    Very True. Especially for the Dolphins with Saban only one year removed from the college ranks. I'm sure he has plenty of solid sources.

    Safest pick in the draft and will make whatever QB we have under center look MUCH better.

    Could you not bash Frerotte for one thread! Like come on man your getting as bad as nopony and death7star. Like are you 3 all friends or something. I think with Saban's drafting he would get the 1 QB who can be at least a little successful!

    Got no problem with that as long as we draft a Qb otherwise with Gus its like paying a swat team to guard your garbage can.
