I know that we all want that stud qb like Marino, but Brady Quinn? I've watched a lot of Quinn, watched highlights etc, and I don't want to draft him anywhere before LATE 1st round. In my opinion he has bust wriiten all over him.
First of all he played for Weiss who is a qb mastermind ( a la Tedford).
Secondly, he had a very good college wr corp
Thirdly, he had a very good college ol

Simple question...if Quinn didn't play for Weiss and the Notre Dame hype machine, where would he get drafted? My guess would be in the Beck Stanton, Edwards range...maybe later.

He was a nice college qb in a nice system for a qb, that being said, I hope and pray that we don't drat Brady Quinn...JUST SAY NO!
 
The lovefest is because we're desperate for a Quarterback. When you're desperate, you're judgement isn't that clear.
 
I think if you give Quinn some good schooling, and some playing time to build his confidence, he'll turn out to be a very productive Qb in the NFL for years to come. Quinn has a lot of talent, and he's poised to make his mark once he gets his opportunity....

I wont be crushed if Quinn is drafted ahead of us, {and I don't have a lovefest going on with him either}, but I think he'd be a very good fit within the offense that Cameron is currently installing in Miami....

If we can't land Quinn, I think we should bolster the OL and draft OT L. Brown at #9, then look for our Qb in round two. I'd be happy with either Stanton / Beck....

PHINZ RULE!!!!!
 
well said, if we can't get Quinn at 9, build up the o-line so that whoever we DO get, has a chance.

Weis is nothing like Tedford as the only two QBs he has coached are Tom Brady and Brady Quinn.
Very good wr corp? So having a very good wr corp is a bad thing for a QB?

For me it has nothing to do with him playing for Notre Dame (not a fan nor have I ever been one) but him being coached by Charlie Weis, who ran a pro-style type of offensive system. It is also the reported hard work Quinn puts in the film room. Quinn is also believed to be the most NFL ready QB in this year's draft. Is that hype...maybe but it has little to do with him being at Notre Dame.
 
pnce i saw brady quins 2-10 record against good teams the man crush was over. We are talking about a guy who put up jaw dropping stats against the likes of army, navy and other service academys not exactly top ranbked compitition.

Marino was 0-1 in SuperBowls....I suppose that makes him no good....What's your point? It is a TEAM game you know! Qb's get too much credit in a win and too much blame in a loss...Truth is that 2-10 record was because the rosters at Notre Dame SUCKED!

Simple Answer, Maybe your view of Quinn isn't shared by everybody?
Its not like Brady Quinn is a consenus top ten pick only on this Dolphin board, its very likely Cleveland will select him at Number #3.

Maybe the Browns and Dolphins front offices should call you to get the REAL story on Quinn! :sidelol:

Pretty much says it all right there.

Weiss is nothing like Tedford and ND's WR corps was very good? Not hardly.

In a few years, the only time the word "Bust" will be used in relation to Brady Quinn is the anticipation of his entrance into the Hall of Fame!!

That's rediculous he hasn't even taken an NFL snap, and you've already elected him into the NFL Hall of Fame. That's not even close to a rational argument.

Dude, c'mon, I was just having some fun w/ this!

Obviously, though, I think he's going to be a great player. That's my real point.

I think your taking things a little too seriously.
 
When I compared Weiss and Tedford, I was comparing them both , because they are both GREAT offensive minds.

ND had one of the nations best wr corps...Samardza! He would have been a first round pick. McNight, he'll get drafted in the middle rounds. Carlson-he'll be a middle round pick.

I think Quinn could be a serviceable NFL qb, I just don't think he's worthy of a top 10 pick.
