early 1900″s as you say, the people didn’t have much any other way to find the truth, or something even close to it.
So NO, it’s not at all like you said that is making me feel this way…LOL
I’m not easily fooled or follow just any narrative that comes down the pike. Can I do much to change things? Not too much, other than try to keep looking for truths and spotting the lies, then passing it on the help inform others who maybe work too much, don’t read much beyond their favorite hobby, or shedding a different light for someone to see beyond the blur that they might have missed.
If we all did that as citizens, and kept networking like that, then maybe that real change that has always seemed so elusive and one sided can & will occur.
It’s worth a try and not a waste a time no more than debating Tannehill, Scooby, or he/she places to take a dump.
So Keanu Neal was invited to the 2016 NFL draft, that means at least some team has him on their big board at a 1st round prospect. Another person a little bit surprisingly invited was Miss State DT/DE Chris Jones. I have heard the a couple teams are really high on him, and they said that minus some off field stuff he would solidly be considered a 1st rounder. I like him as well and would be pretty pleased if we got him. It looked like we really took advantage of Miss States pro day, met with a lot of the participants there from that school i really wouldnt be shocked if we had interest in Redmond, Jones, Beniquez Brown, and likely Prescott as well.
Also saw this today that really made me happy to see.
Deion Jones is going to be drafted a lot earlier than most of us would have liked
Rand Getlin @Rand_Getlin 8h8 hours ago
I’m told #UCLA’s versatile pass catching TE Thomas Duarte is visiting the #Dolphins today. Could be a monster in Gase’s scheme.
He might as well be called a WR.
Rand Getlin @Rand_Getlin Apr 11
I’m told #UCLA WR/KR Devin Fuller still has six visits and/or workouts left, the #Dolphins, #Packers and #Chargers among them.
Rand Getlin @Rand_Getlin Apr 9
I’m told Western Michigan WR Daniel Braverman — who wasn’t invited to the Combine — has already visited the #Vikings, #Saints & #Dolphins.
———————————————————————
Def a lot of interest towards WR’s by our team, all across the board from 1st round to 7th round projected round guys.
D, we do need to likely replace the spot of Matthews. I doubt that comes in an early draft pick, but ya never know.
I see some good developmental guys in the back end of the draft, but this year’s class is weak for top flight type WR’s, so why draft one early…IMO.
I do think we need to also concentrate on TE’s at some point. Gase uses them, and we really are short there with quality. Glad to see TE’s are visiting too.
Would be crazy if Neal was a first round pick
but I don’t see it happening
Wedge will puff up his chest with galactic pride if it happens
I can’t see him going in the 1st round to anybody. He’s been as low as a 6-7th round projection early on with his speed concerns and recognitions.
Well D posted that he was invited to the draft which usually indicates that some one likes him a lot
We all know Tanny took some sacks where he should have gotten rid of the ball quicker but so do a lot of QBs. He’s not doing anything a lot of other QBs don’t do. The problem is he faces a lot more pressure than most QBs. I don’t see a lot of other teams with their interior OL standing around with defenders running past them free into the backfield. That is what really has to change based on what I see. If we can upgrade the pass pro and Gase can put together some better blocking schemes I think we’ll see a big difference on offense overall. I really believe that.
So I’ve said my peace on the issue. 🙂
Goff said that earlier to endear himself to a higher pick if possible. That’s predraft BS hype…IMO.
“Oh, what a humble team player. We must have him” lol
Yeah it wasn’t anything but that.
This is just sickening…
Whats that, 8 strike out in 10 batters
I hang my head in shame 😦
And Jose Sucks!
Syndergaard is a really good young power pitcher. You still have a chance because the Mets bats are cold.
7
I lost track, 7 is correct
Syndergaard is Bad Ass but losing it now
C’MON JOSE
GO MARLEELNS 🙂
Not a bad 1st 3 rounds
I could live with that draft. But rather Artie Burns in the 2nd. Fuller has a lot of talent, but there are some issues. I’d only think about him in the 3rd, maybe later.
If it were burns or fuller
I would take burns
But fuller ain’t so bad
Bonds: A-Rod won’t beat HR record before retiring
_______
What home run record is that you’re talking about Barry? The juiced one?
That’s the same one ARod would be aiming for…lol
LOL, very true. I thought the same thing after I hit send.
The problem with taking a DE early is giving up he chance to take a quality CB or OL prospect early
In the above draft it was OL
Can you name a quality interior OL in day 3
I think those odds are better than CB
Day 3 should still have a quality Center/OG in there.
CB’s are kinda thin after the 3rd, but some good developmental ones can be had.
DE has about 7 top flight types, but they will all go quickly.
The team kind of lost it for Syndergaard with that stupid switch on a lefty he just struck out the first time now you’re expecting him to pull the ball? Would have been out of the inning.
He’s now struck out the side twice. Up to 11 Ks. 🙂
It’s a good pitching dual between two very good young pitchers.
the 0-6 Bravos have a no name pitcher in a 0-0 duel right now. He has 6 K’s 0 BB’s thru 5in.
Don’t forget to vote in the 2 new polls
I can’t beleove “from the squiggly” only has 1 vote
➰
FU!!! LOL
It’s gotta be a Mac thing. Both computers at work and at home can’t view the polls.
I’m looking at them on my iphone
I don’t get why you can’t view them
I’m on a Mac and I can view them
I just noticed that many Oddyssey characters have emojis

