Assuming for a moment that both Brady Quinn and Vince Young decide to come out for the draft to join Leinart as top prospects. Who would you prefer? If both juniors enter, the price for Leinart and Rivers would likely drop and maybe Miami would have a better chance to swing a trade.

Or would you prefer to draft something other than qb in the first round (Lt, CB, DT, LB best player) and look at one of the second tier qb's like Jay Cutler, Brodie Croyle or Charlie Whitehurst?
 
IF they both came out. Young = WR...other than that my personal preference would be Quinn over Leinart, but I would definitely not lose sleep over getting Leinart. Other than the fact that I was so happy we did I couldn't sleep.

I'd take Leinart or Cutler over the rest of them, of course the ranking could change dramatically by draft time, but to me Cutler is the total package that might be available for our pick, Leinart is probably out of reach.

Young = WR?....O'Brother....the kid average's over 300 yds a game offense by throwing and running himself....and you think he's a WR? He's the future...better hope you can grab him. He has only two years of playing QB at Texas....and he already has broken many records....his play can only get better.

Of the A-list here, I'd take Leinart hands down. Of the B-list, I like Whitehurst. I think he's a sleeper.

Vince Young is the perfect weapon.

College production means nothing in the NFL, nothing.
 
If we are within 5 picks of drafting Matt Leinart, I think we must do whatever it takes to move up and get him.

On the other hand, If we can get Rivers or Carr, and then use the #1 on D'Brick, That would be a major boust to the future of the Dolphins.
