Jeff Ireland on Dolphins_2/16

[Rio]

main points of interview:
1) tendency of value over need
2) ideal when the two come together in a player
3) expectation of a strong draft
4) has eye on a few possible free agents

question:
who do you think he has in mind with the up-coming draft & free agency?

the most interesting portion of Ireland's interview, which can be heard by clicking here:D

Snippets I enjoyed:

The draft equals projection while free agency equals production.
You generally overpay in free agency.
The draft is important because you get the player you want at a good price for four or five years.

They know how to build a team. I just wonder who they will go after next.

man itd be nice if one of our needs matches one of the players value. which at this point with as many needs as we have, id say thats a good possibility.

Man I hate how they dance around questions. He asked if he knew what they were looking for in terms of position. Instead of answering he just says yes he have a good idea what we are looking for this year.

You would rather he just let the league know what he wants so a team can read our cards before the draft??

What's the problem?

He answered the question, YES!

Not his fault if the question was poorly phrased.
