I Trust the Professionals

I understand you sentiment, but no one is above questioning. And that is a healthy thing overall.

Things might have been better if people would have asked more questions about the war in Iraq. I am not saying we should or shouldn't have went there. But asking questions is healthy for everyone.

 

Well, OP has a very strong point, but yes, no one is above questioning. As mbmonk points out, if someone had asked questions about Obama's murky background, maybe we wouldn't be where we are now.

 

I'm gonna laugh when our first two picks don't amount to ish! Our OLB crew is weak.......can't believe Parcells passed on so many players.

You really think that Parcells knows what he's doing? I don't, why would all these other annalists have certain players ranked where they are if they weren't worth the spot? I doubt Parcells is some draft guru, I would be willing to bet if the majority of people say one thing, it is for a reason. So all this "trust our picks" crap is just bs.

We failed to get a BIG impact player once again.....thanks Parcells

 

Did we just go there? This isn't POFO. Sometimes we take it too seriously. I'm sure you're not equating losing lives in a massive war with drafting a DE instead of a FS. But still,could we NOT do this on a Football forum?

EDIT: Same goes for you Agua!

 

Cam Cameron was nominally a "professional."
Wannstedt and Speilman were "professionals."
None of them could find their own butts with both hands and a flashlight.

 

Yes, please.

 

i'd call Brandon Marshall a big impact player, even though he wasnt drafted yesterday or today, it cant be discounted and the FO made it happen... and the fact we recouped our number 2 this year is a huge bonus. plus we added Dobbins.

there are still chances to get impact players in this draft. Eric Norwood is still out there at OLB for example.

 

Great points there. I use to be like alot of these guys and get my panties in a bundle if we didnt get the big name guys. Well that doesnt always get you where you need to be. In all we dont know who might be traded or released still down the line, as with how these players improve or come along. We have a good solid young core so some of you guys have to chillax a little.

 

I'm talking this years draft. You keep on building Pracells up.....gonna laugh when he leaves us after this year and all his picks go to ish

 

Totally agree with this. I totally understand the frustration. I happen to be thrilled with the guys we got. I think we got two starters in Odrick and Misi and Jerry is going to challenge. I do think hes already better than Donald Thomas.

This is a very good draft for us, esp when you throw in Brandon Marshall. And we aren't done yet. We still need to pick up a guy tomorrow that can contribute.

I feel good about this team.

 

^That.

 

I'm sorry but I don't understand how any true Dolphins fan could say that.

 

^^ ok buddy, who is making the calls then? That's right BILL PARCELLS
talk about reading comprehension, where did I say Henne, Marshall etc... aren't impact players?

 

I think he is trying to say that a lot of people thought those guys were gonna amount to ish when they were drafted.

 

I'll take Parcells opinion over Kiper and Mayock any day. what makes them so credible? plarcells is a football man not a talking head on ESPN/NFL network...

 

Look I wouldn't be upset about picks that I see as bad choices if I weren't a true fan. I happen to be in the minority that beleive Parcells is slowly choking our team.

People will say, but he brought in Marshall and picked Henne....who in their right mind wouLdn't have brought Marshall to the Fins given the chance, not a genius move. He should have signed Bryant last year before the Bucs did, so it's about time he brought in a impact WR

Just because we share different opinions, doesn't mean I'm not a true fan

 

Has this years draft played a down for the Miami Dolphins yet????

Last year people were ripping the Hartline pick.

Give them a chance before killing them and Misi and Odrick are very good players, just watch them.

 

Chocking our team? as I recall we have made major strides since Parcells took over a 1-15 team.


You are a true fan without a doubt! I just think maybe you should wait and see before you jump overboard ............

 

PEOPLE, this is a discussion forum. That is what I'm doing, stating my opinion. I don't expect everyone to agree. But there is no reason to gang up and act like I'm an idiot for having my own opinion.

I just don't think that theses picks were the best we could have done for the team this year. Don't get me wrong, I HOPE all the picks pan out and our defense is just nasty. I simply don't think that they will

 

Maybe it's how your presenting your opinion?

 

You stated your opinion, I stated mine, like you said its a discussion. I don't recall calling you an idiot, simply stating my thoughts.

If you don't think the picks were the best, who would you have taken and why?

 

Took the words out of my mouth, ascii...

 

Holy cow people. IMO I think we have had a great draft. We aquired 3 on defense in 2 rounds and deepened our o-line in the third. What more do you want? The D players that we drafted 1 is a LB (from the Chargers trade) and 2 fit the hybrid mold that they were looking for to replace the 2 we lost. We bolstered our K/P game, our LB core and our O-Line. Sounds good to me......

 

it all depends, at #12 before we traded or at #28 after the trade? Either way, I personally think there were better players to be had in either spot.

 

I agree with you sans the bold ... care to elaborate?

 

After seeing what has come out of some of my bad picks,
I too prefer to leave the picking to the professionals:
Unprofessional Pick

 

The LB from the Chargers we got is said to be a Special teams demon.

Ireland quote

 

I think the biggest issue is the unknown. There's so much not known (outside of the FO) right now. New D coordinator, 2 new linebackers. These picks may not make sense now, but by August they will.

It's like going on a blind date. You ever see Deuce Bigelow?

 

That makes sense. I thought he was talking returner.

 

The LB we got from the Chargers is "supposed" to be a good special teams player from an article I read on my iPhone. I can try and find a link to post.

 

Awesome movie. The wooden leg made spit soda all over the place.

 

No worries man NJ straightened me out. Wasn't sure what you were referring to. I agree with your assessment btw.

 

Couldn't find the same article so I went to the Chargers site.
