He better perform or the Dolphins will draft a QB in 08.

I think the Dolphins should take Dorsey. Junkie is the Fins fan though, he'd no more about them than I.

If the Dolphins lose is it too early to call him a bust?

yes, you have to wait till after the monday night game against the steelers. If he doesn't totally destroy that D then he is a bust

I think Miami should take Jake Long, that is just my opinion but I think Jake is a franchise left tackle, they would be able to move Carey to Right Tackle or inside to guard where he belongs. That would give Miami one the NFLs best Offensive lines. However Dorsey is a nice player and they are very old in the middle. Keith Traylor and Vonnie Holliday dont have much left, they do play Paul Soliai and Steve Fifita a lot though, probably more so than the starters.

I've thought that would be a great pick for them for quite a while as well. With Beck, Ginn, and Ronnie Brown, they have the potential to be a very solid offensive team if they add a franchise tackle like Long would be.

I think they would still need another WR or two, and their defense is getting old, but they have a nice foundation to be a solid team in the future.

What if Sakoda comes out early?

He'd be a top-10 pick, no doubt in my mind.

Re: Beck, I don't know how his game will translate to the pros. I think his arm strength and decision-making will be big bonuses for him, but he's not that big or durable.

I agree that Beck has the arm strength and he showed last year he had good decision making skills during the games; however, in his first start in the NFL, he might look more like the John Beck of '05 or '06. It took a couple of for him to be a very good college QB.
