Huh? How? We need a QB, WR, and FOUR offensive lineman. That's not what I would call a contender.Originally posted by nick19991

Also, unless we get Ramsey or (pipe dream) Peyton Manning, TO isn't going to sign here. He may come down here just to round out his tour of teams and drive up the asking price, but if you expect him to come here with a rookie QB or Fiedler...there's no way in hell he does that. Philly is beyond stupid if they don't snag him.
Our D has been overrated for so many years. What exactly makes our D great? They collapse at crucial times. Yes, I know they've carried us through must games, but they're not great as so many people continuously say.Originally posted by nick19991
First of all we don't need or want TO. We are a super bowl contender because we have a great D and a great RB. We don't really need a better WR yes we could us one but don't need one and we do need a QB but our o-line is not as bad as every believes. Wade Smith had his learning year last year so he will be alot better. Jamie Nails is a good run blocker. The rest our our o-line could use some work but they could also use a QB that makes a D not blitz all of the time.
He would get a kick out of that one. No way he comes to MIA unless we get Ramsey or one of our pipe dream wishes at QB IMHO.Originally posted by Section126
Somebody post a TO photoshop job of him in a fins uni over at his site.

Jamie Nails was a good run blocker. We have no idea if he will be again after the achillies rupture. We can't depend on him to come through like we have with Mark Dixon for so many years. Do you want Tim Ruddy starting again next year? I don't think so. I don't want McKinney at C either. Ruddy was injured all last year, and McKinney still couldn't beat him out, so what does that tell you about his abilities? Todd Perry didn't play well last year (although I think he could be formidable with good players around him), and Todd Wade might be gone in FA. That leaves (with Todd Wade gone) 4, or at the least, 3 gaping holes in our oline. Wade Smith will be fine.
As far as WR goes, yes we do need another legit WR. Chambers and McMichael can't do everything. If you don't have a decent #2 WR, the defense just doubles up on Chambers, and then you're stuck.
I agree with you. QB and OL are our top priorities. I would be happy to eat crow next year and see Derrius Thompson light it up next year, proving me wrong; however, IMHO,it's not smart to depend on him to produce after showing us nothing last year.Originally posted by nick19991
I think Derrius Thompson did good when he got the ball thrown to him which was close to never. Our D is great because no one can run on us and we can get alot of INTs. Our o-line will need some additions to it like Carey from UM. I think we do need another WR but there are more important issues like QB and o-line. The Panthers proved that you can get to the superbowl with a great D and a great RB.
