▪ Jeremiah insists that if he were ranking the quarterbacks in the 2018 draft and the 2019 draft – even with what he knows now about the 2018 class – he would rank three from the 2018 class (including Rosen) ahead of any in the 2019 class.

“He’s one of the more talented passers coming into the league,” Quinn said. “I called a number of his games at UCLA. You’ve got a guy with a lot of upside at minimal cost. You are getting a player with a little bit of NFL seasoning. I called a couple of Arizona Cardinals games, vs. Detroit and Seattle. That team was decimated; they had two [offensive linemen in those games signed off the streets within the previous two weeks].

“On top of that, [offensive coordinator] Mike McCoy was fired [seven] weeks into the season. Byron Leftwich takes over and he hadn’t called plays before. ...You couldn’t have drawn up a worse scenario to put a rookie into and ask him to win games. Last year you can throw out a little bit. He showed a lot of toughness, a lot of ability on a team without a lot of tools around him. I’ve got a lot of optimism about what he could be for the Dolphins.

“For all the people who want to criticize him - Steve Smith Sr. knows literally nothing about him. He’s hyper-competitive... I don’t have any reservations about this guy being a good teammate.”

▪ We hear one player the Dolphins had interest in drafting, had they successfully moved down from 13th in the first round, was Mississippi State defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons, who went 19th to the Tennessee Titans. But the Dolphins were thrilled with Christian Wilkins at 13.

If Rosen is the real deal, I’d expect us to flush with draft picks over the next 3-4 years if we have just a tad bit of patience.

We certainly can’t be using multiple 5ths, 6ths and 7ths regularly. I’m stoked at the notion someone realized how critical draft capital is. It’s so hard to really build draft ammo but right now 2020 is going to be our most valuable stock pile of picks since???? 2008?

this is great, thanks.. and I'm glad to see Steve Smith getting bashed all over the place
 
If Rosen ROCKS we got the steal of draft -- and nothing short of a brilliant move.

If he bombs -- at least we made an aggressive move and we will go right back

fishing in QB pond. For sure, a low risk roll of the dice with a potential big payoff.

If we continue to play the odds as intelligently we should be in good shape.

Unsure if its the tequila or recent addition of omeprazole into my routine

but I feeling more opta-mystic!

One thing is Miami doesn't have a lot of talent that you can trade and get a day one or two picks for, so it's hard to build up a lot of good draft picks.
 
I didn't care about the football stuff. The money saving anecdotes of Christian Wilkins were great. I have done that type of thing, albeit to much lesser degree. In Las Vegas I almost never had to pay for meals because I had friends in every sportsbook so it was comps galore, often more than one per day.

Those paragraphs need to be shown to the genius cynics at CanesInsight, who are convinced that all of these top college players receive bagfuls of money one on top of the other.

My feelings exactly. But man if Rosen can just pan out, we'll have so much ammo to finish this rebuild sooner than later.
