I'm predicting a trade down to pick up additional picks. I think the much publicized and long rumored interest in Gurley is all choreographed to entice someone to trade up. And if a team below us is in love with Gurley (maybe the Cowboys), but wants to call our bluff, I can even see us drafting Gurley and then trading him. When you look at our needs and the depth of talent in the draft, we can

We just spent a 3rd rd pick in this year's draft on a WR in Kenny Stills. We will not be drafting another WR in the early rounds.

And as soon as Randy Moss started whining in New England, Belichick showed him the door. My issue with Wallace is the me-first attitude. He was mad at his number of targets after his first game as a Fin, which was a victory. And he has this blow up in the season finale this year, after a 93 yard TD drive that gave us the lead. I think just about any coach is going to have a real problem with a

Something to remember, guys in the slot are almost always going to get more YAC. They are running lots of crossing routes and curls that generate YAC. Guys lined up outside are running a lot of comebacks, digs, and deep outs that aren't designed to create many YAC opportunities. If Hartline lands with Andrew Luck, as it sounds like he wants to, he'll be a very productive WR. He's smart, runs g

PFW rated Davis as the 61st best player in the draft. Mike Mayock doesn't know everything. Remember, he had us projected to take 340-lb DJ Fluker at #12, even though he would not fit in Philbin's scheme at all.

No. He was 25th out of all tackles (left or right) who played at least 25% of their teams' snaps, of which they were 80. So, 25th out of 80. On the same list, Martin was 76th out of 80.

Not true. He allowed mor QB disruptions per game after the move to LT. And his worst game was the final game of the season.

Rolling the dice on Martin isn't just about Martin. If you roll the dice on Martin, and he sucks at LT, like he did last year, it can ruin the offense. If you can't protect the QB's blind side, you are in a lot of trouble. Lane Johnson thinks he is going as high as #4. A number of "experts" having go as high as #5. Two months ago, who would have foreseen this? The Feb 5th Walter Foot

It's not about giving up on Martin, or calling him a bust. But, he showed no sign of being a good enough pass protector to play LT. He got beat by fast guys, and he got beat by power guys. And here is the problem. If you commit to him at LT, and he still isn't a good pass blocker, then it negates the adding of offensive weapons and delays a real evaluation of Tannehill. Bad LTs can kill a team. A

Filling the LT hole with one of the best pass protectors in the league (1 sack allowed last season) for a 2nd round pick is something Dolphins fans should be happy with.