I think that last one is a razor
Maybe you can just scroll through the emoji’s for ideas for your next character.

I’m going to be at Disney for the draft. I’m a little perturbed by that…
But if we draft Goofy with the 13 it will make more sense to you then the rest of us
Which Disney? Orlando?
LMFAO! Yes, Orlando.
Brian, I don’t get it. I used to be able to view the polls. WTF?!!
It’s odd. Maybe try restarting your computer?
Syndergaard is hands down my favorite Met.
He looks like he’s going to be one of those guys who dominates most games. This isn’t just this year. It started last year. He’s already a fan favorite. THOR!!!! LOL
He’s developed a 92-95 MPH slider which is insane to go along with a 97-100 fastball.
Absolutely. I loved when he threw inside against the Royals in the WS. He’s just an intimidating pitcher all around. Thanks Toronto! What a coup that was with him and D’Arnaud for Dickey.
12 K’s 1 BB thru 6in…wow on the K’s.
Chacin the Braves 5th starter in rotation had 8 K’s, 0 BB’s & 0 runs thru 6in tonite. The reliever is in now for the 7th.
Tim, clear your cache & reboot.
It’s probably those dancing guys in spandex that is screwing everthing up.
LMAO, no doubt they infected his puter like they infected his noggin. 😉
Bro, I keep my computer clean and clear everything on a regular basis. It’s not that. It’s gotta be a setting or an upgrade maybe.
its all that Monty Python porn slowing down Tim’s computer

That’s not cool for Herd, bro.
Oops, thought I clicked on the one with tape on her globes. My bad.
I wouldn’t even think of that during the daytime work hours. Damn you jetssuck! 👿
what’s wrong with that I don’t understand. It’s natural and there are plenty of places in different countries that celebrate events topless and totally nude. New Orleans has event that encourages topless. Sounds like people on here need to drink some prune juice.
Apologies to Herd. Ok, back to the raunchy bathroom & mixed gender discussions during the day.
I keep hearing how deep this CB class is, yet every time I put on game tape they get roasted. Just watched Fuller vs OSU. PI at the goal line on one play, and the next he gets beat deep. I know, now someone is going to say he didn’t give up any TDs in 2015. And he tackles like Dion SandCastle.
No CB is going to have perfect tape. The college game is all about a spread/read-option game. I’m leery of LB and DB as top draft prospects. They all get burned. LOL
DE may be the way to go. Look at our age and contracts moving forward. You don’t pass on pass rushers unless you find special somewhere else. The Super Bowl taught us that pass rush is the main Kryptonite for QBs. No way?! LOL
so just stopped by to see if the fins won the ota’s yet and after 17 hours of tax returns even i dont care for that pic. how about that even i have my breaking points.
getter, i think we all know you and that is way not your style. everyone makes mistakes.
take care all.
It’s not a big deal bc it’s so late
But I had to remove it for obvious reasons
So it never happened….
That solar tower is really awesome
I want one….lol
Two things I worked night shift most of my life so it is normal for me to go to bed anywhere between 3-6am. Drives my wife nuts. Secondly, I rarely drink too many meds. Bummer.
Al…you are correct in saying there are always stars taken early each draft. However, most years there is a definite pecking order, this year seems to be all over the place. Most of us here couldn’t agree on who we would take @8 and now @13 we are still undecided. Hell, even the top 3 are open to dispute, last year the 2 QBs were always going 1,2. This year who knows who goes where I have seen reports of wild arse trades and seriously is Ramsey worth the #1 pick. Most don’t even know if he is a S or a CB. Now that says a lot. which of the 2 OTs is the best one? Could be another Fisher and the dude from the Jags case yet again. Both flame out.
He’s a safety!!!!
Lol
I honestly think Ramsey and Jack are the blue chip prospects of this draft
I would take them before anyone else

is this the future? Man our world leaders figured out the oil crisis 40-50 years ago.
when flying into germany one can not miss all the electric generating wind mills.Our generation figured out one of the main crisis facing future generations.

