    See my signature. Dolphins knew who Hilton was, they just decided to get cute and draft a project tight end who can't block, instead.

    I guess when you could have a guy like that in the slot who has blazing speed, soft hands, and can score 8 touchdowns for you while blowing the top off a defense on a regular basis, you gotta ask yourself if he's worth a 3rd round draft pick.

    And the answer is clearly no, since you already have someone on your team who plays the slot, runs a 4.8 40 and likes to run in the wrong direction after catching the football when he does manage to keep his feet under him.

    Ireland likes the slow methodical approach to building.
    Next thing you know, he will have to trade RT since his wife is distracting him.
    Either our scouting program is woeful, or Ireland is doing hid best to keep the Fins in perpetual rebuild.

    you miss on what's in your own backyard, because you're constantly enamored with the 'guano' being spewed from the arses of the Dullass Cowgulls… that's how

    This is the NFL not college football, the Dolphins dont recruit or scout local guys. They scout college draftees

    Well hate to tell u these guys were college draftees lol. Scouts are responsible for certain areas and someone is responsible for this area. Its the same concept as college football we send scouts to games and they watch tapes of different players, they are not in some bubble

    That isnt my point, thats like saying Oakland is stupid for missing on Davone Bess, just cause he's from there. It is however embarrassing seeing a team like the Hurricanes lose out on prospects such as Patrick Peterson. In the NFL, it doesnt matter where ur from and they don't focus in on drafting predominantly South Florida players.

    Davone Bess played in hawaii so its not the same. Both these guys played at a college in miami so yes our scouts should have more info on them than other teams

    We also completely overlooked Jimmy Graham, who played at the U.

    Thankfully though, we got Miller. Bout time.
