Fact: Without Ted Ginn we are NOT 11-5 and we are NOT AFC East Champions. Period. Hopefully all this jive talk about 'trading him for a 6th rounder' can stop. He's been consistently clutch when we've needed him. In the Bills game, in the Raiders game, in the Seahawks game and in the Jets game.
 
When we drafted him with the 9th overall pick a couple years ago, I was not too happy, but you see how he is progressing and his hands are getting better all the time. He still has that great speed. Unlike Hagan, who didn't seem to want to work to become an NFL receiver, it sounds like Ginn is putting in the effort. I think he has shut up all his doubters.
 
He has been clutch.....at times.But I think you're belittling the value and accomplishments of Bess and ESPECIALLY FASANO.I realize that bottomline,it's about winning....TEAM.!!! Ginn is solid,but he's not gonna Wow anybody as an elite receiver.Having said that,I'd LOVE nothing more,than for him(and Cameron)to prove me wrong.He's young,and plenty of time for him to mature.At least we have FINALLY found someone(Penny)to get him the ball.
 
he had some HUGE catches yesterday. The flee flicker to him in double coverage was amazing. He was the only one who went up for the ball. snatched it right out of the air! The TD was very nice as well

Yeah....A great play.The ball looked underthrown to me,and he had to adjust himself to get underneath the coverage to make the play. :up:
 
He is better. He is a #2 though and we need to accept it. We will get a masterful #1 next year hopefully then we will be extremely explosive.
 
I'm not taking credit away from ANYONE! I love Fasano I LOVE Bess and I love Camarillo. With that said, amongst those players Ginn easily is under fire the most and gets the least credit amongst Dolphin fans.

Why can't he wow anybody as an elite receiver. He's only 23 and I've certainly seen some flashes of an elite player. He definitely has physical ability to be elite and I highly doubt he has reached his ceiling like so many people seem to believe.

Man what an ATHLETE!!!! and the best part ..He's ours :hi5:
 
I have officially shut up about Ginn, and now am pretty excited to see his progression next year. I think a whole offseason training with C. Penny is going to do wonders for him.
You heard it right here. Next year he breaks 1,000 yards. I would even go so far to say that he will be close to 1300 when its all said and done.

So all in all, I eat my prior words. But it did take him awhile to come around. Maybe its just me.

He's done enough. I never liked the pick. I've been highly critical of him. But he's done enough to prove himself a valuable member of the team. I'm cool with you now Teddy Ginn. Your family still needs to be cut though. Granny can't cover anyone.

why is he a #2? and making an offseason splash for this masterful #1 you speak of (through FA or draft)would be the 1st time in parcell's career he has willingly done so.
 
Ginn has made some huge catches and explosive big plays. I'd like to see more consistency and I'm sure he'd admit that. He is slightly built and breaking free from the physical jam has been a tough adjustment for him. But he is breathtaking when he gets his hands on the ball. He's a good player for us and a nice piece in our mix at receiver.

Bess is the tough, find the sticks in the middle of the field, get open in a phone booth guy. Love him. Camarillo is as solid and consistent as can be. Love him too. London hopefully will emerge into a solid backup with size who can emerge in the red zone. But London does bring toughness and competitiveness that I am sure endears him to the coaching staff (unlike Hagan, who was the complete opposite).

And Ginn is the electric, big play guy.

The receiving corps has been a MASSIVE surprise to me.
 
There have been a lot worse 1-9 picks in the history of the draft. He will be a productive WR and team member for a few years to come and that is enough in my mind.
 
Other than week 1, when has anything bad happened when we went down the field to Ginn?

Imagine when Henne is the one throwing that ball. Ginn will be lights out in a couple of years. His work ethic is legendary.
