Here's a truly radical idea for draft day. There doesn't appear to be a consensus player that Miami wants at #1, there seems to be 3 or 4 guys they like, and we're all aware of the cap crushing contract that the #1 pick is going to get.

Soooooo, when they're on the clock, let the clock expire and don't make a pick at all. The Rams can then go the podium and make their selection within their time frame or Miami can go to the podium. And the same thing with continuing pick slots (as happened to the Vikings once a few years back when the clock ran out on them). If the Phins wait 2 or 3 positions, they still get a player they like but take him at say position 3 or 4 and don't pay him #1 overall pick money.

Excluding the PR and media flack that would follow, maybe not a completely crazy idea? I'm not implying they should do this, but food for thought.
 
this was brought up already an like most ppl said the agent for that player we take will hold out for the top overall money so it wouldnt even be worth it
 
This has already been brought up and shot down in another thread!
Sorry
 
Sorry - hadn't seen it brought up anywhere here before.

Trading down? Great. Problem is Miami needs a dance partner to do that and it seems highly unlikely.
 
yea buddy I hate to break it to you, but I already posted this idea. It was radical when I posted it...
 
hahaha... I think alot of teams would of pullet that off over the years
 
I've never seen the thread about this but i have thought of it myself, i really just dont want that huge cap hit for a player that has never played before!

Make sure your 1st pick is a good one and don't finish last anymore!!!!!
 
I love people who keep saying this and thinking they're saying something new, or something that would actually work. It's humorous on two levels.
 
here is where your concept sucks.....we lose the pick if we dont make it within the time limit. we dont just move down to the next spot. if you are gonna post a thread like this then at least find out what would happen if the time did run out. forget about that idea

ps i have seen this thread posted like 5 or 6 times
