Dolphins - Parker

 

To me, he would be a little redundant with Pittman.  

 

Frank has said he ideally wants the WR corps to resemble a basketball team - every player with his own skillset and game.  We somewhat have that, if they could only stay on the field.

Don't get me wrong, I was on the Ryan train before anyone. However, Herbert will be a top 3 QB. That's his potential.

Potential of course, Herbert is very good.

Teams that scare me the most in the AFC are still KC despite them trading Hill and Buffalo - they have Allen and are loaded. I think we can even beat Cincy now.

 

Chiefs don't scare me without hill. I watched a ton of chief games last year and when a team took Hill away, that offense was not the same.

We even killed Buffalo with Wentz but they scare me. KC scares me because Mahomes is great and they still have Kelce and a great coach.

We don't play the Bills this year so it's only a concern if we see them in the playoffs.

Everyone should be concerned about now and not other teams

 

So MR is all that matters  Every other QB means nothing

I was referring to the poster saying Herbert hasn't won anything.

They can still draft.

 

True but why bring in FA/or re-sign TY when their best days are way behind them?   The illusion to the fans that they are trying to win??? 

[CR91]

I thought this was funny.

I would be ok drafting. As long as he wait until the 6th or 7th round.

Why wait until the 6th or 7th? 

It's a position that needs upgrading badly and way sooner than a late pick.

They need a good FA WR, definitely not TY and preferably not Julio.

And use the 2nd or 3rd on a wr.

Good listen. Matt Ryan in studio 680TheFan in ATL.

 

 

Thanks for sharing this.  Loved at 28:40 when he talks about his first pass as a pro which went for a 50 yard TD.  Funny story, and cool when Ryan actually talks X's and O's.  Also 35:15 when he talks about how he learns new systems like he'll have to when he gets to Indy.

For some reason I do that all the time. My hands are bad and when I type stuff it  puts does instead of doesnt. Then I forget to proofread it before I post it.

With MVS gone it really makes sense to trade for Parker now.  We can even restructure his contract.  This feels like an obvious solution to me.  Then if you can sign Tyrann that would be a heck of an off season.

[Indyfan4life]

Sign Parker, now.

Sign/Trade. Get him on this team.

[2006Coltsbestever]

If TY wanted to sign for cheap, like 1 yr/6 mill I would do it. He still can give you 4 or 5 games that can change a season.

At this stage I would be disappointed if we resigned TY instead of trading for Parker.

I wouldn't be upset with Hilton/Parker/Pittman. HIlton can still move and pull doubles.

[Patrick Miller]

Maybe we are rolling with Pittman, Patmon and whomever we draft. Maybe pick up a wr in the second tier of free agency after the draft.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I think Sammy Watkins could be a good pick up. Colts were going to sign him last year if Hilton didn’t come back.

I agree.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Colts may be waiting to see what Hilton does before going after Watkins.

Who is the best WR options left in FA/Trade: Not exactly a stellar list. I might make a call to Seattle to see if Metcalf or Lockett can be pried away.

1. Beasley- 32/would provide slot help/unvaccinated status is a +/-?

2. Fuller-27/Injury history/PED history/personal problems

3. Parker-29/Injury history

4. A.J. Green- 34/injury history

5. Sammy Watkins- 29/injury history

6. Emmanuel Sanders-35

7. Jarvis Landry-29/injury history

8. Allen Lazard-25

9. OBJ- 29/Injury history

10. Desean Jackson- 35/injury history

Why does it have to be one or the other?

[Patrick Miller]

I have to admit it is kinda irritating to see teams like the chiefs going out and snagging a couple WRs while it appears Ballard and the colts are sitting on their hands.

As far as Beasley goes the whole unvaccinated deal shouldn't be an issue. I'd go for Beasley and Watkins

It’s annoying. I really hate hearing about cap space. Teams find ways. The cap is imaginary.

In past interviews, Ballard has basically said he doesn’t put high importance on the WR position.

 

He has drafted some WR higher in the draft but you can tell he is too worried about WR, especially in Free Agency.
