McShay and Kiper said they heard he could fall all the way to the 4th b/c of character issues. Would anyone be happy if we took him at 15?

Over the past few months, people here have said we should:
trade up to get him
draft him at 15
trade down and take him late in the first round
trade down and take him in round 2

Now some may say he may fall further than round 2.

This team doesn't have the luxury of wasting draft picks on character risks. We don't even have a 2nd round pick because we traded it away for another character risk. Let's stick to drafting players that don't need life coaches.

I agree. But--I would take him as the second player we select in the draft, after a trade down. He's boom or bust but it's been awhile since we had a QB with "boom" potential.

I would think Ireland has to take a QB fairly high, if he likes Mallett enough he'd take him no later then rnd #2 (trade down scenario), if he doesn't like him enough he'll already have a new QB on the roster by rnd #4....one would think anyway

I think it will be Mallet or Dalton, or our interest could be smoke??

I don't know about that but you'd have to be a sucker to want Mallet (I'm not trying to debate whether we should or not) and believe this crap about him falling to the fourth round.

If I was a team wanting him in the late first round or high second round, I'd put out this crap hoping some sucker of a team with a higher pick than me falls for it so I can snap him up with my pick.

Come on. All of these sucker traps are laid out during draft week for the unwary.

the character concerns are legit. look at ryan leaf--- all the talent in the world but a complete dbag and head case. mallet's talent is first round, but if he's got ryan leaf in him, stay away in the first, take him later and hope for the best. talent and taking someone outside the first are not mutually exclusive

I really hope Ireland does his homework on this guy. He has the potential to be a fantastic QB...or a horrible bust. I'm not convinced there will be that many good QBs in this draft. Mallett has the potential to be the best of the bunch...or not.

Mia1's comments caused me to look into Greg McElroy. Count me as someone who's intrigued.

God that's why I am talking about finaly starting to make believers out of non believer's.


Greg McElroy should be a franchise QB if taken by the right team.

ZERO character issues, ZERO baby mama drama, ZERO initial cost to invest in lol.

Watch out Monty, he's gonna dry-hump your leg like a 10 month old Labrador for agreeing with him.

So it is you Mr aholic, well now don't you worry little buddy there's plenty of dry humping to go around!

Mallet on the 4th round?

you kiddin?

I still remember some people here wanted him in the first round. Even trade up and draft him higher than 15.

ROFLMAO...Then he is gonna follow that yellow brick road!

no way he falls to the 4th. but given that some "experts" think its a possiblity, it's got to make you reconsider taking him at 15 for sure

Some team that really wants him probably came up with that rumor. you never know.

If the dolphins interviewed him, they should have an idea about his character.

I think we're fine with Henne. Need speed at the WR position

we at least he showed up to the meetings with the phins and didn't get "sick" (hungover)

Thank you, samsam, for making my point.

Mallet will be LONG GONE by the 4th round...In fact, I don't think he has a snowball's chance in He** of getting out of the first round.

We need to take a QB in the first round and no lower than #18 (if we trade down), JMO.

I'm reserving judgement on Mallet until he produces his long form birth certificate.

We all know he wasnt born in this country.

"When you suck long enough, you get a Hickey"

Just draft McElroy in the fourth and be done with QB issue.

Geesh stop losing sweat over it.
