Welcome to Miami Christian Wilkins!

The Miami Dolphins got themselves a very nice player in DT Christian Wilkins. Very high character, productive Defensive tackle. You’re probably thinking this is a conformist puff piece, right? NOPE!

So the Dolphins drafted a nice DT, that’s great. Guess what? We may have gotten the 3rd best DT in this draft in our division. Quinnen Williams, who may be the best player in the draft went to the Jets, and Ed Oliver a diversified freak of an athlete went to the Bills. Guess what else? Both of those teams have QB’s. Just shows how far behind the 8 ball we are. I will be watching Dwayne Haskins career closely. He was right there and we passed. I know so many of you are happy we did, and so many of you are happy we drafted Christian Wilkins instead. I’m not that guy.

Sure, there’s a possibility we take a QB in RD 2, or maybe in RD 7, but in my mind, our success or failure will be measured by Dwayne Haskins and Christian Wilkins. We didn’t have to reach for him, there was no trade up necessary, we just went in a different direction.. Look, this doesn’t mean I’m right, it’s just my opinion, and my opinion of this move is not good. Maybe we wait until next year with Tua, Herbert and Fromm, or maybe it’s just Tua and Herbert and Fromm plays his Senior year. Who knows what happens down the line, and it’s very risky putting all your eggs in one basket.

The draft isn’t over yet, I’m not condemning the entire draft of everything we do, I simply don’t agree with the choice they made last night. I hope Christian Wilkins has a great career here and is a perennial All-Pro. I just hope next year at draft time we’re all not scratching our heads about what we do at the QB position, the most important position in football.

    Even if Rosen doesn’t end up on the Phins my opinion about this situation still stands. When the Cardinals drafted Murray they basically told Rosen you’re not our guy. What’s he suppose to do, be happy? LOL

    Just remember with this hanging over his head for months he still showed up at minicamp ready to work and do his job.

    • stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

      He stopped being “friends” with the Cardinals on Facebook or something. And assume he could get right back on. If he did it in a petty way…. then so are the people calling him out for it unless they are in high school.

    Ok, well I’m going to the bar after work and I’m gonna stay there for a couple hours so when I hear they traded away our pick for a loser, at least I don’t break my own shit.

    Everyone wants a QB but not with the 48th pick in the 2nd round? I don’t get it.

    Maybe instead of doing a Fest Game, you should do a Fest at the NFL draft. Looks like a big party!

    So much unnecessary drama. LOL
    ——————
    I don’t see ANY drama! I’m trying to get Rosen’s stock to tank, so as to get him for lesser than a 2nd rounder! Lou seems to want to spend as much as possible to land him!

    I’m with getting Josh Rosen, but NOT for a 2nd rounder. Let’s try to get him cheaper, based on some of my points.

  13. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    No to Rosen. Give me more defense and some o-line.

  14. Wyoming85's avatar wyoming85 says:

    Use the 2020 2nd?

    Why dont they just trade Reshad for Rosen?! 😉

  18. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    Just saw endgame. 6.5/10 for me. The great parts were amazing, but not enough to cover the rest of the movie. Could have done with some serious editing.

  19. CavalierKong's avatar CavalierKong says:

    SB what did you think of Captain Marvel (the movie)? just trying to gauge our respective interests…

    • sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

      Didn’t like it. Pretty bland and all around unnecessary in the MCU. Infinity War was excellent however, as were all of the other Russo brothers movies. Half of this movie didn’t feel like a Russo brothers movie though and I felt it suffered for it.

      • CavalierKong's avatar CavalierKong says:

        :/ :/

        Darn, I would describe it almost exactly the same way. I was hoping you’d say something like, “I didn’t watch it”. lol

  20. Rockphin's avatar Rockphin says:

    Just had the most gorgeous women I’ve seen in a long time freeze me like a deer in the headlights I stopped breathing and my heart skipped a beat she was coming out of Starbucks as I was going in and I held the door and she stopped and stared me in the eye

    Maybe it wasn’t as long as it felt like but it seemed very uncomfortably long time where I couldn’t move talk or do anything

    She just stared me in the eye

    Then she smiled shyly looked down demurely and walked away

    Kong,
    I’ve watched them all. I try to give things a shot so I can evaluate them fairly.

    • CavalierKong's avatar CavalierKong says:

      Yeah, I almost never go to the theater and wouldn’t have for Captain Marvel, but I had to because of the timing of release (fuck you Disney). There was no way I was going into Endgame missing that cog.

      If you hadn’t seen it, I could have written off your opinion as that of a casual fan who doesn’t know all the little stuff.

  23. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    Looks like Tyreek Hill’s NFL career is over.

  24. Wyoming85's avatar wyoming85 says:

    Darwinism!

  25. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    Kong,
    have you seen Endgame yet?

    • CavalierKong's avatar CavalierKong says:

      Got tix for tomorrow at 7 PM. That’s why I was gauging your interest in it. I’m an avid fan, and yours is the first real person review I’ve heard.

      • sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

        Maybe I went in with too high of expectations after Infinity War. IDK. I might have to rewatch it. 6.5 is my first impression though.

