Dolphins now have wallace, hartline and gibson.. leaving bess as the #4 wr making 2mil.. id take davone off their hands for a late round pick. he's a very very good slot reciever who has good hands. always have liked his game and he could be had for cheap. Won't be the next #1 but would be a solid 2/3 and i think could possibly push lafell.. murphy doesnt compare to davone bess. a 6th or 7th?

Eh, nothing against Bess but we have enough 3rd-6th receivers (wouldn't beat out Smitty, a young guy we might take in the draft to be a possibly future #1, or Lafell). Any resources spent on a WR need to be spent on one toward the front of the WR line, not the middle or back, in my opinion.

he said a 7th round not a 1st round. You make it sound like you can find a "front line wr" with a 7th round. Based off fact and history most picks after the 5th round barley makes the team. I will give a 6th or 7th for bess or any proven # 2, or 3 wr any day.

I didn't say anything about 1st round pick. I'd rather our late picks spent on developmental OL or a Kicker or Punter that could start than another Louis Murphy deal. I'm not saying I'd hate it, I don't feel terribly strongly either way, but I'm just saying we have a logjam at middling WRs. We need talent at the top of our WR depth chart, not so much in the middle.

We won't even sign middling WR' s in FA let alone go through the hassle of trading for one. I'm afraid this team is going to limp into next year with a half assed roster and a GM looking to hire his own coach. Not saying that's what it is, just saying that's what I feeling.

what we need and what we can get are 2 different discussions.. I think you may be undervaluing what Bess would bring to the table.

Maybe. I was optimistic about Murphy last year, I'm trying to steer my optimism away from "maybe on a different team" WRs now though. He could very well be successful here, /shrug

I'd be content going into this season with Smitty and LaFell on the outside with Bess in the slot.. I'd rather go with a 2 TE set, but at least we still have 2 solid weapons over the middle of the field..

obviously finding a true #1 would be ideal, but easier said than done..

      Who wants Bryce to fail?

      By TimeTravelerTep · Posted

      Bryce was awful last year, first two games this year. I wanted him gone so bad. I'll admit I'm seeing a bit of progress. His size is still a huge concern, and arm strength, but I have to admit he can show very above average touch. He does seem to be improving.  You have to understand that a large part of the fans on this site (especially ones in this thread) are the exact same as Tepper. I'm talking the exact same. They act like every other quarterback in the league is putting up 500 ads and 4 TD's every game. Someone can have 3 really good games and then 1 bad game and it's "see i told you he is the worst." The guy has not been in the league long, he has all young guys he is throwing to, on a team with no identity, a broken confidence, with Tepper as an owner. In those circumstances, this is about as much as you should be asked for. And it doesn't matter what stupid trade was used to get you. He didn't make the trade. And that stupid trade does not automatically make you suddenly better at football like many in here. The progress is ok, jury is still out on him starting next year. We have more games. And many on this site do not watch games and just parrot what they hear. You can tell because they are the 3rd time you heard that day. If you want a perfect example in why you shouldnt pay much attention to these people, just go back and look at who was saying saying Darnold was the worst and we needed him gone immediately. It was so stupidly obvious that getting rid of Darnold at the time we did was the dumbest move you could make at the time. So many knew this out in the real world. Especially in our situation. But you see, the narrative was put out that he had to go, and the slow ones latch on to it and parrot. I'm not going into it but just go back and look, those people have no idea whats going on.

      The wrist is/was an existing injury that XL has been playing thru.  Didn’t occur on that 3rd down quick throw at the sideline. The timing of the motion was f-ed in that play.
