jstammer Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Just read in this morning's edition of the Palm Beach Post that the Dolphins are loking to shop the No. 1 overall pick in this year's draft. The Dolphins also feel that the Falcons could be a willing trade partner as we have extra picks and may be anxious to move up to select our favorite player.Personally, I hope not, and I"m betting that with our coin toss win, we'd offer the Dolphins little, if anything just to move up two spots. Not to mention the big $s that go along with the No. 1 overall selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodhoundz Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 This would make no sense.KEEP IT AT 3 TD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconsstomp Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 if they draft matt ryan, i wont be a fan anymore, im sorry...matt ryan is not worth the #1 pick. this draft if full of potentially good QB's to waste it on our first pick.

MidWest Falcon Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Yep, no sense at all. At 3 we can get either Long, Dorsey, or Ellis. The only option the Falcons should consider is trading down IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statick Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Bloodhoundz Reborn (2/22/2008)This would make no sense.KEEP IT AT 3 TD!Makes no sense at all.We're at number three with nine (not including compensatory) picks. We don't have to consider making any upward movements in this draft.If anything, Parcells has to make overtures to US just to move down.

scott hartley Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 I think it's been established that the Miami Dolphins aren't so bright. Picking Ginn last year was a real winner..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g-dawg Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 its just "wishful" thinking on behalf of the Palm Beach newspaper and Miami Fans.......Matt Ryan would be the only reason to move up - and I don't think the Falcons even like Matt Ryan (nor do I until mid 1st round).

brakshere Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Just a hunch, but the only reason I can see us trading up is to cement getting a LT that can protect whichever QB we have. We saw that a team with no O' line gets it's QB killed. If it were to draft Big Jake, I'd be ok with it. I really don't think TD wants Ryan that badly...makes no sense. Maybe Parcells is yanking Blank's chain again to make us believe he's going to draft Long 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falconfansince66 Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Will someone please go tell the Tuna to go screw himself like he told us a couple of months ago? Also tell him that the pick we want is NOT what they want! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.:st.anger:. Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 No way, there's no reason to move up (2) spots to number 1. We can still get a top player at (3) very easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogueleadersf Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Just a ploy by the Dolphins pr spin team.They are the ones who want out of the pick.I think we are good right where we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
