    While I am not unhappy with the moves Ireland has made in free agency so far, I do hope that he is able to provide more help on the offensive side of the ball, Right now the Dolphins still need to upgrade their right guard and one of their tackle positions. The need of a top tier TE is getting desperate and adding a veteran RB certainly would be a nice touch.

    I am sure Ireland will draft players at these positions, but counting on rookies to come in and produce immediately on the offensive line or at the TE position is always a huge question mark. Bringing in veterans to hold down these positions until the rookies are ready to take over in a few years is what I would like to see from Ireland. Hopefully the Dolphins have the cap space left to fill some of these positions.

    Rookies can contribute at all of those positions. If not, then teams would try to fill all their holes through FA, which never works. Rookies start successfully all the time.

    May just mean she appreciates the sentiment. Or just means they'll give the Fins a chance to match.

    The Dolphins, Jets or Bills need to sign Bernard Pollard. You can't just let a proven Patriots-killer go off to a team that won't ever play the Patriots. It's imperative he remain on the Patriots' schedule.

    Can Reshad Jones play free safety? Would love to bring Pollard in for obvious reasons, been a big fan of him since he was going through the draft process, the fact that he's a pat killer makes me love him even more.

    I love a tweet that a friend of mine just sent out. Something along the lines of "Ravens fans should trust their GM who just 'lost' guys he basically found working at Taco Bell after the draft. Guy is a genius."

    Jeff can alway go to work for Progressive if this football business stuff doesn't work out. He is quite the pro with bundling and cutting and creative economics.

    A lot of the credit should go to whomever is structuring the contracts. Being able to upgrade to younger players without much cap affect is a very good thing.

    Heard the Titans were shopping Nate Washington for a late round pick. He still has good hands, can get deep and can make some acrobatic catches. Hasselbeck arm not the strongest to showcase his talents, he had pretty good chemistry with Locker when his shoulder wasn't being dislocated. Could be a good fall back plan IMO.

    Bah.

    Welker might as well be as old as Mr. Clean. We don't need him, he brings nothing different to the table.

    Plus, eff that guy.

    Addressing needs with YOUNG payers in free agency for the defense, which is allowing us to be the youngest team in the league, allows us to go full metal jacket on offense this draft..with 5 picks in the first 82, You can find hi level talent who can fill those offensive needs..

    We're in good shape.

    If the market softens on him Fin, that guy has juice for 2 years....2/11...do it....

    revenge factor too....hell cut Bess save the 2.5 or whatever it is and allocate it to WW.....

    It would be nice to spread those cheater f%ks out once for a change and have THEM guessing running around like Miami does...

    FWIW, I think the writing is definitely on the wall for Bess....
