Brandon Marshall to the Dolphins, Tedd Ginn Jr. drops whatever is in his hands

Hooooh boy.... FINALLY some great news out of Dolphins camp! Yeah I was happy to hear that we signed Karlos Dansby back on March 5, but that was back on March 5! I was beginning to wonder what else we were going to do to improve, and my 'Fins did not disappoint!

Ask any Dolphins fan what our #1 concern is this off-season and you will get the same answer: "We need a (expletive) receiver that can do something!"

Mention Tedd Ginn, Jr. and it could get physical.

"Oh sh*t, that thing

almost HIT me!"

So now we have our receiver, and yes- on the surface he comes with some baggage. But really, if Bill Parcells thinks he's worth the trouble, who can really say any different? Tuna errs WAY on the side of caution when it comes to these things, so I see this as a great sign. Some guys just need a clean slate with a new team, and Mr. Marshall, we are thrilled to provide that for you!

So what now? Well now Brandon Marshall gives Chad Henne a chance to shine, that's what! Henne is more talented than Marshall's last quarterback and he has a strong arm. You know what goes great with that? A big, strong receiver who can make some things happen after he catches the ball.

(Did you hear that Ginn?! After he CATCHES the !@%$#%@ ball!)

Plus, having a true number-one receiver will allow Devon Bess to be a true number-two receiver; if Brian Hartline can continue to develop like he's expected to we go from having a piss-poor receiving corpse to actually having a descent-to-above-average one.

"You hear that?!

Decent-to-above-average!"

Let's not forget the one thing Dolfans have actually been able to enjoy the last few years- the running game. Ronnie Brown is great (when he stays healthy), and Ricky Williams is a cyborg. Plus, Patrick Cobbs just completes it PERFECTLY. Also note- I DO NOT think the Wildcat has run its course. I think we shelved it last year because of all the injuries, and I think it will be back with a vengeance. Now we give these guys some receivers to keep opposing defenses honest, and they can REALLY wreak havoc! I think this is going to be a mutually beneficial relationship between the Miami running and passing attacks.

Also, let's not underestimate the value of addition by subtraction. Bill Parcells sure does have a knack for maximizing what he gets from players and then throwing them out with the trash. Joey Porter is a perfect example of the aforementioned trash. Bring him in, get 17.5 sacks out him, keep him for another year and use him to motivate the guys you actually plan on keeping, then just slide him right out of town just as people starting asking "hey, isn't it about time for Joey to get arrested for DUI/resisting arrest/assault on a police officer?"... brilliant!

Addition by subtraction is great, but subtraction by subtraction sucks. Jason Taylor was once a great example of the former, but now he's in danger of being a painful example of the latter. Yes, it was great the way Parcells sniffed out his one (1) bad year and shipped him off to Washington, only to get him back at wholesale when he was "all better". But now he's back to form, and our defense CANNOT afford to lose it's anchor; especially at a time that it seems to be coming together nicely. Losing him to the.... oh God I can't say it....

... anyway, losing him to them would be the most demoralizing thing possible. I'm fairly certain all this "Dirty Sanchez" talk is just posturing on JT's part until the Dolphins get his deal done, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD just get his freakin' deal done already!

Here's lookin' forward to Football!
