That would be good if we get Coles and the center from Baltimore as well

Hey Phins fans . .. I've been a Dolphins fan for years, but never followed the off season much. Being in Canada, i really don't know what are good sites to go to for draft coverage. Been watching some of the combine stuff on Nfl network.

Love the Wilson pick up.

What are some good draft sites for NFL? (like Draft Express for hoops)

Dolphins sign Jake Grove- 6"4 300lbs Center! Seems kinda expensive for a injury prone Center.

Miami signed former Raiders center Jake Grove to a five-year, $29.5 million deal that includes $14 million in guaranteed money. In one year, the Dolphins have built a formidable front line.

so far no big splashes from parcells and the gang. maybe in the draft we will go WR.....or maybe we make a play for Anquan Boldin, which i would like very much. We need CB n WR very badly though

Cards Shopping Boldin I say we go for him! I'd trade a first round and a future pick. He's what we need.

TO didn't fetch 1 1st rounder, neither did Randy Moss.

Dolphins signed CB Eric Green from Arizona - multi year deal, no $$ released yet.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3975091

So hes the other starter now ? Is he a true starting quality CB? He played 13 games for Ariz last season and started 9.

I see a good 3rd CB but I dunno, I'd rather have someone else as the 2nd CB. Hopefully we get someone good in the draft. I still hope Jason Allen gets to play.

my best case scenario for the draft

1- Vontae Davis
2-Clint Sintim
2-Alex Mack
3-Herman Johnson
4-Chris Baker (NT, Hampton)
5-Domonique Johnson
6-

JSB · Post #32 » by **JSB** » Mon Mar 16, 2009 1:05 pm

would you go after a vet CB that got released like Mcalister from BAL or Lucus from CAR?

ExplosionsInDaSky · Post #33 » by **ExplosionsInDaSky** » Sat Mar 21, 2009 10:07 pm

I would. Mccalister, Lucas, and Cromartie would all be a great fit here in my opinion. However If we go with Vontae Davis in the first round I truely do believe we will end up with the best overall secondary player in this draft. Yes I believe he is a TALENT man.........And a steal if we get him at our spot.

Well Satele got moved alright. . . traded to Oakland this morning.

Miami will receive a sixth-round pick from Oakland and the two sides will swap selections in an undisclosed round, a source close to the situation told ESPN.com's Bill Williamson.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4008096

Edit . . .

Just checked Oakland's picks. They pick 7th in every round except the 5th where Atlanta gets their pick (and the 6th as well now). They own no one else's picks but their own. So Miami swaps probably 4th round or earlier and moves up 18 spots.

well that was unexpected for me

yeah I thought having some starter quality depth was a good thing. I guess this deal all depends on which pick we are moving up on.

Satele just never fit the Parcells mold and did nothing to impress Sparano ( a former OL coach) to keep him. By the last 4 games of the season he was playing Center PT for us. I think it was a good move to get a pick and better position ourselves in the 4th round. Just because the previous regime spent a 2nd round pick on a mistake of a player doesn't make this a bad trade.

I expect Beck to be moved later on as well. If we are lucky Wilford would go for a 7th rounder in training camp as well. Rodrique Wright and Quintin Moses could be goners as well.

I thought Wilford would be a good WR with us but man was I wrong.
