Who?

Exactly! Let's keep looking for upgrades at Oline, while we trade Pro Bowlers away. -EK

Better than drafting an O-lineman in the first round AGAIN.

We sign this guy, Jake Long gets healthy and John Jerry continues playing well at right guard, the O-line may actually do some damage.

Winston's a good tackle.  I like him quite a bit (not just because he's a UM guy, eh, who are we kidding...pretty much because he's a UM guy).  If he's reasonable, I wouldn't mind...

I'd rather get this guy who looks to be pretty darn good than drafting an OL man in the 1st round. Again.

An O-lineman is a safe pick for Ireland in the first round. He can easily look back and say his guy is contributing.

I don't disagree with this for Ireland's sake. I'd rather get a skill position but, who knows nowadays.

SIRIUS NFL Radio saying Winston wants to be the highest paid RT in the NFL. If true, cross off Miami!

Winston is a beast.  He'll cost too much, though.

Dolphins just signed O-linemen Art Hicks to a 1 year deal. He can play both guard and tackle, solid back-up to have.

$2 mill deal. . Started 3 games for the Browns last year. Has 71 lifetime NFL starts.

"Solid back-up"........sounds familar

Miami is still in play for Eric Winston. Even though they gave Lydon Murtha $1.9 mill the other day and Art Hick $2 mill the other day, Winston is in play.

Winston canceled his Rams visit and is down to either KC or Miami. If Miami can land Winston, if you have a "healthy" Jake Long. Pouncey. Incognito at one guard, you figure Jon Jerry who improved as last year went on at the other guard....that is a very very good o-line!

Winston added a visit to the Lions on Monday. Obviously the report of him being down to his final 2 teams was wrong.

But he did cancel the Rams visit which is odd. Maybe he just doesn't like Jeff Fisher..lol

Yes, miami should start getting players who play 1 position well instead of shit players who can play 2 positions below average.

Winston signed with KC today. They got him in the building and didn't let him leave without a deal, that's how you do it!

Winston's deal with KC is cheap 4 years $22 mill. I can't believe Miami wasn't serious players with him.  Everyone reporting KC got a steal. If the Dolphins take the money they used on Hicks, put it towards Winston they could have had him easily. Pro Bowl RT on the cheap, Ireland goes for Art friggin Hicks, a back-up swing tackle! UNREAL!!!! Or to put it another way, Winston got RICHARD MARSHALL money!!!

Ireland will prove a point with Lydon Murtha if it kills him. Murtha is his boy and he will force feed him and prove it will work! Can't admit a mistake



Brandon Lloyd to NE, 3 years $12 mill, even a bigger steal!
