    The Dolphins have made quite an impression so far this off season after winning 6 of the final 9 games.

    Fair? Unfair? Pretty accurate ranking considering how the off season has gone?

    The lower the better. I want this same team that finished 6-3 to be pissed and motivated.

    I think you could take roughly 15-28 and threw 'em into a hat at this point.

    I don't think we should really be behind the Jaguars, but if ESPN did a post-draft power ranking as well I wouldn't be surprised if we move into the late teens as I trust Ireland's drafting.

    Free agency hasn't really lived up to the expectations of most fans so I suppose this is fair, since it's only a drop of four since ESPN's final regular season power ranking (http://espn.go.com/nfl/powerrankings).

    20-28 would be more accurate...

    The biggest thing I took away from it was this...

    What if the Colts draft Andrew Luck and have a Peyton-esque 3-13 season to gain the #1 pick next year to get in Barkley trade? The potential down the line ramifications of that could be huge for that franchise. Wow! Lucky dogs.

    You think Miami will get so many impact rookies they catapult from 28 to the teens?

    Not out of the question the Rams end up with 3 top 10 picks from Washington over the next 3 years. Couple that with the Rams possibly having their own top 10 picks in 2013 and 2014...Wow, they would have to royally **** up in the draft if 5 top 10 picks don't turn the team around after 2014.

    I finally found something more useless than mock drafts.

    Adding a number one WR, a starting QB and a starting RT in the draft would really change things IMO, and all three are possible with 8 draft picks and the ability to trade down from number 8.

    28th? that is a little low....I would say around 20th.....we have a pretty good defense, and we just need a few weapons on offense we will surprise. I guess for a pre-draft ranking I could understand this, but I think we build through the draft.
