It's sad I think 95% of us wanted Quinn at that moment of the draft, but now 90% of us are glad we didn't take him. I believe Cam is going to do great things in Miami.

I don't want to use the word hate, but I can say I am thrilled he is gone, well soon to be gone.

Keep in mind though, Cam said himself that Quinn was not as accurate as Beck and that you can't teach accuracy, you can only make an already accurate passer MORE accurate.

whether or not Quinn knows his offense is irrelevant. He can't get the ball deep to receivers who are running straight down the field. and if he puts all his muscle into it, he misses them by a mile.

your right.

but doesnt it feel atleast a little good knowing that we dont appear to be SO STUPID after all...well at this point in time...i know that clayton report doesnt count for much, but hahahahahaha to all those busters that said we we absolutly stupid for taking ginn, instead of quinn....

Congrats, big guy.
I think you should have been more specific. It was Most Impressive/Disappointing in training camp.

It's way too early to be talking like that.

What I find funny is that it seems like you are writing the guy off based on how he did in mini-camp. I mean I enjoy reading that he's struggling, but my God man. You got to give rookies time.

I watched Quinn play under CW and really don't see anything other than an

average QB. He has had the HYPE but I think the HYPE over shadowed his

actual talent. He may be servicable in the NFL, nothing more.

Remember he was basically, well average with not much media coverage untill

CW became his coach.????...................!

IMO Miami made the proper decission in passing on Quinn.

PS: If I'm wrong, won't be the first or last time .

This thread is about Quinn, right? Well, Quinn isn't a Dolphin, so therefore it belongs in the NFL forum since we're talking about another team's player.

Don't get pissed off because you put it in the forum that it doesn't belong in.

I agree, I knew what you were saying clearly.

And being curious about how Quinn was doing, I can vouche that this isn't some hyperbole from the big media outlet. I perused some online Browns boards to see how he was doing in camps, and I have to say, they were actually brutally honest that he looked terrible. Many even agreed with Cam/Mueller's/Philosophy decision in the draft (taking another player, then grabbing Beck or Quinn most likely if he still would have been there in the second).
