Why are Fin's Meeting With Young?

[trainwreck]

Found this on KFFL, seems kind of odd. Vince would NEVER last until #16.




Dolphins | Team looking to meet with V. Young

Alex Marvez, of the Sun-Sentinel, reports NFL draft analyst Gil Brandt, of NFL.com, said Saturday, March 25, on Sirius Satellite Radio the Miami Dolphins have scheduled a visit with University of Texas QB Vince Young in South Florida April 9 and 10. The Dolphins, who declined comment about Young, host about 20 to 25 college players on pre-draft visits. It still seems unlikely that Young would be available when the Dolphins select at No. 16.

I'm not so sure that Vince will be snapped up by the time the Dolphins pick. I cannot imagine them drafting him even if that happens, but why not take a meeting with the guy?

Really? I didn't know that. Seems like it would be a waste of time considering
the Fins pick at #16 and we don't have the ammo to move up.
They could be evaluating other talent.
Thanks for the heads-up though Finsletmedown.

Well, the plane ticket/ ride comes from somewhere, but to me its wasted time if there is no way you would pick that player.

Looks like we actually may be interested in Young.

It still seems unlikely that Young would be available when the Dolphins select at No. 16. But by lining up a pre-draft visit, it appears the Dolphins might ponder trading up to select Young if he slides like Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers unexpectedly did in last year's draft.

Such a move wouldn't immediately impact Culpepper, as the Dolphins have shown they are willing to make a long-term commitment provided he can regain the form that made him one of the NFL's top quarterbacks in 2004. But it's understandable that the Dolphins would want to explore the option of selecting Young and grooming him for the future should the opportunity present itself.

You just cant pass on clutch guy with a 938. winning percentage

Not that it means anything, but Kordell Stewart went to the Pro Bowl with Mularkey as his OC

Culpepper is the man in South Beach now so Young doesnt matter
