He still is learning but he has had 4 years of college, a year carrying the clipboard, a year in the fire last year, now he is starting this year...I'm not impressed and I'm a Dolphinfan. I think the organization will need to take a good hard look at who they can draft and or sign next year. Henne is not going to help Miami win any Lombardi Trophys.
Brady, Manning, Roethlisberger, Brees...those guys are all likely to be hall of fame inductees, several 1st ballow too so where doe sHenne stack up? Brad Johnson was the last journeyman to wina SB for the Bucs and he was a decent QB with a fantastic group of talent around him and an amazing defense backing him up.
Henne is moderate at best. He is going to look silly over the next 5 games against NE, @GB, PIT, @Cinci, @Balt...if you could sell him and get anything for him you should do so.
WOW!!!!!!
Wait till Smackdown reads this
I'm surprised you feel this way.... IMO,
we don't give QB's enough time these days and QB is the hardest position in the sport to Analyze and judge. Two of the most important things for a young QB IMO are 1) Putting the time in and eating and breathing Football and 2) Being able to take a hit and just keep coming without flinching....
I was watching some tape on Aikman and I really forgot the Absolute BEATING the man took early on... I'd say 9 out of 10 QB's turn intro David Carr after that into to the NFL.
That said, I think there's a long way to go to evaluate Henne overall.. He hasn't taken too many punches yet thanks to a good OL...
But, you can't deny the arm and the fact that he has maybe the most talented WR in the game where a QB can make a career out of learning how to just toss it up to such a weapon.
I put a lot of faith in what Rex Ryan says when talking X"s and O's and Henne is winning the battle Vs Rex right now and he admits it so, he has to have some hope.
