Title: One of Six: 2006 Draft
Post by: Dave Gray on February 13, 2006, 01:31:08 am
I think that there are six guys that we could land that would be a success.

They are:
1 Matt Leinart QB
2 Vince Young QB
3 Jay Cutler QB
4 D'Brickshaw Fergusson OT
5 Winston Justice OT
6 Jimmy Williams CB

Obviously most of these guys will be gone early, but I think if we can grab any of these six, it'd be a steal.  I think that Williams is actually a pretty good possibility.

What about S/CB Huff from Texas?

If you're going to include Leinart and Young, why not include Bush?

I agree with Run To Win.  Gotta include Huff in that group.

I think there is a good chance that all 6 will be gone by Miami's #16 pick.

Ngota, Defensive Tackle stud from Oregon, would be another for me. We are extremely old in that position, and he'll be a great long-term answer.

This is like a Christmas wish list. I don't see any of these guys available at our pick.

I don't know if you followed the TDMMC mock draft thread, but I was pimping Ngata heavily in there as well. The guy is a freakin' beast in the middle, and will be a pro bowl nose tackle by his third season...if not immediately.

I think Cutler is a slight possibility, with Justice, Williams, and Huff being strong possibilities.

What about S/CB Huff from Texas?

I didn't know that he was a CB, to be quite honest.  ...I figured he was gone anyway.  If he plays both safety and CB, I would add him to the list.

If you're going to include Leinart and Young, why not include Bush?

Because we've already got squared away at RB.  I realize that Leinart and Young are way gone at that pick, but I was just adding them, because QB is a pretty immediate need.

Not sure whether it was the BBQ spam nachos or the yoo-hoo chocolate-orange smoothie, but I just had a flash...Miami drafts, in order, with their first three picks:

Round one: Va Tech CB Jimmy Williams, who inexplicably slides to #16, just like in the TDMMC mock. Becomes the greatest defensive back in franchise history.

Round two: Alabama QB Brodie Croyle, who steps up to the podium and proceeds to headbutt the assistant commissioner, ensuring 7 more years of bad QB luck for the Dolphins. Fool us twice, shame on us...

Round three: LSU OT, Andrew Whitworth. Saban dips back into the Gulf again, grabbing an NFL-ready player from his old Tigers. Whitworth is starting by midseason under Houck's tutelage.
