As far as not having a No 1 WR on this team he doesnt seem to be too concerned. http://blogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports_football_dolphins/2009/02/sparano-get-off-ginn.html
You're just one the ball grapevine today, aren't you Crunch? Some of the articles left on the blog is just flat out hilarious to me: *shakes head*
I love how the poster didn't even know that Ginn wasn't drafted by Saban and wasn't the first overall pick.
I like Ted Ginn and I like Pennington but if Ginn had a strong armed quarterback throwing the ball down the field to him I think you would see him putting up better stats. Pennington is a good, smart quarterback but he has never been known to have a strong throwing arm and that may be holding Ginn back a little.
Being draft #9 overall is holding Ted Ginn back. He simply is not good enough to live up to that. Ginn is good, but not #9 overall good. I've said it many times. Ginn is what he is. An OK WR who will occasionally make a big play.
Well, Sparano was not going to throw Ted Ginn overboard, but he has made strides this past season. I'd like to see Ginn either return kicks, or for Sparano to simply come out and say Ginn is no longer on Kick Return duties, that role was supposed to help justify the #9 pick being used on him and last season Ginn fizzled out.
How can you say Ginn is what he is? He has only played for two seasons. He will not be the same player in 3 or 4 years that he is now. "He is what he is" applies more to players who have been around for a while and have established a base performance level.
I said "he is what he is" because that's what I believe. I think we've seen what Ginn brings to the table. He's and OK wide receiver who occasionally will make a big play. If he develops into more than that I will be the first to admit I was wrong. I hope I am wrong, me being wrong will be good for the Miami Dolphins.
You can't see that he's made strides from Year 1 to Year 2? You can't see that he'll undoubtedly make additional strides from Year 2 to Year 3? Especially considering that Year 3 is commonly when many WRs start to flourish??? Very short-sighted, I believe on your part. I'm glad the front office sees his potential.
That's your opinion. My opinion is Ginn is a young wide receiver entering his third year in the NFL. And that's something to be excited about. IMO.
