Ramses Barden = Legedu Naanee.
It appears a number of members of this board have been stricken with Hogan-Moore Syndrome, which causes them to overrate late-round and undrafted receivers based on a few minor accomplishments. I would like to sincerely apologize in advance for all of you getting your hopes up that Matthews will ever be an integral part of the Dolphins' offense, and the disappointment that is sure to ensue. Looking forward to July when we're doing the same thing with Undrafted Receiver To Be Named.

For what reason are you so against Rishard Matthews?
Matthews was hardly an unknown quantity. I remember him giving Boise State fits in the second half two years ago, the game Boise State lost after leading Nevada big in the first half. It unfairly knocked them out of a BCS game. I'm a huge Boise State fan and laugh like heck when they dismantle teams like Oregon 2009 and Georgia 2011. I was desperate for Boise State to get a crack at a big name opponent in the 2010 bowl season. Matthews played a big role in denying that opportunity so that contributes to my impression of him, not merely preseason or late season 2012.
Besides, the issue here is not Matthews against a premier prospect or valued free agent. It's Matthews versus Ramses Barden.
B-b-b-ut he was drafted in the seventh round and Ramses Barden had a good game against the Carolina Panthers!
I never said Barden would start for us. But when every NFL team is filling up their 90-man rosters with long-shots and no-chances to take to camp, acting like having Barden in the mix is a waste of time is ridiculous. Especially when people are overrating Matthews because he caught a ball and took a hit once.
No, you are overrating Ramses Barden because he had one good game against one of the worst defenses in NFL history.
I'm not overrating him. I'm saying he was a quality draft prospect and is worth bringing to camp as one of 10-12 receivers.
Yes, you are overrating him. Let's bring back Roberto Wallace while we're at it. :up:
