Section 211
I saw that this morning on Sportscenter. I would be more than happy if we drafted Quinn. :D
Im for passing on Quinn and giving Culpepper the reigns. I dont think Quinn will be as good as Culpepper was in Minnesota. If Culpepper cant get healthy then go for it but if hes healthy Quinn wont see the field for years and this is a wasted pick. Im not sure why but I just dont think Quinn is going to be great, I dont think hes as talented as Dante either. Im not sure why everyone is so ready to throw Dante overboard, when he was healthy he was a MVP canidate. His last full healthy season was better than Quinn will ever do.

Seriously, this was a ALLTIME great season. Almost 70% comp thats absurd. If Manning hadnt broke records that year Dante was easily the MVP. We are going to dump him for a rookie? We arent Brady Quinn from a title.
I don't think we're a Daunte Culpepper away from the Super Bowl either, so draft Quinn if he's there, and rebuild the right way for once
if he does we'd better take him. Even as a rookie he'd be better than anyone we have now. He's even a better fit for Miami than Russell because of the offense he ran in college and hed need less time to get adjusted. If Culpepper's healthy he could start the year until Quinn's ready to take over. Much like Vince Young with the Titans last year, it wouldnt take long for the Dolphins to start Quinn with all his talent.
Rebuild? Cmon, thats like a 3 year ordeal waiting for Quinn to mature. Daunte healthy is better than Quinn will ever be and I disagree about not being a healthy Dante from a title shot. If Dante is in his 2004 form we have a very legit shot a title, if Quinn is healthy and starting we are picking top 10. You play to win titles, not develop kids that might never be as good as what you have. People are in love with Quinn, he will never be as good as a healthy Daunte. People have soured on a player while he is hurt, forgetting that daunte was one of the top Qbs in the league without question. We invested a 2nd rounder in him, giving him half a year and drafting his replacement with a top 10 pick is what bad teams do. If we draft Quinn we are joining the Cards and the other dregs of teams that have no clue.
Regardless, he will be gone I hope before we draft.
Daunte played hurt this season, and it wasn't a fair representation of what he can do when healthy. That being said, his decison making was horrible, and it's the mental side of his game that scares me at this point. If he comes back 100% and plays well, then I'll be thrilled...but I'm not entirely sure that will ever happen, and Brady Quinn in my mind is an ideal Qb to build a young offense around.
Also I think you overstate the talent on this team's roster./ i would have no problem taking a step back next year to develop an elite young QB. Consider it an investment in not sucking for the next 10 years

I'm not throwing Daunte overboard, on the contrary, i hope he gets healthy & has a great year. The reality is that he is getting old & is not going to be here for more than four, maybe five years. Why would we not draft a QB who would be ready to take over once Daunte leaves? Or better yet, isn't healthy enough to play next season? I don't feel like going through the whole let's find a QB ordeal again, neither next year or in 4 years, do you?
Also, isn't it a little premature to already say that Brady Quinn will never be good in the NFL?
