15. Dolphins: Christian Ponder, quarterback, Florida State.
The Fins seem to swing and miss on second-round quarterbacks every offseason, so it’s time to get serious.
Ponder would be an upgrade over Chad Henne in terms of accuracy, smarts, athleticism, consistency, and touch.
He’d take over as the starter at some point in year one.

I disagree with him taking over as a starter at some point in year one, unless Miami wants to regress in the process.
Even Bradford's rookie year was no better than Henne last year.
I seriously doubt Ponder can do something that Bradford can't.

I don't think we are going anywhere with Henne anyway, so I would be comfortable with a rookie playing.
