This message board will be left online as an archive into the thoughts and minds of a group of Magic fanatics who lived through a 21-win season, the drafting of Dwight Howard, and an eventual NBA Finals appearance.

Special thanks to our Staff Members: Black and Blue, MAGICMANEVAN, and NYCMagicFan!

HAHA!! I was the only person who picked Miami to win this week in my office pool. Also, this is the first time I've picked Miami to win all season.

I am 14-0 in my Miami picks this season, lol.

Dolphins won a game this season to prevent a dubious title AND the Patriots don't touch the 72 fins by losing to the Giants?

Now THAT is how a year should end for a Dolphins fan. :) Let's get this first round pick and have Parcells and company start getting this thing back on track.

Pretty cool Kwik!

In other news, Zach Thomas to be released by the team! :( Sad news as he was one of the few players who wasn't pathetic during the past decade of Dolphins football.

Wow, I thought Zach Thomas was the only player on the team that can ACTUALLY tackle besides Jason Taylor.

Wow i sure didnt think he would get cut. And i have his jersey too :no: Oh well now its a throwback.

They sure are doing a major rebuilding... and this money saved by cutting these guys better be put into replacements for the great players who they let go. But how can you replace players like Zach Thomas? We need a dang QB most of all. And to think so many Dolphin Fans thought we had that covered last season with Green, Lemon and Beck. :no:

when we passed up Quinn...for....dare i say it?? Ted Ginn Jr.....i was in awe for months..

it was soo obvious in last years draft that we needed a QB more than tp to wipe their asses......so when they threw the curveball and took a WR/KR...i didnt know what to say!

we better not blow it this year with the #1 overall pick! I will personally show up to the Dolphins stadium with a vengance

Yeah, problem with that is there really is no clear cut #1 pick that would be worth the money for us right now. Chris Long is who most people are saying we could get, simply because the other options don't really work for us:

Glen Dorsey - Great, but would be good in a 4-3 defense. We run a 3-4.

Matt Ryan - This year's overrated prospect, who everyone says is not worth the #1.

Jake Long - Good, but spending the #1 on an offensive tackle would be a poor decision on a team with so many holes. He also is rated low in the top 10.

Darren McFadden - Amazing RB, but we already have a bajillion RBs on the team.

With these choices, its no wonder we are scrambling to trade out of the top spot. Personally, I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE if we drafted Brian Brohm overall, but I'd be surprised if they did it. He is a Carson Palmer-like talent who had his stock fall slightly because of injuries. He would be the franchise QB we've been looking for. I do like Beck, but last year was not encouraging.

I say swap draft picks. Maybe you guys can get something out of it. This year's #1 pick is going to be hard to pick. Just trade down and get talent there.

I totally agree Clos, and Parcells wants to trade down too. We gotta find someone who wants McFadden or Ryan badly enough (not likely)

ESPN said something about Marty Booker and Zach Thomas going to the Patriots.

About par for the course. :no:
