They are under the constraints of the last year of the CBA. Tin probably knows the numbers better than I do, but I can assure JT knows what they can offer. He's up there because he's pissed that no one will talk to him. Are you willing to tell me no team would pick up Taylor if we were to drop him after the draft?

Disagree with the rip on JT. His agent made him do this to show is value and make sure the Fins don't treat him poorly.

They add a dynamic but are not full time starter, do it all players. With a #12 pick I would expect someone to be on the field the whole time, not situationally. I would want an OLB who can stop the run, cover and rush the passer (not necesarily their rookie year). I would be happy taking a dynamic role player in round 2 (even though we might have missed on Pat White).Big Dawggnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1624420118244025974.post-33005841655104976122010-04-08T07:17:49.000-07:002010-04-08T07:17:49.000-07:00That's kind of odd.

Maybe Spiller can be more like a Percy Harvin or maybe he can be a bigger Darren Sproles. IMO--I see him as more of a real RB than Harvin or Bush. If I had to compare Spiller I'd go with Sproles at this point.We Have Playmakersnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1624420118244025974.post-35642554595958742402010-04-08T03:07:24.000-07:002010-04-08T03:07:24.000-07:00Don't you love how Armando does this TMZ sensa...Don't you love how Armando does this TMZ sensationalizing crap... Maybe he was hiding up in a tree outside the Jets camp snapping pictures of fat boy wooing JT. Folks this is why Parcells does not like Jason Taylor. He's a glamor boy. He doesn't want to build a team with the Dolphins he wants to go find a super bowl trophy so he can show it off on the battle of the network stars. I bet Armando drove his Vet all the to NJ so he could be there with his glamor buddy when they put ink to the paper. Screw JT, let his bad karma sink the Jets. Time to move on.

The trifecta might have more of an overhaul on their mind than I originally thought.<br /><br />In a weird way i could see us trading our best offensive player Ronnie Brown off of an injury at a decent value, a 2nd round pick. Then trading a 4th for Marion Barber and drafting C.J. Spiller at #12. Followed by trading Ted Ginn for a mid round pick. Hilliard's role would decrease as mostly a STs player and Cobbs doesn't make the cut. Ricky, Barber and Spiller would be the main backs with Pat White being more involved. There aren't enough touches to go around.<br /><br />This could be Ricky's last year.<br />Ronnie is a FA next season in a weird uncapped year.<br />The Dolphins are going young.<br />We drafted Pat White. Say what you want but he's not going anywhere yet.<br />Ginn isn't their type of WR. His speed is great but the intangibles are lacking.<br /><br />I always felt this would be the year for big change and the next level.