I can see this in grocery store parking lots and malls in the future.Governments are already issueing credits for this and I think they can make it mandatory for new buildings which could make it more affordable because they are defraying the cost of old building which are ineffienct.
How’s this for maritime shipping energy savings.
Now lets not forget we have the Panama Canal expansion that is scheduled to go on line in June saving 1.8 days of shipping goods from around the Pacific. This project was figured out 30-40 years ago by our leaders. This will provide a major economic boom for us on the East coast. S.Florida has already dredged its shipping lanes/ports to make this possible.
PS-solar panels were produced in China so they could be affordable to everyday US citizens.The cost of buying solar panels have gone down almost 40 percent since the money was given to solar production plants from government stimulus plan. The highest cost of solar energy is installation which requires skilled people.
The current Panama Canal project may prove to be a waste of $ in consideration of the project going on in Nicaragua. There, the Chinese are involved in building their own Pacific-Carribean channel amid major protest for Nicaraguans.
I wouldn’t call it a waste of money since both would provide big benefits to us citizens.
@DRUDGE_REPORT: Ted Cruz Defended Ban on Dildos… https://t.co/rDd9Plvlp0
lmfao.
Imagine the headline in the local paper:
“Cruz aggressively pushes dildo ban!” And under that headline there’s a ad for low cost zucchinis at the farmers market.
guess we are not having zucchinis tonight
LMAO @ the pic of him looking like Leslie Nielson in Naked Gun.
😂
Are we the greatest generation of all or what? We figured out the oil crisis, world hunger, space travel, and medical cures to deadly diseases around the world.
Uhhh that’s great, then why are we still fighting over oil?
Why are there still starving & malnourished children across the world?
Why haven’t we been back to the moon, or put man past the moon in space?
Why is cancer, heart disease, diabetes and other diseases still killing people at an alarming rate?
compared to 30-40 years ago and where and are we now is light years. One of my relatives was in on the first open heart surgeries in the 70’s at jackson memorial hospital as a nurse now a days heart transplants are a pretty common procedure. We haven’t been to the moon but Mars is being explored without anyone in danger of death. We have figured out how to produce enough food for the world populations its only transporting the needed areas that’s a problem. Every failed attempt is a attempt closer to success.
Things have come a long way. most of the obstacles these days is over greed & corruption.
Cruz is a fucking dildo! lol
Is that photoshopped?
….a long slithering one that resembles a snake with all the deception & double speak.
And he loves to dress up as a geisha girl. LOL
LOL!
Cruz gives me the heebie-geebies. I don’t trust that guy at all.
There was a study about how his face looks and the way he smiles isn’t attractive to most people. LOL
https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-fallible-mind/201601/why-ted-cruz-s-facial-expression-makes-me-uneasy
LMAO!!!! The line “A face in need of a good punch” is EXACTLY how I feel about Cruz. That’s some crazy shiot right there.
I have an article ready to go – Anyone here want a new article now, or should I save it for tomorrow?
I can understand how you NY’ers feel today with downturned expressions usually signaling disagreeableness or disgust it’s understandable after all the Mets sucked last night and night before playing the Marlins.
I’m frustrated, not gonna lie. My team is in a funk, and I saw it all exhibition season, but hoped we’d snap out of it. It hasn’t happened yet, but thankfully, it’s very early. On the other hand, things can get out of hand fast if they don’t wake up soon.
Same here, but I’m not really concerned. Teams blow great starts and lose ground as the season goes on. Teams start off slow then go on hot streaks. With the pitching staff the Mets have, that usually comes to the forefront. The Mets bats are cold. It won’t stay that way.
How about them Oriole’s everything is clicking for them
The Miami Herald’s Armando Salguero reports DeVante Parker tore scar tissue in his foot back in Week 8.
We never knew the exact nature of Parker’s injury, which caused him to miss the next two games. Parker’s rookie year was an injury-filled mess for the most part, though we saw glimpses of why he was the 14th overall pick last April. He broke his foot at Louisville, required another surgery last summer, and then battled the same foot for much of 2015. Parker should be 100 percent now, but foot problems aren’t to be taken lightly.
@RapSheet: #Clemson DE Kevin Dodd is visiting the #Dolphins today, source said. He was recently with the #49ers & #Seahawks.
I like him a lot. Dodd hadn’t played a lot before, but is now ascending like gangbusters. Big man with a ton of skill, picks up technique quickly.
I like Lawson a lot too. Lawson is 2 years younger & has played more against LT’s. Something to consider.
Yep. On the surface Dodd seems to have a better pass repertoire because of his hand use and ability to to string moves together. Just my opinion.
Lawson does have one hell of a spin move & it’d be deadly from the wide 9.
Yes, and Shaq is fierce against the run, great at setting the edge to go along with a pass rush. Either guy would be good. I see them both having a good career.
Yep
Check out how many 2017 FAs we have. If we don’t have a good season this year, I expect the team to start going in another direction at a lot of positions.

