MERGED: Dolphins Select Wright in 5th Round

Just saw John Clayton in ESPN reporting that we absolutely got a steal in Manny Wright for a 5th rounder. He expects to see us be able to groom this guy into something good in the next few seasons.

And he said we could build our 3-4 defense of the future around him.

Just think about the potential of our future.

Manny Wright
Channing Crowder
Matt Roth
Travis Daniels & Will Poole :drool:

We now just need a young stud safety.
 
man what a steal im just glad we didn't have to give up a 3rd or fourth for him. He's big 6'6 fast 4.8 in the 40 and fits right into our DT tandem and in the near future

Got back from work like an hour ago and hopped on diablo 2...just got off to check some news and wow what a move! God im so happy we got a damn good steal in this Wright kid for the lower 5th round...i hope he comes in and contributes right off the bat

Now that's funny. I've seen you on the East Server. But geez I haven't played for months. I just wish I had known you were a Phins fan!
 
5th round is a freakin' steal in my opinion. And we had two 5th rounders any way.

Now we have to get rod wright in next years draft.

Well, we don't know where we will be picking, but I'd rather get one of the stud LT's like Marcus McNeal or D'Brick.

God, I hope we don't draft this high, but how good would Matt Leinart look in a Dolphins uni?

We have Manny. We're not as desperate for a young DT anymore.

:lol: Sure.


Where's your buddy Dominizzo? I'm waiting for his "Wright is the next Pat Williams thread ":lol:

Nah, Pat Williams could never run that fast

What if Carey turns out to be a pretty good LT? I personally would like the season to play out before I decide what the team needs. Geez we haven't even started training camp for the 2005 season and you are talking about the 2006 draft.
I wonder which high school prospects will be playing for the phins in 2010. :rolleyes:

I didn't bring it up, someone else made a statement about who we should get and I responded.

Hey, you know who else is thinking about future drafts??? Randy Mueller and Dolphins scouts.

You want to build a dynasty like New England? You always have to be looking to the future.

...and point to me where I said I don't think Vernon Carey will be good.
 
What a freaking steal!!!!!! We get Wright for what might as well be a 6th rounder......since we will be picking 32nd or 31st after going to the SB this year.:D
On the down side though, isn't Wright another one of these guys with a checkered past?? Have we brought in ANYONE who hasnt been in trouble with the law?? We have some good players but we have to keep our fingers crossed that the wheels don't come off. We may end up having to make a "The Longest Yard Part 3" since all of our players may end up in jail. :lol:
 
Although I am praying for the best this is really a gamble. This is a classic boom or bust type. Bench pressing 250 16 times tells me he won't play this year. He is probably a project who we are hoping to put in next year. If Saban can get this guy to play up to his potential then he is one of the best motivators out there. Let's hope it works out
