Very interesting. I thinkn a lot of us (me too) were thinking Wilford was great value as a WR5 who could put up WR3-4 #s. I have mocked in some 12 team, 20 pick drafts and I am pretty sure Hagan has not even been selected as of yet. It will be interesting to see whether he can hold onto the job.

Everything that I have read about Hagan is that he is looking like the best WR out there. The morning I went Wilford looked the best. The thing with Hagan is that he always looks great in training camp. He has the protypical size and speed, he just can't hang onto the ball. That was the knock on him coming out of college and that is where he is in the nfl- looks good but always drops the ball. Hopefully this is the year that he fixes the problem.On another note, I went to the Jags Training Camp the following morning and they run TC like club med compared to the Dolphins.

Well? That was more than a week ago....

I'm interested in how the Oline is gelling and how Long looks. This offense will only be as good as the Oline and as a Ginn and Brown owner I'm really hoping it pulls together this year. I'm really eying next year as the break out year for this O, but it would be nice to still get quality production this year as well.Also, do there seem to be any indications on how Mia plans to use Ginn this year. Now that he is taking over as the WR1 will he run the ball a lot (for a WR)?, short screens?, primarily long routes?

Yeah I just drafted Wilford (in round 22 for a WR4/5 bye week guy) yesterday. And I keep tabs on the Dolphins from Miami Herald emails. I had seen some buzz on Hagan but nothing to indicate that he was beating Wilford out. So I am suprised by this report from the Sun-Sentinel.FWIW Wilford always seemed to get a raw deal competing with the other WR in Jax over the years also. But more often than not was still the best WR they had during games. Maybe he is not as good a practice player as he is during games??
 
Wilford is a pretty standard NFL journeyman. Maybe comparable to someone like Joe Jurevicius or Ike Hilliard. He's good enough to consistently win a roster spot and he can catch some passes in a pinch, but he's not really a guy you want in your starting lineup. I think the reason he keeps getting pushed aside is because he's a fairly ordinary talent. Hagan is a flashier athlete with a higher ceiling.

 
I am wondering about C. Henne. I heard he's been practicing with the starting unit for a few days, which is pretty good this time of the year. I didn't think he'd have a chance to be the starter considering it took Tony Romo quite awhile to crack the lineup under Parcells, he likes to have the veteran Qb's in there.

So either Henne is playing pretty decent for a rookie or the other guys are just SO BAD that he's ready to push the envelope with Henne.

BTW, I am a big fan of Henne and said he was the best Qb in the draft, really like the 2nd round pick. I think Miami will be happy with this selection.

 
I'm more on board with Henne too. Even some veteran defensive players have been quoted as saying how poised and confident he looks.

John Beck hasn't gotten over his rotten performance last year and McCown is who he is. Henne has a solid chance to become the top gun in Miami.

I hope so....Henne didn't have the senior season he wanted. He was injured early in the season last year and played a lot of that season injured. He finally had some time to rest and showed what he could do versus Florida in the bowl game.If he starts, that would even exceed my expectations.
