They're either gonna trade up for Dez or be happy trading down for Benn or Golden Tate or scoop up Mardy Gilyard in the 2nd round.
Considering they had plenty of time to compete for Boldin and Bryant, both of whom were vocal about wanting to play here, and elected not to do so, the Trifecta obviously has an alternate plan in mind.
Better things (and players) are coming our way......
I just found a photo of Jeff Ireland at work, tirelessly trying to find a fix to the hole we've had at wide receiver the past 3 years:

Because Antonio Bryant is a stud WR. He was the future. :rolleyes2:
I can only hope down to get the extra pick in the second. If 3 picks in this seasons draft class project into the starting lineup that would make 9 in three years. 9!!!!!!!!!!! and if zero it is still 6 starters in 3 years. Free agency can not buy that.
Next season one of two things is going to happen:
1) another uncapped year with more free agent talent to buy
2) CBA is signed and there will around 500 UFA's hitting the open market!
Vaark hits the nail, if the front office thought we needed one of those receivers they would have signed them.
So relax drink some beer and a shot or five or Jack and count the days to the draft because this franchise is in better shape then it has been since Don Shula.
You better hope so because the Trifecta acts like they're not concerned at all about the WR position which is one of the weakest if not the weakest position on the team!!!!!
No, I agree Bryant wasn't our answer, but a stopgap. I DO have a problem with the fact that the team hasn't even brought in anyone to meet with them at WR. The moment I see the Dolphins have set up a meeting with even someone like Derrick Mason, I will believe that the team is at least looking at possibilities and are seriously attempting to fill a major hole on our team.
I don't mind us not signing anyone, but at least teams in need like the Bengals are doing their due diligence. I just ask they don't ignore it like they have in the past, or try to half-*** it with late round picks.
