A friend of mine and I were discussing this earlier and I wanted more opinions. Do you think Miami will move Pat White to WR? Like the pick or not I was hoping the kid would show some promise. Obviously he didn't. For some unknown reason he was uncomfortable and he look like he was playing scared :ohno:. Do any of you think he would have value at WR? Next year I think Miami will go with Henne as the starter and the back ups will be Pennington and Thigpen. I think Pat White would make a better WR than QB in the NFL anyway so why not give it a shot. What do you think?
Will Miami try Pat White at WR?

I said that from the second they drafted him that he needs to be moved to WR!!!!

Active Roster
If you can consider Pat White at WR then anyone on this team is eligible. .Anyone that can run...and has held a football in their hands will be eligible..forget anyone that actually has some experience.
I hope they do simply to keep him on the roster. But even with him listed as a WR, they should still use him as a QB sometimes in wildcat formations. I would like to see him be a utility guy on Miami - throw passes, catch passes, run the ball, etc. Just get him involved on a set of plays designed to feature his talents.

Seriously?
So now MIA should at least give him 3 years to get 'it' at WR? So a 4 year project?
If Ginn can't get 'it' what makes you think White can? His deep experience at the position?:crazy:

Pat White did not want to be considered a WR, he wanted to play quarterback. That's why at his pro day, he told the masses that he would only throw and not catch passes. I say, put him at whatever position helps the team. If it's at wide receiver than put him at wide receiver. If it's water boy than cut his *** (we could find a cheaper water boy). IMO if Pat White wants to play in the NFL, he'll do what he told. Even if that means changing positions.

So with that said, what in White's career says he can run routes and catch the ball?
Pat White is a second round draft pick. You don't spend and then abandon him after one season. Get him in the weight room. Get him to put on 8 - 10 pounds this offseason. Get him catching passes, running the ball, and of course passing at QB. Get him more involved in the offense in 2010. He might be a playmaker for Miami in 2010.

Might, Hope, all the same. Don't mean a hill of beans. What has he shown that says he can be a success at WR? Also, I believe he has 'tiny' hands...that don't bode well for someone who tries to make a living in the NFL.

Good perspective. I agree that we cannot just put this kid in the past. Too many people on here are done with him after he takes a helmet-to-helmet.
I think you mean by almost "ANYONE". Way to go slick. :facepalm:

I'd bet Pat Whites hands aren't any smaller then Davone Bess's hands
