Now I KNOW that you all will not agree with me on half of this stuff, and im pretty sure no one will 100% agree with me. But here's what I think:

1. Do NOT draft Jay Cutler.
Taking Him 16th overall is not a wise move. Miami should take eithier MICHAEL HUFF out of Texas, JONOTHAN SCOTT, also out of Texas, or WINSTON JUSTICE out of USC. They should then proceed to select a QB rpelacement in the 2nd round, maybe later.

2. Sign a veteran QB to teach the rookie the ropes. I think JON KITNA or STEVE MCNAIR would be decent choices, even trying Sage wouldn't be terrible. This is the Cincinatti approach, and look how Palmer turned out. If you don't want get a veteran, use the Eli Manning Approach and give the rookie the team, and wait for results. Saban is a smart man, he won't do that.

3. Sign key Free Agents like OG STEVE HUTCHINSON out of Seattle. Paying for somone like CB NATE CLEMENTS wouldn't be a terrible idea eithier. QB JOSH MCCOWN may be worth the money, as Mularkey likes to have mobile QBs, and Mccown is young, and decently mobile. JERRY AZUMAH and JAMAR FLETCHER are cheaper options.

4. Make way for the young-sters like TRAVIS DANIELS, WILL POOLE, CHANNING CROWDER and MATT ROTH. They all have a ton of potential to help out this team.

5. Make way for Wes Welker. IMO, he has a lot of potential. He isint afraid to go over the middle, and his hands are solid. Hes quick, smart, and a great route runner. Definately should be in there on all 3 WR sets.

With this approach, your line is very good, with Hutchinson and Scott or Justice added. Secondary improves, and the young guys help out an aging D. Also, with someone like Mccown or Mcnair at the helm with a good running attack and strong O-Line, it doesnt take a miracle worker to make plays. Instead of looking at our offseason as "let's get the franchise QB", think of it as "Lets fix our faults, get a QB that will get the job done and can develop into a great starter".


I probably am forgetting stuff, and i know .04% of you here will actually find this smart, and ill get about 200 replies mocking me or with one specific part quoted with a ":sidelol:" under it, but these are my opinions. Im not the coach, so it doesnt matter, but i just thought id share.
 
I agree with most of your post, and I'm really starting to like the idea of bringing in McCown. Not to rely on him being the future, I'd still draft a QB. But I'd like to bring him in to compete and see what he's got.
 
for the most part I agrre exept on the signing on Nate Clements he is over rated. I Live in Buffalo and have watched him play for a few years and he gets beat deep at least once a game. We dont need a guy who will cost us so much bcuz he wants to be the highest paid in the league!! We can go elsewhere and find better and they wont cost near as much
 
I think one of the most glaring issues for the fins the last five years is lack of QB and this needs to be addressed seriously. I think we need a guy that can win and isn't at the end of his career or a career backup. We need this position upgraded badly. Some things you wrote I agree with, Hutchinson, getting the younger players more experience. I honestly don't know what will happen with this team,but I do know there are 31 other teams trying to upgrade their team....well, I'm not sure about the Bills. But we will be in line for Hutchinson and about 5 other players and if we are real lucky we could land 1. What I'm trying to say is coaching will be the difference in the Dolphins and Saban knows it and has made some solid moves the last two seasons.

I think we will have some new names this year but it won't be a lot of top names. We will be better, but I think wildcard and second in the division.
 
First of all if Cutler falls to our pick (which he won't) we better get him. He is going to be good. Everything else I agree with.
 
This is one someone's opinion of cutler. This guy knows his stuff, ill tell you that.

jay cutler, qb vanderbilt- jay is rising up a lot of people's boards, but stays stagnant on mine, as many of you know. he has solid, but not prototypical size at 6'3 and 215 pounds. strong and lively arm, but poor mechanics result in a high-release point that sails his passes up and through the intended target. passes off his back foot far too much, even when not being pressured, another result of bad mechanics. piss poor pocket presence; flushes out at the slightest backside pressure, forces throws into coverage and makes bad decisions when pressured. plays like a scolded dog, essentially. his biggest plus his NFL caliber arm... other than that, hes a subpar prospect.

well who wrote it?
 
sorry to triple post, but i forgot about MANUEL WRIGHT. That kid needs some playing time.
 
Jamar Fletcher???? Lets hope he never sets foot on this team again. Kitna I would not be interested.McCown is not better than Frerotte, and we are trying to compete this year, not rebuild. Weve already got Lemon developing, and hes better than most of the free agent qbs out there. Steve Mcnair would be a huge acquisition for us. To hell with all the rumor talk, this guy would be here to prove something to Tennessee, and to win a championship. I think we should resign Junior, but not as a starter. Hed have to understand that. Play like a Jerome Bettis role. Call me crazy, but for some reason I feel like next year will be the big year for us. We might not win it all, but I think we can get there. Steve Hutchinson would be a great oline pickup, followed by Clements. Id rather get DRE Bly. Corey Chavous would be a nice safety to pick up from Minnesota. Most of you hate the idea, but Terrel Owens would make us a Big threat in the NFL.
