[h=2]The Miami Dolphins may not be looking for a quarterback in this months draft, but Kevin Hogan may be someone the team should consider.[/h]To be a successful NFL quarterback you don’t necessarily have to be the most athletic person on the planet; you don’t even have to have a rifle for an arm or be the biggest guy in the huddle. What you do need, however, is experience, accuracy, and most of all, intelligence.

I’ve had a crush on Kevin Hogan since he got to Stanford. With his size, athleticism, and delivery of the football, he reminds me a lot of former Stanford star Andrew Luck. You may have heard of him. And like Luck, Hogan was successful in Stanford’s pro-style offense.Stanford’s Kevin Hogan possesses all three of these traits to be a good quarterback at the next level—his resume speaks for itself.

In the middle of his freshman year at Stanford, Hogan got the chance to play due to starting quarterback Josh Nunes going down due to injury. Hogan capitalized on this opportunity and the rest was history.

After replacing Nunes, Hogan led the Cardinal to three-straight victories over ranked opponents—including an upset victory over No. 2 Oregon—and later became the MVP of the PAC 12 championship game, which Stanford won over UCLA 27-24. More impressively, Hogan led Stanford to three PAC 12 championships in four seasons.

For three-and-a-half seasons, Hogan gained experience crucial for his development at the next level. He didn’t have the luxury of playing powder-puff’s either. No, instead, he faced top-level talent in one of NCAA’s best conferences. That’s hard to turn a blind eye to.

From an accuracy standpoint, Kevin Hogan is everything that you want out of a quarterback. Despite a slight hiccup in 2013 (completing 61 percent of his throws), Hogan was impressive posting completion percentages of 71, 65.9, and 67.8.

Hogan is accurate. He performs well out of play-action and has the ability to throw receivers open. Known for his tremendous touch on the ball—specifically on deep passes—Hogan provides playmaking ability. More attractively, Hogan was apart of a pro-style offense at Stanford where he excelled and grew accustomed to throws he’ll be asked to make at the next level.

No thanks. Roll with what we got and if it doesn't work out, we'll likely be in good position to draft a top QB next year.
 
I don't like his pocket presence or lack of poise. Looks all too familiar and I wouldn't go down that road again under any circumstances.
 
I simply don't think we need to try to fill next years potential holes on this team before we look at the holes and depth needed NOW!...

No to QB, No to Kicker, and No to Wr, - in this years draft...

This is the only option now (FU Matt Moore...I hate you...LOL). God help us.
 
If im gonna draft a qb give me brandon allen...of course that will probably cost you a pick by end of round 3

I wonder if miami will use a late rounder on the doughty kid...

I'm still looking WR in this years draft, just probably not early.....eventhough i love Doctson. We lost 2 guys in Jennings and Matthews and don't have a lot of depth or size.

I'll never understand the hatred of Matt Moore. The "backup QB who pushes the starter through threat of replacement" myth needs to die. It doesn't work and it isn't a real strategy. Either Tannehill has it or he doesn't. No backup QB will change it either way.

If miami took michael thomas at 42 assuming emmanuel ogbah and cody whitehair were gone i wouldnt have a problem with it...42 is a little rich for tyler boyd but i doubt he sees our 3rd rounder
