Title: Fins: Receiver? No way Post by: DolFan619 on February 17, 2009, 07:38:40 pm http://blogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports_seasonticket/2009/02/fins-receiver-no-way.html
Fins: Receiver? No way If you've seen the ESPN scroll, you'll seen that Mel Kiper continues to project Maryland receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey to the Dolphins at No. 25. Heyward-Bey has great size and strength, as noted on this scouting report. Now that you're done reading that, realize this: You just wasted your time. Bill Parcells does not take receivers in the first round, unless the owner makes the call (Terry Glenn in 1996). And I don't see the Dolphins doing that this year. They want linemen and linebackers. So what happens at receiver? I expect them to draft one or two in later rounds, while developing Brandon London and after signing someone at a reasonable price in free agency. > Posted by Ethan J.

Maybe someone like Ramses Barden (Cal Poly)? He's freaking HUGE at 6'6", 227lbs. He has decent speed, especially for a guy his size, but he might be more of a tight end in the pros - if he can block. He did pretty well in the Senior Bowl, but his combine will really determine where he lands. Currently projected low second to third round. I DON'T want to spend a first round pick on a receiver. With or without family... Title: Re: Fins: Receiver? No way Post by: Defense54 on February 18, 2009, 09:50:18 am Quote They want linemen and linebackers. That is why Parcells is a winner. Save the sexy picks for when you have a sexy team. Right now we are about as sexy as Oprah in a bikini. Title: Re: Fins: Receiver?

Ewwww.... did you have to go there? Anyways both Kiper and McShay are fooling themselves if they think that Miami would take a WR with their first round pick. Especially a WR that is essentially a clone of Ted Ginn Jr. in Darrius Heyward-Bey. The pick will be either a OLB, C, OG, ILB. Title: Re: Fins: Receiver?

Put his ass next to Jake Long and watch that whole side of the line collapse as Ronnie or Ricky scamper for a long gain.

Glad people are paying attention to the guys I've mentioned we should draft lol. Robinson or Mack (The guy that makes Stroke wet...hell me too, he's a stud) would be awesome with our first pick or any of the first round DB's...Sean Smith in the second round would be nice, but we could go 1-2 with DB's and I wouldn't be upset. Ramses Barden is the one guy I want us to draft more than anyone. If he goes as a WR he'll tower over DBs and if goes TE, he'll be like an Antonio Gates. 4.5 speed isn't all that slow either...Fitzgerald ran a 4.6 at the combine. I think he's a little too small weight wise to be TE though. |
