There are plenty of people out there who think he will wind up playing RT. Gholston owned him back in college and that’s even taking plays off!

Too bad people had doubts about Dorsey. He would have been a nice centerpiece to the D-line in Miami.

I think Miami should have traded down and stockpiled picks but that’s just me.

I think the Tuna wanted to but no one was willing to move up.

Miami wanted to trade down and offered to do so.

However, there were no takers as the price tag that comes with the Number One pick was not worth the talent available in this year's crop.

Apr. 01, 2008 ... Dolphins owner Wayne Huizenga indicated Monday that teams do not appear interested in trading for Miami's No. 1 overall draft pick .... Huizenga said the way this draft is evolving, ``the top four or five picks -- a lot of teams aren't willing to spend the money to move up. This is one of those off years where no team really wants to move up.'' .... Last year's No. 1 draft pick, JaMarcus Russell, got a contract from Oakland that included $31.5 million in guaranteed money.
