DOLPHINS: Draft Redux

Fri Dec 18 20:17:15 GMT 2009

 Imho, Fins like players who can do more than one thing. So at one end of the spectrum you have Ronnie Brown who can RB, QB, WR and probably return punts. At the other, an overpriced WR who cant catch passes and only atheletic quality is speed.

Thus Pat White as a part time QB, WR, possible RB has value in The System and fits into The Plan.

Garbo...wondering if Larry Seiple has a son or grandson with Larry's punter, QB, RB,WR skills.

I think the only reason to keep Pat White is if he can be a real weapon in
the Wildcat.  If he ever got to that point, then it wouldn't make sense to
use him in a tradional QB roster spot.  Instead, you would have 3 QB's plus
Pat White.
