Who is still wearing a boot from an injury during the national championship game (WTF IS IT WITH US AND INJURED PLAYERS?), Who doest even weigh 180 pounds so hes gonna get broken in half sooner then later.

Explain why you waste a top 10 pick on a kick returner. The bears took hester in the 2nd round because YOU DONT TAKE SPECIAL TEAMS 1st ROUND.

Do we have Spielman back in miami? We should have moved down and gotten A REAL NEED. WR was a need but not an injured receiver.

12 real needs on this team but a top 10 pick on a kick returner is not one of them. THIS IS incompetence, pure and simple. IM not saying we had to select Quinn but we just picked up an injured player who Maddog says has Family in the front office.
 
why can' the? plz explain? do you konw nethin bout the guy to judge?

Yep you take a QB that will be the future of your franchise!

Well for one thing, he's out at least 6 more weeks with his foot injury, so say goodbye to him playing in Spring Camp. Cam went with a personal friend rather than someone we actually needed or for that matter rather than the best player available. We could have traded down God knows how many spots and still gotten Ginn. This was a family favor, and Cameron already tied his own noose with it.

We are the laughing stock of the draft and rightfully so.

Passing on a franchise quarterback and instead reaching for a kick returner/slot receiver is flat out ridiculous.

You have posted nearly 4 thousand times and you have yet to complete sentences in English. Between your lack of fluent communication and your love for Ginn, you don't realize that while Ginn may be a great receiver, we have no one to throw to him.
 
Ya know what... Kudos to the dolphins for not drafting a player they could have felt forced to take. It's not a guarantee Ginn would have fallen very fall because the 49ners had a need at WR.
 
Utterly stupid draft pick. I'd hoped the gross incompetence and craven favoritism had ended, but it seems to be a critical illness from which the Miami Dolphins have not recovered.

Welcome back Nick Saban, welcome back Dave Wannstedt.
 
For about the 80th time, this was MUELLERS draft call, not Camerons. So get it right.

Second, I love Ginn, I think he will be a bigtime player. But DAMN passing on Quinn gave me a quesy feeling. This is gonna be one of those things where in 5 years either we will be lauded for our foresight as Quinn pulls a Tim Couch, or derided as Quinn leads the Browns to the SB.

I dunno, Ginn was my second most realistic pick fav, so Im not upset about getting him, but I am upset and kinda confused as to why we passed on Quinn..

The second round will clear up many things. Its possible we have another QB rated highly. We will see.
 
Im glad we have all these experts on this site. Explain to me what you guys see in Quinn that 20+ GMs didnt see? Why should the Fins take a QB in the first round, when they could add someone in the second who they are just as high on, while adding one of the top skill players in the draft? Ohio St probably would of still lost, but Ginn would of made it a much different game against Florida in the championship game. Sure he is a few weeks away from getting on the field, but its May, and he will have plenty of time to get his work in. Ginn not only adds speed opposite to Chambers, which will give Chris more playmaking abilities, but he also gives us a true weapon on kickoffs and punt returns.

I dont know about others, but Id be happy with Ginn, Beck or Kolb, and Ugoh with our first three picks in the draft.
 
I don't pay any attention to college football and so there's no way I know how good Ginn will or won't be, but the ESPN News crew discussed the pros/cons of Quinn and it seems that he landed in about the right place. They showed a couple of his TD throws, which, despite the commonly cited "lack of talent" around him, the receiver had to come back to make the catch and pull off a nice move to get in the end zone. While it goes into the stat book as a TD, in the NFL it may have been 6 points the other way. Plus, apparently he wavers in clutch situations.

Maybe the Fins should've picked someone other than Ginn (who, I'd have no idea), but it would be some coincidence if 19 other teams (excluding Cleveland and Miami) passed up a future franchise QB--regardless of need--some even trading down in the process. I'm sorry but teams don't pass on--let alone trade down on--a Dwyane Wade, a LeBron James, or any other player in any sport that puts your team on the map as a contender.

Then again, I don't really watch college football.
