over or under 6 wins?

Over 6 wins. I doubt we start off 0-7 again this year.

Of course this means we find a starting RG who can pass block; we resign WAKE or he does not hold out; and we get that other pass rusher and also find a starting WR.

All that just to be over.
 
Under 3-13

Moore is good enough to win some games but with no receivers it will be tough. Also with no real passing threat defenses will focus on Reggie more which will get him hurt.
 
I also agree the draft won't have a huge impact esp if our 1st pick is a QB who won't play this year.
 
i dont think the draft would have a huge impact whether we drafted a qb first round or not. we can't just go sending 3-4 rookies out there with the big boys and expect exceptional results.

Your right, the draft is not going to drastically change the team. The draft might find one or two starters this year(like Pouncey last year), but it is more about building a team that can win for the future. While they may not have major impacts in their rookie years, I would expect that every pick in rounds 1-3 contributes in some way. You might even get some mid to late rounders contributing like Gates(on kickoffs), Wilson(Special Teams) and Clay(as a TE late in the year) did last season.

You also have to consider that those rookies that couldn't have a big impact last year, might this year. While you may not expect much from them in year one, the guys we got last year should take a step forward. Guys like Thomas, Gates and Clay are likely going to have bigger roles this season.

Dolphins will be at least 9-7 this year maybe even 10-6. Look at the numbers. We lost 5 games by 3 points or less. Sparano was clueless. If we can sign Wake, keep the defense intact and maybe run the ball a bit more, we will win at least 9 games.

Garrard will have a better season than Manning if his back remains healthy. that's a prediction. Remember Garrard? he's not the fresh name or Manning but he can move, if he's healthy he will throw for 3500 yards and 25tds. He will remain accurate.

Phins have been hit with terrible luck and I think it will start to turn for them.

Now go ahead and bash me. Come'on. I'm expecting it.

Not going to bash...but we lost our best receiver.

5-11
 
At this time with the current roster, I say we go 5 wins at the most. After the draft with proper picks at wr, te, de, mlb, s. Maybe more than 7 wins.
 
depends on how the team responds to Philbin and Co. Look I understand we had a very soft schedule in 2008/09, but Sparano and his staff did a good job planning and managing the game (plus getting career years from a lot of people and very little injuries) and the team responded. He just couldn't maintain it cause he had an outdated way of thinking.

Let's see how Philbin gets the team going. Mike Smith was supposed to have a long term rebuild project in Atlanta. Yes I understand he got Matty Ice, but even then people didn't think that team had the talent to compete for a few years. Thomas Dimitroff is a very good GM, but you cannot deny the coaching job Smith has done in his time there (of course you can argue that Atlanta is either underachieving or overachieving depending on how you rate their roster)

And that single draft was the main difference in the 11-5 Jaguars, who made the playoffs, winning 6 fewer games in 2008, and the Ravens winning 6 more and making the AFC Championship game. The draft is major, all I'm trying to get across.

ireland is not going to draft players who could make that kind of impact.

If he passes on Tannehill it will be more of the same linemen and def. wannabes.

3-13 AT BEST.
 
I'm almost 99% certain, that we will go with decastro now.

nanee pretty much took any WR out of the equation at 8 IMO. if they pass on tannehill, it will be decastro.

sadly, these guys seem to think we throw a bunch of second tier talent on the field and be competetive.
 
What about a bad WR in Naanee takes us out of a running for a premiere WR in the top 10?

Sorry, but your delusional if you think that signing effects a single thing we do in the draft.