Many of those are camp bodies, guys way down the depth charts, & aging players too.
I also saw a few that are in prove type deals as well. I’m not overly concerned here.
We have a good draft & things will start to take care of themselves. We’ll also see movement & churning of that list when the post June 1st cuts occur and TC roster trims happen.
There are plenty of core guys as in players who have been starters as well. My point being if we don’t have a good season this year, we’ll likely let all the guys looking for new contracts walk along with other high priced contracts because we couldn’t win with these players. I expect a large turnover of the roster if that happens.
Ok, I get what you’re saying, but we still have about 8mo before we have to start thinkin about that Skippy. 😉

other then wake, and he is coming back from a serious injury, who cares if they lose everyone of those FA’s. talk about reaching for an issue. almost everyone of those can be replaced and no one would notice
I’m saying we’d likely make changes with other high priced players as well. You’re still talking about players who were starting and playing roles. I’m just pointing out that a lot more change then we’ve seen could be coming if we don’t have a successful season.

mike,
did you hear the interview with Cruz’s roommate from college? He said he would rather pick someone randomly in the street to become president than Cruz. LOL
He hates cruz. IT seems like everyone that knows him doesn’t like him
Jalen Ramsey is on WFAN with Mike Francesa right now.
Most teams he’s met with view him as a corner. He loves to play special teams. He’s articulate and smart.
GD, you’re using my Skippy now? LOL
Damn Skippy there Sparky. LOL
‘You’re still talking about players who were starting and playing roles.’
yep, and still talking about players who sucked at their positions. so who cares if they are back or not
Okay I think turning over a majority of your roster is a pretty big deal.

if turning over 90% of a roster of a team that for the last 5 years has sucked i dont see that as a big deal but a good deal.
That was just part of the point of my post. I wasn’t saying it’s good or bad, just what I think could happen. I also think we make some cap cuts as along with it and basically start over.

Too funny. Did he get to the part about Cruz cross dressing & sneaking into the sorority houses?
Lawson is better for us given he is a true RDE (an yes thats important) and he fits the mold of what we want at the position. Dodd is every bit as talented and he fits us as well but if 13 was choosing between them for us, id be picking Lawson 10 times 10.
So Mando said Miami loves MLB BJ Goodson of Clemson. Good breakdown in this article.
He’s a locker room & sideline leader, very active non-stop on the field. That Tiger defense was ferocious.
He’s a low round prospect, anyone know why?
Some say his speed and coverage skills weren’t the best.
1yr starter incorrectly labeled as a 2 down thumper prior to his combine performance.

Man i totally despise FSU and they have a lot of players that have come out of there that are pure thug, but Ramsey to me is about as complete package for a player you can get. He has swagger, but is grounded, he’s articulate and intelligent (as you pointed out), he has a very strong football IQ and great instincts, he’s got athletic talent to back it all up and he brings a toughness and professionalism to being the best he can that is an intangible you cant only hope to find packaged with all the rest of those attributes. He and Hargreaves hold all of those things in common with one another, Ramsey has more versatility and Ramsey has more physical size and Hargreaves has more position specific (CB) skill but otherwise they are mirror images of one another.
I don’t think about Ramsey much because we aren’t going to be getting him. If we wanted something close to the mold of him, it would be Sean Davis…IMO.

