This is why Parcells knows what he's doing. Our special teams was awful last year. We gave up so many long returns and lost the field position battle. Aside from maybe Torbor and Starks, guys like Ryan, Kircus and Anderson are special teams aces. Grigsby is a special teams Kamakaze. We need players like that. As for Perry, well, he's an awesome kick returner, and while I think Ted Ginn is a solid punt return guy, he isnt cut out to be a kick returner.

I'm still wondering what their plan is for the other guard position. Not sure why Hadnot isn't liked... maybe it's a $$ thing. That being said, he hasn't signed as far as I'm aware so I guess maybe he's not as good as his rep seems to have been the last couple years.

Sounds like some solid additions to special teams that was lacking. We will have a new team after draft day. I am still curious who they will draft though.

This Griggs was a career linebacker in college. They may move him back there . As for special teams , it's nice to see someone making so many sensible moves . Hadnot isn't jumping of the screen at anyone . My take is , he's average at best asking too much money . Keeping in mind , we had a very bad team , so the average players may have looked better than they actually are .

A Specail Teams upgrade is a must for us, so even though you don't know these guys names I sure Parcells is going after the right guys.

Dude, do you have down syndrome? There are no clear franchise QB's in this draft. Maybe we can get one later and develope one. Smart decisions on the FA's. Too many to get and won't contend for atleast 2 seasons.

From the desk of H. Wayne Huizenga... Dear Mr. Parcells, according to Rogg you have no clue what you are doing. I regret to inform you but your contract is terminated, and I am replacing you with Roger... 19-0 this season... GO PHINS!!!

From the desk of Wayne H: Roger, Mr Parcells has been relieved of his duties. I now seek your opinion since before I hired Mr Parcells, I sought the opinion of so many idiots, and you fit this catagory. Who is a solid franchise QB available to me?

No decent free agent will leave the USA to come and play for the lousy banana republic dolphins.

Free agents will first try & beg their way on to the MIGHTY JETS team.

Those that we reject will try out for other NFL teams.

...and last, the dregs that are still unsigned will begrudgingly play for the bottom feeding fish aka dolphins.
