Polian.." Dolphins doing a really good job""..some think "Mitchell is the steal."

Where can I buy Super Bowl tickets? It's a lock!

Ugh now we'll be lucky to win 4 games.

Sounds like a broken sarcasm detector.

I like Mitchell, but Polian's endorsement does nothing for me. The game left him a long time before the Colts left him, and he's even worse in his current role.

Were you referring to the team or those new features that would land South Florida a SB? :lol:

If we can get Patterson back our D is set except for middle linebacker..

At this point, just guessin here, I Think Zack Martin, CJ Mosley or Ryan Shazier at#19 are in play.

You know some guys can recognize individual talent but be crappy GMs.

I think if Mosley fell to us, they'd go for him. Not sure they'd pick what essentially would be a guard at 19, that would be a need pick all the way through, and Hickey has said he prefers to go with BPA. I think one of the top TE's may also be a possibility or maybe even Brandin Cooks, considering they really liked Tavon Austin last year.

Man, how great would it be if DJ really steps up and becomes a dominant pass rusher? Our D would be sick. Wake needs someone else to get good pressure and free him up from double teams and RB chips, etc. A guy with his potential and physical attributes, could really be something special for this D. It's still a big IF, but that could take the D to another level, but i guess, at this point, we'll just have to hope.

Is Mitchell going to be playing 1-technique or 3-technique or both? That's one thing I'm confused by.

polian just loves quick dts. he almost had an orgasm talking about aaron donald after the combine.

Polian loves Mitchell. Had him ranked number 6 on his list of free agents. Not sure how much that means, but it's good to hear I guess.

One of the main reasons why Mitchell signed here is because of where he is going to play, which is the 3 in the 43.. He was adamant that this position is where his skillset will explode..he wasn't happy playing nose I can tell ya that..

Also didn't play defense til his junior year in college.

I hear what Pate is saying, but for events like free agency, Polian is not he kind of guy who will spit out info unless it has been checked and double checked..I'm confident he did extensive film work.

This kid is all business, you can tell what kind of player we want..it's all about the passion and willingness to work at their craft, both Albert and Mitchell are in tremendous shape right now..they both have strong work ethic and our lean players, that's plus plus imo..

Here's what I'm thinking, jared Odrick, you better step up your workouts and your game if your gonna beat this kid out..

If you can't beat this kid out, myself personally I would shop him, I don't need a former first round pick in a rotation, I can find depth, but if I can get a high pick I might think hard about that.

Thanks, I just caught that vibe in his interview.

I don't see Patterson coming back to Miami but it would be nice. I just think he would be too expensive. They saved $5M off of him so we'll see.

Should be a very good fit Here. I aghree that his skillset will play bettr in our system. How much better, we'll have to see

Even if he were serious, we deserve it.

With so many injuries, I think the best he can hope for is a one year prove me deal.

Bill Polian has been flat-out awful on ESPN the last few days.

Wasn't aware of injury history of Mosley; elbow, hip and shoulder.

Seems like a high pick for a guard in Martin, but I would be hopeful that he can play guard for 2-3 years, play LT if Albert gets hurt, and take over at LT when Albert leaves. Not very sexy.

Have you seen our schedule? Im not sure I believe with any upgrades we make this offseason that were going to win more than 8-9 games max... Do you think otherwise??

Home: Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots, New York Jets, Kansas City Chiefs, San Diego Chargers, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Baltimore Ravens

Away: Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots, New York Jets, Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars

I see use splitting evenly within division so 3 loses there, Losing to Denver, GreenBay, Chargers, KC, and Chicago (8 Loses)
Winning: 3 division games so 3 wins there, beating Minnesota, Jacksonville, Oakland, Ravens, Detroit (8 Wins)

So again next year were sitting outside the playoffs with a mid teens draft point... Again *****ing next offseason... I know things can change but this is how i see it right now..
