Since things have been looking so positive with the Dolphins and new Front Office, I thought I'd create a poll to go over the worst mistake that was made since Marino's career ended. We can look back and laugh because it just doesn't hurt as much anymore because of the direction we are in.
1. AJ Feeley for a 2nd round pick.
Not only was it a 2nd round, but it was the 2nd or 3rd pick in the round.
A 3rd string QB who never made any impact with this team.
2. Daunte Culpepper for a 2nd round pick.
A very big gamble that set this franchise back as much if not more then Feeley. Let's not forget the 8 million bonus we gave him.
3. Wannstedt Trading a 2nd round pick to the Patriots (division rival) in the next years draft for a 3rd round pick in the current draft. Only to go on and take Wade Smith, then Taylor Whitley in the same round.
4. Passing on players like Anquan Boldin and taking a linebacker named Eddie Moore who was projected by some to go undrafted. A major bust.
5. Passing on a player like Drew Brees to take Jamar Fletcher. Though a bust with the Dolphins, Fletcher has been able to play well enough to still be an active player in the NFL.
6. Trading Adewale Ogunleye for Booker and a 3rd round pick. Only to spend that third on a running back that never did anything in the league (lamar gordon) Adewale wanted a new deal, and received 10.5 million in guarenteed money. We gave the same amound of bonus money with Vonnie Holiday. Yes, the salary cap has gone up, but still, he was worth the money for the Bears, he would still be a force here.
