Atogwe looks like the best bet right now. Not much else out there.

In the 1972 AFC title game, Griese was 3 of 8 for 70 yards and zero touchdowns. In the Super Bowl he was 8 of 11 for 88 yards and one touchdown...

I think those wheels are in motion. I predict the NFL will either own or become a partner of the UFL within a year or two.

Thanks for the reply, BDH. I didn't feel like that controversy was worthy of more space on my blog. If you wanted to read about that story, it was...

I'm on the fence as far as their futures, so when asked to rank them, I had no choice but to go on who had the better season last year. What...

I understand why people are offended by the question, but I think the attention has been overblown, which is why my coverage of it has been...

Great question, and I guess the answer depends on what your definition of a No. 2 is. Some people don't consider a slot receiver as a No. 2, but...

Keep an eye out on the blog for something like that. I just come on here to hang out and talk football. Your question sounds like work, and it's...

Way too soon to tell. The Dolphins just announced it over the weekend and when we have access to GMs and coaches, asking about Randy Starks is...

1) Good question ... C.J. Spiller might be him now. Devin McCourty has skills there, too. 2) A fourth-rounder for Lynch maybe, a...

I liked the pick, but I would have liked Dan Williams even more. You have to think the Dolphins preferred Williams when Jeff Ireland described how...

Toronto doesn't look promising at the moment. The driving force behind moving those games to Toronto (multi-billionaire Ted Rogers) passed away,...

This one has me confused, like many other folks. I thought Smiley was a valued contributor. Overpaid? Yes, but nothing outrageous, and not at a...

First off, let me apologize for not being around more often. I'm still trying to find an offseason routine. I'm also still waiting for things to...

Not that I'm a trained scout, but I like Arrelious Benn from Illinois and have heard good things about him, even though he had a bad combine...

No real inside scoop aside from what's been out there. But there will be plenty to write about in the coming days.

The Dolphins don't believe receivers are worth the going market value and refuse to pay, whether it be in the form of draft picks (in a trade) or...

Dansby himself put the Dolphins on his short list, and the Dolphins have a need at that position. This thing has Charlize Theron legs. Maybe...

The concerns are legit, but probably not enough to eclipse his talent. A team will take a chance on him and be confident they can correct his...

I wrote a whole article on it, which is the article you're referring to. So I can only assume you read it. All of the reasoning is in there....

I disagree that the NHL lockout was a disaster. I covered it then, and I thought the NHL handled it the right way. Losing a season had a cleansing...

I just went there at your suggestion. It looks clean and the design is sharp. I'll be sure to follow it. Thanks for the heads up.

I agree with you. The owners do have serious leverage, and I think they're willing to sit out an entire season to prove their point, a la the NHL....

You "don't see it"? You can disagree that the Jets won't be the team to beat. But not being able to understand why other people would think the...

1) Bo Jackson 2) Absolutely 3) Maybe Vick, not Thigpen. ... Hard to say about Parrish. A whole new coaching staff will make that call, but...

Sanchez could go either way, but I think he has the mental makeup that will allow him to maximize his abilities. That said, I see him similarly to...

Under that scenario, I think the Dolphins would have an asset to trade.

I'm not saying this to be a shill. I'm not that kind of guy. But there's so much information on the ESPN draft page ......

Of those options, I like Dez Bryant at No. 12. He's the best combo of need and potential on that list.

Thanks, finyank13. The good people at ThePhins have made me feel very welcome. I like it here.

I highly doubt it was intentional. There's nothing to gain by pretending to screw up and damaging your new vice president's reputation around the...

Since GridIronKing was kind enough to tackle, No. 1, I'll take No. 2 ... I don't see that as possible. The Dolphins thought enough of Thigpen...

My apologies for getting to this late, but I went into deep cover after the Super Bowl. I'm sure you've discovered the list came out over the...

First off, I feel compelled to remark that those are some impressive photos, miamiron. As for your question, I can't think of anybody off the...

Incredibly nice of you to say that. You guys make me feel welcome here. To everyone, I want to apologize for not being around more often...

To be as transparent as I can ... With the Jets still alive, I have not been able to submerge myself in the draft as much as I normally would by...

Happy we can have this discussion. Jets fans are certain that I hate their team and that I'm a Dolphins homer. I do believe that what sunk the...

Great points on networks shooting what we're used to, but they are pretty innovative with the overhead cameras and whatnot. I assume that the...

I highly doubt Tebow goes in the first round, but it takes only one team to fall in love with a player for it to happen. You know he's going to...

I'm thrilled you enjoy having me in the neighborhood. I hope I can remain a worthwhile contributor. Here's a direct link to the blog:...

I haven't been able to determine what the root issue was. The Buffalo News speculated on Sunday that it might have had something to do with Ralph...

I don't think the Gailey hire was bad. It just chapped Bills fans because they got their hopes up for a bigger name. Gailey might turn out to...

I want to apologize for not being around much this week. I was dispatched to the Jets facility this week for previews of the AFC Championship...

