Fun to watch, though.

Maybe they should get Marino back while they're at it? And Deion? Why not Sanders?

[Cntrygal]

Detriot hasn't released Sanders yet. If he came back he would be playing for them. (at least that's how I understand it - maybe I'm wrong?)

[4thAndLong]

Poor Barry.

[AG75]

*GrumbleGrumble* I do not want the Dolphins to do anything that may potentially "help" them. I feel like getting Troy could be a big bust or a big improvement depending if he could stay healthy or not.

I hear they were gonna dig up ol' knute rockne

AG75,

Aikman would be dead money after he gets his 100th concussion.

Troy, you have more important things to worry about than risking a serious injury, just turn your back, for your sake.

The NFL commisioner and ownership has to take a serious look at this.
The salary cap situation, rookie signing contracts, and overall salary structure is so weak, that no one can:

1. Develop a starting QB
2. Develop a backup QB

Not only the QB position, but practically every position.
There is such a famine of depth and development in NFL, that teams are going after retired players to fill their rosters.
This is responsible for the sub quality of play and "parity" we all experience. This isn't parity, it's mediocrity across the board.
What does this speak of in terms of tody as current class of players?
Essentially a good portion of todays starters are backups of 10 years ago, and todays backups are scrubs. Only handful of true starters exist on every team.
With this in mind, a new strategy emerges. Draft choices are less valuable than proven players. With the exception of a Mike Williams, or top 15 pick, the chances of landing a truly quality individual are small.
So what to do? Trade your draft picks for proven talent. Money well spent, seasoned veterans. Could anyone compare Drew as being less valuable than any player drafted in the draft this year, as in #1 overall even? Would you trade Drew for Julius Peppers, Harrington, or Carr?
Bottom line, the NFL is paper thin, and needs to come up with a better way for teams to develop depth.

amazing....who's next??marino???bob griese????what about david woodley????

[colin]

If Aikman plays for Miami, he might get another concussion. This next one might just end it for him, he might be a Mohommed Ali style vegitable..
