Makes sense to me for JT and any possible suitors. If some stud pass-rusher slips falls into our laps, we won't need JT. Same goes for any other team.
I think we don't go for the OLB unless Matthews falls to #25. We have already picked up a very credible pass rusher in Wake. I think our 3 biggest needs in this draft in order of importance are: NT, CB & WR. Picking out of need or the best talent is always an element in every draft. I think Jason has a better than even chance of returning to the team & has several good years left in him to play & much to prove to his Miami FanBase. The guy wants to go out on top & as a Dolphin. We shall see. Only the draft will tell.
I disagree. We have a starting NT, we need a backup and someone to take over in the future but we don't need a starter this year. And our first round pick should be a starter. Also we have Paul Solai and we do have Kendall Langford who I think could easily go up 10 pounds to 300 and play NT. Parcells supposedly likes his NT's pretty agile and around the 300-310 range. We do need a CB. We could use a starter and our CB's are all free agents after this year. We could use a WR but we have Ginn, Camarillo is coming back, and we have Bess ands London. WR is not as high of a priority especially with Pennington tossing the ball. We really could use an upgrade at LB. I like Channing Crowder but he's not a great pass rusher. And I'm not sure what Akin Ayodele does for us. I haven't gone back to look at games but I don't remember him doing anything special on the field his stats aren't anything to write home about. Our pressing needs, where we could use starters are CB and LB and maybe WR. We also could more depth at CB, NT and OL. I'd really like for us to address CB and LB with our first 2 picks. Something like Darius Butler and Clint Sintim would make my day.
Langford is a perfect 3-4 DE. He stays at that position as long as he here in Miami. NT I don't see it.
I'll give my same old refrain... if we sign JT, I trade Porter immediately for a 2010 2nd rounder and 6th rounder. JT is most useful where Joey is anyways, Joey's stock is high, but he's gettin' old and has wonky knees. If we could still have a great veteran pass rusher, but gain picks in next year's draft, I jump on it.