      • CavalierKong's avatar CavalierKong says:

        I gotcha. I have those same expectations and am hoping not to be let down. Your impression of the film was just a splash of cold water in my little bubble of nerdy anticipation, lol. The reviews have been so overwhelmingly positive it was just a bit of a surprise, but like I said, you’re the first real person I know to have seen it.

        Cheers 🙂

  26. stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    Tim — why do you think “Tyreek Hill’s NFL career is over”? Know he has a long suspension in his future, but did something new come out other than the belt and the broken arm?

  27. mf13ss's avatar mf13ss says:

    LOL at some of y’all trying to trivialize Josh Rosen’s unfollowing of the Cards on Twitter and Insta. Our Dolphins may get the last laugh if we can land him for a 3rd rounder now. We shall soon see!

    • Mike E.'s avatar Mike E. says:

      I totally trivialize it. It’s not even a news item. People take twitter too seriously. Freakin’ Ajayi didn’t listen to his coaches and was traded and people freaked out. He deserved it! Josh Rosen doesn’t want to be associated with the team that is getting rid of him. What that matters I can’t comprehend.

      • mf13ss's avatar mf13ss says:

        It’s all good, and I don’t think this thing is something that should divide us. I’m just hoping that we can get Rosen on the cheap, while still addressing the trenches with our round 2 pick tonight.

    • stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

      I thought he was pissed at the Cards and expected to be traded or wanted to help make that happen. Am I missing that going off social media streams is a huge deal in general? Is it like friends on facebook or something more?

      Or basically what significance do you see in it?

      • mf13ss's avatar mf13ss says:

        I think I’ve addressed this at length over the last couple of hours, man. We’ll soon see whether it really matters.

      • stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    My man… would you PLEASE STOP demeaning yourself! You bring MUCH to the table, Stanger!

    All I have to offer is my opinion, and I most certainly don’t know it all. I try my very best to keep this great board apprised of the latest and greatest news, and I do come with a little bit (not a LOT) of experience, what with my/our love of our Phins.

    I RESPECT YOU, MR. Stanger!

    • stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

      And I respect you a lot M13, but we each have our own areas of expertise. Was just asking for your wisdom in what thought was one of yours. And I am more than willing to admit when am clueless….. how one learns.

      Ever come to a Fest and don’t think you will have many worries about my overall self-confidence though. Just think am realistic about both my strengths and weaknesses (and always trying to make the latter less so with the help of people I respect).

  35. stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    “Adam Schefter, reports that Miami will choose between Rosen and Missouri product Drew Lock when on the clock with its second-round pick.”

    Knew this would come up. Dolphins are putting the pressure back on the Cards by feeding it to Schefter.

  47. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    Lol at Reggie Wayne talking trash. Love Eddie George up there too. One of my favorite non Dolphins

  48. Randy's avatar Randy says:

    Phish,
    I probably like Minshew more than Grier. It’s kinda hard to project all these air raid QBs to the next level. But, Grier’s throwing motion gives me pause. It’s so slow and just not NFL-like. I think he’ll need to be coached to change it. I don’t see it working at the next level. Not only is it slow, but he will be much easier to strip with his arm motion. I like a lot of his other attributes though.

  49. stangerx's avatar stangerx says:

    If we trade for Rosen won’t come up till our pick (and could be done already). Could trade up for Lock or anyone before then. Things will get real interesting if Lock is still available when on the clock, but guessing he won’t be.

  50. sb7mvp's avatar sb7mvp says:

    Hide your chain. Deebo is coming.

    SHITTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  54. naplesfan2010's avatar naplesfan2010 says:

    I want us to go DE in this round … Jaylon Ferguson or Chase Winovich
    if not then RT / LG such as Dalton Risner or Eric McCoy

    Lock best available by ESPN right now. Finley is fourth.

  56. naplesfan2010's avatar naplesfan2010 says:

    Cody Ford to the Bills. Geez! The Tackles are flying off the board now.

  68. Randy's avatar Randy says:

    Phish,
    He tends to drop his hands and then his motion starts closer to his waist than his shoulder. Then, his motion ends up being a circular wind up instead of over the top. It slows his delivery down. It gets even worse when he scrambles. Simple coaching could improve it. I wonder if he was a fumbler in college. I’ve never even looked at his stats. Gotta go check.

  69. mf13ss's avatar mf13ss says:

    • The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

      I saw him mocked all over the place

      So I don’t think he’s dropping I just think some people had him too high

    • mf13ss's avatar mf13ss says:

      I think he’s a strong possibility for us… if we’re going BPA, and if we don’t trade our 2nd for Josh Rosen.

  83. The Flying Pig's avatar The Flying Pig says:

    So don’t think we need a cb

    But I didn’t expect greedy Williams to be available

  84. Tim Knight's avatar Tim Knight says:

    I don’t think we have to have a CB this year. We have Howard, added Eric Rowe, we have McCain, Tankersley should be back, Armstrong will compete for playing time and Minkah was already told prepare to learn all the spots because he’s going to be multiple.

        That’s all I keep hearing when they mention the Dolphins. It’s like when brady Quinn was available in the draft that’s all they could connect and when we didn’t take him they had a meltdown. Lol.