There are several guys i would rather go with, and my preference is we get an athletic guy like Jones. However outside Ragland, and Brothers, Goodson is not a bad option compared to others. Im still somewhat on the fence with Matakevich and its probably because im listing to too many people who say he “cant” be great in the NFL over my eyes that says he’s a really solid player, but i still wouldnt rank him much above Goodson. Goodson, Alexander, Matakevich, maybe Schobert pretty much all in that same 3rd – 5th round cluster of potential ILB’s.
I think Goodson does take on and disengage from blockers better than any of Thor guys mentioned above including Jones. He Diesnt have the extra gear of Jones. I personally still like Burgess a lot more than all the guys on that list, but I’m the outlier😆
Don’t sleep on Kwiatkoski
Goodson’s numbers were pretty solid.

That’s where he started dispelling some of his negatives.

Ted Cruz thinks people don’t have a right to “stimulate their genitals.” I was his college roommate. This would be a new belief of his.
He’s a goof.
Yeah, didn’t we briefly discuss that above earlier?
Anywho, I’m not a Cruz fan. He’s a establishment mole backed by the Bush crime family.
Boulder, be careful with that post about Tedildo Cruz. Tim might post his Dicksuit guy again.
GD i still dont know how you think Neal is a 6-7th round guy. He has been on a TON of people radar as possible the best safety in the draft for a while now. Getting an invite to the NFL Draft in itself say not only do people like Mayock think he is a first rounder at least one team has said they would draft him in the first. Thats how they determine whom to invite to that, they have to have a potential to be drafted in the first. I personally for us would not draft him at 13, if we traded back late in the first, like people have purposed for us with Denver, if definitely consider him at 31, though i do believe safety position for us isnt a dire need at this point.
Huh? Where did I say he’s a 6-7th rd guy? I know he started out there due to injury concerns I think. He’s not a real ballhawk type, but he’s now moved up most people’s boards it seems. I wouldn’t take him until day 2 at the earliest…IMO.
GD, you really want to see that dicksuit don’t you.
i see it everyday Tim. You emblazoned it into my mind yas ditty bastid!
LOL
D,
Nfldraftscout has Neal with a 2nd RD draft projection and rate him as their #49th overall player available in the draft (#2 FS behind Ramsey). Nfldraftscout’s 5 year average for getting the top 100 players correct (those drafted top 100) is 82%; last year it was 82%.
I got ya, but again, im not saying this as opinion….he was invited to the draft which means there is at least one team who would draft him in the first…. thats the rule with whom they invite, if he wasnt potentially a 1st round select, he wouldnt be there.
I don’t think the Dolphins can afford to go high with that kind of position; especially with some attractive value picks that should be available in the 5th RD or so.
Sean Davis (Maryland) & Justin Simmons (Boston College) seem like prime candidates (both showed elite 3-cone times and good to great vertical jump ability in tests)….throw in Tyvus Powell (Ohio State) as well (tall & fast).
I like Deon Bush from Miami as well for late RD or so.
DJ Hunter from Marshall I’m trying to get more info on…this guy has ELITE speed. Clocked in a 4.38 40 time at his pro day but did so with a 1.45 sec 10 yard split (for perspective, Chris Johnson’s 40 split on his 4.2X sec 40 time was 1.40).
Hunter also jumped 39+ ” on his vertical …here’s the rest of his profile
http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=89627&draftyear=2016&genpos=FS
Al i doubt very well we go safety anywhere near 1st, i was stating it more as a refute to GD’s 6-7th statement. I think he is a really good safety, and yes, second to Ramsey as a FS. Im pretty sure safety isnt high on our draft list.
I do think though you are looking at the wrong type of S for us, we have Jones as a FS and if im picking up anything they have been laying down from who they targeted in FA and who they were looking at as far as draft interviews and workouts, id guess they were looking more for a box saftey or one with strong ability against the run, an agressive tackler with decent ball skills. I dont think they are looking for a true FS or coverage safety, because we have a damn good one already,
GDP, this was what i was replying to

I can’t see him going in the 1st round to anybody. He’s been as low as a 6-7th round projection early on with his speed concerns and recognitions.
A lot of guys have been low projections only to rise later in the draft process. That’s what I saw. I didn’t say that was my personal feelings.
Besides where he goes, I’m more high on the Terp Sean Davis & Justin Simmons out of BC.
