Tedd Ginn, Jr.?

There's news today that he might not even be ready for the start of training camp. He's walking around in a boot right now.

Horrible reach by the Dolphins, I really don't get it.

My buddy who is a big Dolphins fan was majorly bummed when they passed up Quinn.

I'm going to have to change my mind on this one. I don't think Miami should have taken Quinn. But this injury to Ginn is alot more serious than I thought. I just thought he had a minor little foot sprain. I heard this am that this thing may never heal properly. Not good for a guy that depends on speed. So we shall see. Sucks the guy got hurt after he scored a TD.

If Ginn is a bust , I guess that Hall < Cb/Mich> and Ross Cb/Ttexas ,, now a NYG> must be bust's considering he toasted both for td's . I would trade Loyd for Ginn in a second .

:offtopic:

Ok, so maybe not off-topic exactly, but certainly beside the point as mentioned above ... I guess I just wanted to use that smiley ...

If the Dolphins misdiagnosed Ginn's injury, just like they did last year with Culpepper and Brees then heads should roll there

A courageous move by Miami, given the inevitable criticism in passing up QB Brady Quinn.

Here's former Redskin General Manager Charley Casserly on Miami's choice:

We all had it wrong here. Just when I got through writing Brady Quinn's name next to Miami, they took Ted Ginn Jr.! They kept this one quiet, maybe too quiet. Sometimes it is a good idea to let the fans know there are some other options when you pick, but the danger in doing that at the ninth pick, is you might tip other teams on who you are interested in. Now to Ginn. He's the second-fastest player I have ever scouted -- the fastest being Darrell Green, who was the fastest player in my 30 years in the NFL. I remember going to Ohio State to scout Santonio Holmes -- who can run pretty fast -- and just watch Ginn run right by him. Some people feel Ginn will have trouble getting off the press and running routes. I don't believe that. He has foot quickness and the change-of-direction ability to do that. In fact, if you want to press him, good luck -- because if you miss him at the line of scrimmage, you might as well send the PAT defense on because you will not catch him. There are a couple of things that bother me about him -- his pure hands and size. As for size, there are guys like Ginn who have been great pros: Marvin Harrison and Steve Smith. Neither of these guys made a living in college going over the middle. This is a pick that is getting criticized by many, but you won't hear defensive coordinators who have to defense Ginn criticize him. He is also can impact the game as a return man.
