Four names for your consideration:
Vince Young. Reggie Bush. Brad Smith. Jason Taylor. Now to explain, in order.
Brad Smith.
This soon to be ex-Jets handyman would look good so many ways in a Miami uniform. He’s a quarterback by trade who averaged 7.9 yards per carry and would be a perfect Wildcat triggerman. He’s enough of a tough, possession receiver to make Miami’s rotation there. And (major bonus) he averaged 28.6 yards on kickoff returns with two touchdowns last year.
Depending on the price, I think this possibly could be a good signing. It's a bit interesting for all he can do and how we might be able to use him and we all know that we could use some help in the return game.
Young is 30-17 as a starter and is entering his prime at 28
:escape:
Philadelphia might part with Kevin Kolb, but the price would be very high — reportedly a first-round draft pick
A big NO!!!!

DisgustipatesubscriberYeah, Brad Smith I thought wanted more receiving snaps. We're not really in a position to give him that. I've heard enough opinions here on Vince Young to last a lifetime but he's redundant in this..you can run Wildcat concepts with Young.
Jason Taylor would be a huge ****ing waste of time. He's finished as a pass rusher and not as good as Koa Misi other than maybe at dancing.
Reggie Bush is a mediocre rusher and there really isn't a heck of a lot of evidence that we or anyone else is going to get more out of him than the Saints have.

Brad Smith lost half of his value this off-season with the pushing forward of kickoffs 20 yards. He didn't return punts in NY so as of now he's a below average WR and an above average WC trigger-man.
20 yds? I thought kickoffs were moving from the 30 to the 35? Also, cover men will only be allowed a 5 yd running start, rather than the 10 plus they had before.

It's probably true, but I never heard of Smith wanting more snaps. I was just basing my opinion from what I saw of him on the field. Actually, I kind of agree with him. I thought the Jests didn't use him enough. You can run WC/spread type concepts with Young and he does intrigue me a bit, but I also like Smith for his possible return abilities and those reverse runs, etc, etc, etc.
Totally agree about the others.
