OmarKelly Folks, I caution you to slow down on Jabar Gaffney talk. He could be coming to Miami to continue his rehab and training.

Fellas, Gaffney is just not that good a player, this is why I'd prefer to go with the youngsters.
Of course 4 gms into the yr we can shake things up, but still. -

What if he replaces Nono ?

Fella, we are rebuilding, let the young guys give it a shot. -
This would smell of the things Sparano did his last two yrs, we need to develop younger players D22, this is the reality of 2012.
I'd prefer Matthews or Fuller or even Marlon "butterfingers" Moore.
Way I see it, Bess/Hartline/Fasano/Bush is pretty much our core offense, the youngsters can see the field when it counts and let's see what they can do when it matters.
Clay/Thomas/AA/Thigpen are our lesser options in the passing game -

It is a balance , if an experienced wideout gets 17 more game experience that is a tangible reason to consider signing one , if it is the right one. -

Gaffney would be more welcome than Stallworth or Branch, IMO.
Gaffney-Hartline-Bess isn't suicidally bad, and if the TEs and RBs help out, that's at least a decent passing tree for Tannehill. Still means the position has to be addressed next year, preferably with a high draft pick and a good free agent. Dwayne Bowe and Marquess Wilson, Robert Woods and Malcom Floyd, something like that. -

do it!

I do not want Gaffney at the expense of Matthews. I know that sounds crazy, but I don't. And there is no guarantee that Matthews makes the practice squad like Omar implies. However, I might live with it if he is replacing Moore, and without a doubt if he is replacing Naanee.
-
And Naannee is a far inferior player. If it's Gaffney for Naannee (which I'd be it would be) that's a no-brainer. -
And the Draft is no sure thing either, teams move up, guys fall off, etc.
This is why I'd rather be proactive and just take our medicine. -
-
I'm looking ahead to the 2014 season. -
If you don't think he'd help Tannehill a lot more than having Naanee out there, well there really isn't much else I can say. I may as well talk to the wall.sports24/7, Ozzy, Anonymous and 1 other person like this. -

Dolphins worked out free agent WR Jabar Gaffney.
Gaffney was said to be holding out for a chance to re-sign with the Patriots once his thigh injury is fully healed, but that door may have closed with the Greg Salas trade. Agent Drew Rosenhaus reportedly expects either Gaffney or Dante' Stallworth to sign with the Dolphins shortly. Gaffney is a decent role player as a possession receiver, but Davone Bess already fills that role on a team going nowhere this season. GM Jeff Ireland continues to apply band-aids to what has been a gaping wound for several years.

If we do sign him, I just hope it's to replace Naanee.

Gaffney for Naannee makes the most sense and I'd hope they still keep Matthews, but the fact that people would be willing to risk the development of the most important player this franchise has had in over a decade (Tannehill) throwing a poor unit out there with him over a 7th round pick is a little ridiculous to me.

i welcome any wr vet that can help us win this year. we will get our youth and talent at the wr position in the next draft and we will need one or 2 wr vets to help our new wr draftees next april. what we need is wr vet help now!
-
Im not a gaffney fan, but the team has already given all of the youngsters the whole offseason and preseason to prove themselves and earn a shot, and they all fell flat on their faces. The team needs to give Tannehill all of the weapons that they can. A one year deal has no downside.