Glad you enjoy the blogs. Some people still don't get what blogging is all about, but I think we do a pretty good job. It's all about having fun...

There are a bunch of issues with the Bills, a perception you just can't win (a lot of coaches with strong reputations have failed in the past...

No need to thank me. I enjoy this. I should be thanking you for using one of my posts as your sig line.

Those were some cool numbers you shared with the class. I got wrapped up in them for what felt like hours. I stared at them so long I thought one...

Disagree. Flacco's hurt. That gift-wrapped first-quarter lead allowed them to mask it.

Do I have a say on this issue? I advocate an unlimited number.

Purely my opinion on each of these ... I believe Tony is the guy. He has a classic coach's charisma about him. He's a hard *** and the players...

I think he can be a solid No. 2. But dozens of players like him enter the league every year. The Dolphins could do better.

I'm not sure I follow. Then again, it is 1:15 a.m. But a team can tag only one player a year.

Nothing would surprise me. I take that back. I think in 10 years I'd be surprised if another one of these scandals didn't happen again in one...

I'm not sure. I was under the impression Friday, but it could have taken place Thursday.

I would like to get into as many forms of the business as I can, but I've never had any radio aspirations. I do enjoy the guest spots I do on the...

I'm not going to defend bad calls. But the games aren't rigged.

I didn't say that was the reason Brady played poorly. I said it was something to consider and then relayed an anecdote of a player I once covered...

Contain yourself, Samphin. You're being way too kind. Terms like "know-it-all" and "bonafide expert" never should apply to me. I give it my best...

Tough one ... In that either-or situation I'd go with McClain. I think he's going to be special and the type of player you can center your defense...

The only time I can use the word "slim" in regard to Vince Wilfork. If the Patriots don't lock him up, they'll franchise tag him.

I have a few calls out on that. I'm checking around to see what the likelihood is. Hard to say right now, though.

That's an awful lot to digest. I might have to absorb this and get back to you. But my general impression of the Dolphins O-line is that it's...

I don't recall writing anything negative about the Pennington signing or bringing Williams back. I favored the Pennington signing (I was...

I agree. I haven't seen any NFL quarterback ability out of Pat White. ANY position? I don't think he's big enough to play anything other than...

Sorry I got to this one late. My honest answer would have been that both are possible, but I hadn't heard anything ... and I hadn't heard anything...

Us reporters don't get to sample the stadium fare too often. They feed us in the press box, but it's not the same stuff you guys get. We usually...

I don't mind the roof. I'm for anything that makes a stadium look different. The Dolphins stadium is pretty generic. The roof gives it a signature...

My pleasure. This is a cool site. You guys make it fun.

Because I love it when people whine about not getting their questions answered like I'm a trained monkey who owes you this information, let me...

The Bills and Lynch have to be at the end of the line, but not because of Jackson. Lynch has a ton of baggage and he's one of the most immature...

My money is on Al Groh. http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/9063/groh-sounds-eager-to-rejoin-with-parcells

The old Dolphins fight song is atrocious. During the 2007 season, when you're dropping Super Bowl references after a Jay Feely field goal makes it...

Devin Hester made some otherwise sane-thinking people drunk over the possibilities. And two years later, Hester wasn't effective enough to be his...

Unfortunately, I don't have any insider info on what the final straw was with Matt Roth. I was generically informed it was a numbers issue, and...

He's a great return man, below average receiver. He has value to a team, but ninth overall for a kick returner is a monster bust.

The NFL doesn't release the names of the alternates. Teams can if they want to, but they refrain.

1) Don't have one, which I'm thankful about because it makes my job a lot easier. I'm from Cleveland, so I grew up a Browns fan. But when they...

I think Polite had a great season and will be a factor for the Dolphins in the future. The problem is, only one fullback makes it. So I just...

You asked this question long before I was assigned this analysis, but I'm getting to it just now. I filed this AFC East season wrap-up today....

I wouldn't totally dismiss Pennington coming back for 2010. If he wants to keep playing, Miami might be his best opportunity. He won't be a...

Thanks so much, Mari0k! I don't expect people to like everything I write, but the fact you can disagree and still want to read is important to me....

If I had to rank the biggest needs, I'd say WR, ILB, NT (always can stand to upgrade there in a 3-4 system unless you have a star) and maybe S.

I'm going to try to knock out these questions a few at a time. Sorry I let them stack up a little. I'll be back on later tonight for some more...

The Dolphins have been trying to find someone for a year. They just haven't found one at the right price (draft position, trade value or salary)....

Thanks for your kind words, Shaunm. Not sure why you're so easily offended about the coverage. I think I've been wuite complimentary of the...

This is a team on the make. They took some lumps this year, but a lot of young players received invaluable experience at key positions....

I think you might have me mixed up with someone else. I don't recall ever being critical of the Dolphins' personnel moves. In fact, I liked the...

Good morning, everybody. This is my first time signing on, and as you can tell by the timestamp it's a little early (about 5:22 a.m.). Actually,...
