What were the Dolphins thinking???
 

OK, Quinn got a lot of hype but he seems the perfect fit in Miami...they gamble and stay at #9 and he falls to them...AND THEY DON'T TAKE HIM????
Unbelievable!! How much do they pay these guys??

Yeah...Brady's falling like a rock! And the pick of Ginn was ridiculus....his ankle is still not healed after 4 months....not a good sign! I should say that I hope Quinn does well in NFL..I won't hold it against him that he went to ND,lol!

I believe that Ted Ginn Jr will be one of the top 3-4 contenders for Rookie of the Year, along with Calvin Johnson, Adrian Peterson, and Dwayne Jarrett.

King: I agree he's a great talent...but not on 1 wheel! Just being cautious.....Peterson will suprise people,imo,and I hope Jarrett is all that he was at USC:D

Good luck! This may actually benefit Quinn but how do teams that need a QB pass on him? Cleveland I could understand but Miami?? Quinn could drop into the 20's now...I think he will in fact find himself in a better position but boy...strange pick by Miami!

.... yeah he is a game breaker but i believe quinn was the obvious choice.......the dolphins are idiots, they could gone after d.b last year year now they are trying to get an obvious broken down trent green?

Well, you know that there are trade talks behind the scenes...maybe the Bears get a package from somebody with Quinn and another frontline player!

Name another 175 pound guy with a bad ankle who has contended for Rookie of the Year.

These short, small, fast slot recievers/returners are always terrible high picks. Hell, Dante Hall is the best of this bunch over the past 10 years and he went in the 5th round. The guy he's replacing, Wes Welker, was undrafted. Taking a smallish slot reciever/returner with a high first round choice is a joke.

It's a lousy pick.

i can't believe that quinn wasn't taken, who knows where he'll get picked now. i don't think anyone saw this coming, a huge shock--he must be physically ill at this point. so much more amazed at this then at houstons miscalculation in skipping bush last year!!!

This is fun to watch.

but why ginn? is he the one who made the video and sent to everyone in the nfl, showing he was 'back'?

unless your name is brady.

Quinn is a class act as shown in his interview a few minutes ago, I'm not concerned about him but I simply don't understand Miami. Cleveland still may make a deal and get Quinn. By the way, Loved my Skins' pick! Come across the middle against us next year...

Ginn, the one with substandard hands. Please, this kid is quick as ice, but he's never going to be a solid nfl reciever. Quinn would have given them stability at qb, but instead they take someone who really is not healthy and when speed is your main attribute, thats not good. The dolphins screwed the pooch. Saying all that though quinn is taking it very well. By now i would have gone berserk and would have been destroying the green room and telling the espn reporters to gfy .

my son (and fellow 'skins fan) asked if they would take quinn if he was still available, i said no, they needed help in their secondary-so thrilled that they got that kid, love to see those lsu players do well.
i know cleveland is moving heaven and earth trying to move up, they want quinn-good luck to them.

BABA, there is a reason that other top recievers dont kr/pr. THey are much to valuable to risk to injury. Ginn has great speed great quickness, and very shaky hands. Going purely on wr play, he was not the bets reciever on the team. This was a huge huge reach.

I had it Johnson, Ginn, Jarrett

I think Ginn is very overrated.

Bingo. They noticed what the kid for Chi town did for the Bears last year and what Dante Hall had done for the Chiefs. The position has become an impact spot. And he is your two or three receiver. Having stated the following, I would not have done this. I think an arguement could be made that they might have waited and still got Ginn.

I think u have it right. Without Hester, Chicago gets nowhere close to the Super Bowl. Dante Hall almost single-handedly carried the Chiefs for a while. Desmond Howard was a Super Bowl MVP wasn't he? Eric Metcalf anyone? Not only has the position become an impact spot, guys are much more able to come in and make an IMMEDIATE impact from those positions. A guy that plays strictly at wide receiver, say he catches 80 passes a season. That's five a game. Maybe he gets about 8-10 carries a year on reverses. So u have around 90 times a season that he handles the ball. A guy that handles it on punts and kick returns and also as a receiver has many more chances to make an impact on a game. Last year, Donte Hall handled the ball 115 times. The year before that, it was 154 times. Devin Hester handled it 79 times last year and didn't even play on offense. I would want my most exciting and potential game breaking players to handle the ball as much as I can get it in their hands. In my opinion, Ginn has as much chance to be an impact player as Johnson or any other player does.

The Browns made out like Bandits. They had their 3rd overall pick down to Quinn and Thomas, and took the big man Thomas, but also ended up landing Quinn later. They have 2 of the top 3 picks in this years draft in their eyes, and this has to be one of the biggest steals of all time.

Brady Quinn showed that he is a class act, and I know he will be a very good QB for a long time in the NFL. I am a NINERS fan, but go BROWNS as well!!!

Not Me....brianwspencer became a celebrity cuz a me!:eek:

You can use whatever u want in your signature, I don't take care. I just find it funny how you guys thought it was the "cool" thing to do and that you looked sweet if you took something that someone said and put it as your signature. Whatever floats your boat.

The Dolphins apparently fulfilled this year's quota for dumbest pick. Although they didn't graduate with the marks the Texans did last year, I still can't believe they didn't pick Quinn. Now I'm no Quinn fan and personally I think he's way over rated, but he was the one to take. No doubt about that...

As a Bills fan it is extremely tough for me to defend the Dolphins but more than likely they came away with a QB in the second round that they had evaluated to be just as good as Quinn. Plus they got the second receiver in the draft who wouldn't have been there in the 2nd round. It is easy to sit here and say they made a dumb pick but in a couple years if Beck is a better QB than Quinn it will have turned out they were smart to skip Quinn especially if Ginn becomes a solid NFL player. OK, now that I'm sick to my stomach from defending them you can all resume your bashing.
