Omar is reporting that L Robinson WR from Dallas is in our sites to replace Marshall. Speedster right?

He had 11 TD's on a team that has Dez Bryant, Miles Austin, Jason Whitten, and Demarco Murray.

Pretty good I say.

Would be good if we had an elite physically dominant playmaking WR to compliment him with. oh wait.

The guy is definitely a great athlete. At the 2007 combine he ran a 4.38 40 and had nearly a 40 inch vertical. He also placed in the top 10 of every event. At 26, he is just reaching his prime and certainly showed great progress last year by catching 54 pass for 858 yards and 11 touchdowns. I like his upside so I hope we get him.

Essentially replacing Marshall with Robinson and 2 3rds makes a tough pill much easier to swallow. Just a teaspoon of sugar makes the medicine go down.

Davone Bess averaged 78 catches in 2009-2010, and saw his targets plummet in 2011. He can easily add 20 catches to last year's total. Brian Hartline was on pace for a 65 catch season in 2010 when he broke his hand. He saw his targets plummet in 2011. He could easily add 20 catches to last year's total. Clyde Gates had 2 catches in 2011. He needs to add 30 catches to that. We have got nothing out of the 2nd TE the last two years. Move Clay permanently to TE, and get him 30 or so catches. Reggie Bush had an 88 catch season in New Orleans. You could easily give him fewer carries, and get him 20 more catches.

So, you don't need 100 catches from one guy to replace Marshall. Spread the ball around and get more guys involved. If you sign or draft a guy who can come in and catch 50 balls, at 15 yards per catch, you've filled your need for a more downfield receiver.

And by the way, the draft this year has a ton of big receivers, many projected to go in the 2nd or 3rd round. I can't remember if it was Omar or Armando, but one of them tweeted the other day that the Dolphins love Tommy Streeter. And with our strong Iowa connections, don't overlook Marvin McNutt.

He'd have been my top choice from the beginning on Tuesday. Young...fast...just emerging. Won't mess up your cap.

I believe Robinson signed with someone already? If not, he would be a good choice.

Streeter is a big man, and can sure run for a big guy. He has great hands, but....like Marshall, drops balls that he should have caught.

I think with time and practice, he could be a good #1 WR for Miami. I really believe he could be even better than Marshall, and, if I'm not mistaken, trouble-free.

He may go in the 2nd round, but if he doesn't, Miami can either draft him there or with one of their 3rd rounders.

There are a lot of good WRs in this year's draft.
