The only hope I have is that they are bringing Feeley in as a backup, to replace Griese, and are still going after Henson or SOMEONE to be our starter.
Otherwise, this is just another case of the front office snatching despair from the jaws of hope.

My god are we going to find the bright side of every player out there, he wasn't even the backup on the Eagles. So he couldn't even be the #2 QB but of course he is good enough to be the Fins. What a F$#$@$ Joke, I realize (and pray) that h might be being brought in as a backup but then why trade for him. Just keep Fiedler. This is pathetic.

I would love this move if it was for a backup to Henson/Ramsey/Rivers/Whoever....
He had some success in 2002 when McNabb and Detmer went down as a result of a great system in place by Andy Reid, I dont know how he would do with a rookie O/C if he started, and i wouldnt like having him start either....

In the other Jeeley thread, some guy said that Spielman was on the radio and said he would compete with Fiedler for the starting job...i wanted then to also draft someone but its not going to happen...How pathetic!

I don't think we are going to even try to get Rivers. Either Pittsburgh or Buffalo will take him ahead of us
Personally I think the Feelly deal is reflective of our HORRIBLE front office. This deal stinks!

Proves what I've said all along, nothing at all has changed with this team.
I wish I could like another team, but I just can't get the Phins out of my blood. This is just a bad day.
Draft picks for a guy who can't even beat out Koy Detmer, it's not where he was on a depth it's that he couldn't beat out freaking Koy Detmer.

Actually, his situation in Philly didn't reflect his ability. He is better then their backup KD. Koy made more money, and was a established backup when A J was drafted. Koy doesn't have starting potential, and he knows it. A. J on the other hand, does. The Eagles intended on giving A. J a first round tender this year, that would have pushed his salary above Koy, and that would have made some people uneasy.
Bottom line, he wasn't going to be the starting QB for Philadelphia, when they are giving McNabb 115m.
In comparisons to Fiedler, he was also a 3rd string quarterback for Philly, and released. Huge difference, they were willing to give Feeley first round money, they just cut Jay.
A. J is a starting caliber quarterback. He learned 1 of the most complicated offenses in the NFL while playing for Philly, and when called upon, he executed shockingly well. He's a fan favorite, and that's not easy in Philly.
Ramsey on the other hand has never learned a pro offense. That fun and gun garbage they tried, and failed in Washington doesn't cut it in the NFL. Ramsey and Feeley are similar in athletic ability, but that's where it stops. A. J has proven he can execute in an NFL offense, and lead his team to the playoffs.
He will need some O-Line help though. And he has the luxury of Ricky Williams, something Philly never had. He also has a quick release, and makes average receivers look better.
I'm very excited about the trade, and look forward to watching him play, and giving Miami a decent quarterback, finely.
