What's this got to do with Brandon Marshall ?

Interesting interview with Chad Henne on WQAM... Asked about WRs his response was, we have Patrick Turner on the backburner and we are going to see what he has this offseason and Henne said Tim Tebow will never be an NFL QB
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 06:41 PM
Patrick Turner on the backburner?
What does that mean?
Any Context?
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:43 PM
They were asking whether he believes they need to bring in a veteran receiver and that's when he made his comment on Turner
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 06:45 PM
Offseason?
If he has a bad one is he gone?
Kind of weird statement.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:45 PM
Hmmmmm.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:46 PM
Hope they light a fire under Pats a s s.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:47 PM
PO from what I got from his comments was we have Turner and let's see if he is ready to step up and be ready to takeover... Let's see what happens during offseason, it was more complimentry then anything

PO, cant see them 86ing turner since they've kept the dead weight known as Ted(No testicular Fortitude)Ginn(And his family) for 4 plus years..........Then again what do I know??
Posted by: cuban menace | March 17, 2010 at 06:51 PM
Good deal, We need him to do something....
Anything.
Maybe step into a phone both and turn into Miles Austin!
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:51 PM
You're to hard on "fetal position" Ginn, CM.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:53 PM
Good info B12, we don't get that station in N FL. Jax, maybe but Vomit!
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:55 PM
Thats Jax info, Vomit. Hate the Jags.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 06:57 PM
Who are the leading posts for NJs Converted "PLUNGIES" ?????
Posted by: cuban menace | March 17, 2010 at 06:58 PM
PO, Miles Austin was drafted in 2006, had zero catches, 2007 5 catches 2008 31 catches, 2009 81 catches...I wish people would stop getting down on Turner, it took Austin 3 years to have a decent year, it takes time with some guys if Austin had 5 catches after two years in Miami he would have been called a bust on this blog with everyone wanting to cut him PATIENCE
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 07:00 PM
PO, Lived there for two of the longest years of my life from 97 to 99.........
Posted by: cuban menace | March 17, 2010 at 07:01 PM
Bobby I agree, What are your thoughts on Ted(Hands of stone)Ginn?????
Posted by: cuban menace | March 17, 2010 at 07:03 PM
Thats all I was sayin B12.
Need for Immediate gratification, sorry.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:04 PM
Sorry bout that CM. Tallahassee is worse.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:05 PM
Cuban, I've defended him but after really watching him beeline to the sideline after taking the kickoffs, I have no faith anymore...he is obviously scared of getting hit and that is an almost unfixable problem in the NFL
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 07:06 PM
Thank you........
Posted by: cuban menace | March 17, 2010 at 07:08 PM
I'll give 4 years if he turns into Austin.
Just thought the phone booth reference was comical.
I have the patience of Job, gotta have that to be a Phinfan. Goes without sayin.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:10 PM
Job the Biblical figure.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:12 PM
What was Job's 40 yard dash????
Posted by: cuban menace | March 17, 2010 at 07:18 PM
Slow i'm sure...
Use your taser to speed him up. lol
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:21 PM
If ya can't find Job, a Jets fan will do.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:35 PM
Cuban,
I think this will be Teddy's breakout year.
I have watched his steady improvement.
This is the year, I can feel it......
Posted by: odinseye | March 17, 2010 at 07:37 PM
Odin,
Think you are wastin it on CM.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:40 PM
Just sayin
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:40 PM
If ya can't find Job, a Jets fan will do.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:35 PM
Po
I like to find jets fans to gauge the results of my off season workout program.
Posted by: odinseye | March 17, 2010 at 07:40 PM
Blog server is actin up.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:43 PM

Posted by: heirshouse | March 17, 2010 at 07:43 PM
PO,
I think The Menace knows I'm just trolling.
I thought he might be worth keeping around as a return man.
After last year, despite the great game against the jets, I don't even think he's woth that.
Trade value? LMFAO! Just cut the guy already!
Posted by: odinseye | March 17, 2010 at 07:46 PM
Must be a anti violence to Jetsfans filter...
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:46 PM
Mando!
No harm in tasing a Jetsfan.
Ease up on the filter man.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:50 PM
Dolphins Digest has made their crystal ball picks for the draft....1. Dan Williams NT. 2. Damian Williams WR USC 3. Jermaine Cunningham DE/OLB Florida...thoughts???
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 07:52 PM
Could be worse could be better B12.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:54 PM
Would pick Major Wright over Jermaine Cunningham in the 3rd (needs based).
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:58 PM
If you are gonna pick a Florida boy that is.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 07:58 PM
I don't know anything about Cunningham, first time I heard his name even mentioned
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 08:14 PM
I'm a Gator and I don't know much about him..
I'd take Wright.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 08:20 PM
BobbyD,
I wouldn't be opposed to going WR in the 2nd but not Damian Williams. I don't think he'll ever be a true no.1 type and We got a lot of 2's and 3's already.
What do you think?
Posted by: odinseye | March 17, 2010 at 08:20 PM
Odin,
Think you are right about Williams being #2 at best.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 08:23 PM
odinseye, I don't agree either, if we going to use a second Benn or Thomas would be my choice
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 08:24 PM
Damian that is, not that I was asked. LOL.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 08:24 PM
Think we would have to trade a 6th or two to move up in the 2nd far enough to get a WR worth a 2nd pick.
Posted by: Po White Trash | March 17, 2010 at 08:26 PM
PO, we pick 9th in Round Two, u really think we would have to move up to get a WR pick worthy of a 2???
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 08:31 PM
Honestly, I think we will not pick a WR till Round 4 but I have no problem with a round 2 pick on a big time receiver
Posted by: bobbyd12 | March 17, 2010 at 08:33 PM
Needing a starter at FS has thrown my draft picks off, I really wish we could take care of this in FA before adding on this problem in the draft
