    Lots of guards already gone, Asamoah, Saffold, Schwartz, Beadles.

    I wholeheartedly agree, though the staff refused to play Thomas at guard last year. Here's hoping for a major coup from the guy.

    I'd be so siked. For the % of time he played, he was incredible this season. Right there with Grimes. If te two of them stay healthy here, it'd be a devastating secondary.

    Richie Incognito would be a good fit at guard

    i would really like patterson to comeback at a paycut. i also agree with vertical limit. you cannot build a winning franchise just through free agency. eventually the players drafted have to step up and make an impact on the team.

    Considering his connection with John Benton, I've been guessing this was a reasonable possibility for the past month or so. He's 33, but been healthy, and a decent stopgap for a couple of seasons anyway.

    It is picks like Thomas which basically led to Ireland being shown the door by Ross. I don't see Thomas being an NFL caliber starting Offensive Lineman. In fact it wouldn't surprise me if he is cut from the roster before the regular season begins this year.

    Hopefully Hickey will be more effective in drafting early round picks than Ireland was.

    Little older of a player but still solid and would be a nice stop gap. Most importantly, he's a great lockerroom guy and would be a great veteran mentor for the younger players.

    draft day used to be my favorite but since Ireland took over that day was moved further down on my list. Slowly I will move it back up on my list.

    THE following should be legal dolphin fan holidays.

    OPENING DAY

    DRAFT DAY

    F/A

    Dan Marino's Birthday

    Lamar Thomas birthday

    Zach Thomas's Birthday

    national Tight end and full back appreciation day

    should all be holidays.

    Sounds perfect. Do you think we could get him for a 5 yr/ $25 mil contract with $15 mil signing bonus?

    Seriously though, can someone Photoshop their faces into that gif.

    The guy on the right is doing something that Philbin would do.

    I never understood how someone could like draft day more than opening day. I mean, we like football because of the game itself, no?

    For me its like Christmas. In fact, I get more excited about the first Miami preseason game then the first season game, because that's the real start of football.

    Draft day, usually, is nothing but hope and good vibes. Opening day is when things go wrong

    So, saw that Jon Asomoah has not signed yet with Atlanta. Had just visited. (NFL net bottom line).

    I'd really like to have him for a visit if he hasn't signed yet. Feel like we need one more OL signing (interior, imo).

    Also, will be interesting to see if a) we go after another DT; b) we go after another CB / DB; c) whether we look at ILB and RB in free agency; and d) wonder if we really are serious about James Jones? That could really add some weapons for RT. Now, if RT can just learn to throw a bomb, we'll be in good shape!
