Dumb move. If there wasn't a top RB in the draft then go for it. But why get a guy with high mileage on him like Alexander or Edge James when you could just draft the same thing with low mileage on hm?
RBs for the most part have 5-6 great years in them max. Both Edge and Alexander are on the backside of those stretches. Get a stud RB where they are if they want to go the RB route.

Agreed. We kept him in check last time. He'd make the Phins a helluva lot better, though.Originally posted by LOSman WINSVanek is Austrian not EuropeanOriginally posted by Prov401Pacquiao isn't asian.

Alexander doesn't scare me much. He's a me-first guy who despite gaudy stats, never really overwhelms anyone. He does have a helluva nose of the endzone though.__________________

Feeley can start, but he's the kind of quarterback who needs stilts to clear the many hurdles presented in a division with three top-10 defenses: New England, Buffalo and the Jets, who might have more potential than any 'D' of the grouping.

Yeah really. I would do it if it was a straight swap. Surtain for Alexander. Throwing in the #2 overall for a lte round first kills it in my mind. That #2 is valued higher than that. You might as well give it away unless you get at least a first AND a seocnd for it. Ideally, you should get two firsts for it ( be it this year or one this year and one the next ). I would also accept Surtian for their first rounder straight up as well. Then Miami can draft a stud RB and still have a first rounder to add depth anywhere they see fit.
As this current rumor stands though, no thank you.

I saw one with Pot leafs all over it another that said Die Williams on the back... Funny stuff.I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Despite what the Bills did to him last year, Shaun Alexander is the man and would inevitably torch the Bills sometimes if we played them twice a year. You're crazy if you think any team can shut him down on a regular basis without losing the game elsewhere in the process.
Even so, with the Dolphins appearing to be at least another year away from completing their rebuilding I'd prefer they draft somebody if I were a Fish fan. Too many holes to fill and they should use this season and next to reload.
If they were as talented overall as the Bills then I'd probably go for it. Even highly drafted RB's can flop or take a season to develop. Alexander is a sure thing for the next couple years.One set of rules for all in the beloved community
