Dolphins interested in Boldin?

Well Chris Clemons was the fastest Db at the 09 combine.

Check this one out:

Names

Pat White #1 40 yd dash Qb

Korey Sheets #3 fastest Rb

Lydon Murtha #1 fastest Olineman

Kory Sperry #8 fastest Te

Vontae Davis #3 fastest Cb

They do seem to have some preferences.

I'm such a GM geek if we do manage to acquire Boldin for a #3 my first question is not "who would we have drafted' it is "where will Ireland and Gaines find a gem to replace that #3 pick"?

I'm thinking Grice Mullens or Tsoumpas, if either pans out that makes up for the #3 pick surrendered for Boldin, RGM as a kick returner could make Irish look like a genius again.

 

Yep, I've got twitter opened in a different tab and when a new tweet happens, the tab has a (1) or however many new tweets have been made since I last checked them.

But gag..the Big Slow as WQAM's draft guru..

 

Big Slow has been going on and on about John Meyer's fling with Jessica Simpson, dude is just the biggest blowhard..:ralph:

Not seeing it, Gmen rarely trade up when it costs too much, if the Jags want a #3 to trade up from mid teens to the #10 I'm not sure they do it.

 

Just had a realization that made me chuckle hope it does you as well. You know what team always drafts on measurable's?

Spoiler

Oakland Raiders

 

doubt if bolden will be a dolphin
too much down-side: age, injury & contract

 

......

2 injury prone players start on the Oline and Don Thomas did not develop due to injuries and what have you that makes quality Oline depth critical and I do mean all the way down to practice squad depth.

Well, in 08 when Ginn didn't return kicks he had his best season as a Wr, if Grice Mullens or the other 3 players can knock Ginn outta the job then I could see him being a Wr only and having 1 player who returns kicks and punts.

The beauty of the CFL players is they have two years of practice squad eligibility, meaning we can stash them there if they feel they can develop them.

 

What I would like to see more than anyone replacing Ginn on KRs if for us to find a better option on Punt Returns. Bess was Horrible last year.

 

I'd like to see them tryout either Hartline and/or Clemons for PR next season.

 

Just looked on PFF (They lump PR and KR) they have him rated 274 out or 291..... I don't see how they could do any worse

 

That is why we already have 4 players who will challenge for the Returner job LS.

-Ryan Grice Mullens
-Tristan Davis (practice squad)
-Kory Sheets
=Julius Pruitt

If we add Boldin, either Ginn returns kicks and punts, or a Wr is cut to make room for a player who can do that job, in an odd way Greg C's future with the Dolphins hinges on Ted Ginn returning kicks if Anquan Boldin is acquired.

 

camp fodder.

 

Yes, you can find a starter in the 3rd round, but the question then becomes "Are you going to find a starter on defense as good as Boldin is at WR?". Possible? Yes. But the chances are good that the answer is no, and I'd rather play the odds and have a top receiver like Boldin as opposed to a servicable starter.

 

Basically All this Boldin talk requires you to assume 2 things.

1) You think we will compete within the 1-3 years he is here, for the Superbowl
2) You do not think he will be injured, his injury if he has one will be minor (1-3 games) and won't cost us our run, or you think our Receiving corps can get by without him if he goes out for the season.

If you don't believe in both of those things, this trade doesn't make sense to you. If you do believe those two things.

There really can't be an argument about his productivity, or his play style.

I'm curious though for some of the people who think this is a bad idea. If he didn't have an injury history, or more specifically his injury chance was no higher than the normal rate in the league, would you still turn down the deal?
