2008 NFL Draft Overflow Thread #2
This day keeps getting more and more interesting. Quick recap:
-Dolphins take Clemson DE Phillip Merling at #32.
-Lorenzo Booker traded to Eagles for their 4th round pick.
-Jason Taylor "might" be on his way to Tampa Bay in return for at least Tampa's 2nd rounder.
Full draft thoughts on today's events and tomorrow's events to come all week next week.
**UPDATE 8:11pm** The Sun-Sentinel is reporting that the Dolphins have indeed traded Jason Taylor to the Bucs. However, it's not know what Miami gets in return.
**UPDATE 8:36pm** It seems this report about a trade isn't accurate or, if it is, it's not for a 2nd round pick. Meanwhile, the Dolphins have drafted Michigan QB Chad Henne with the 57th overall pick. I guess you can never have too many QBs. And competition at every position is a good thing. John Beck and Josh McCown now have another competitor and it will make for a fun training camp.
**UPDATE 9:10pm** Well it's been a fun day. But I'm heading out of here for now. Feel free to carry on the conversation below for as long as you'd like. We'll have, much more on the events of today in the coming days and weeks. Join me back here tomorrow at 10 am EDT when day 2 gets going, with the Dolphins holding the first pick of round 3.
The day one conversation continues below...

Wow, this automatic updating thing is really taking off, isn’t it?

Yes
We should definitely get Brohm with the Tampa pick if we trade JT.

im a fan of ocho but not for JT…. it just doesn’t sound right—one great image and model for a team and then the total opposite

Laws is gone
if JT goes, Groves would be a steal

Dont forget about Sims
We had him in for 2 visits. He would be depth at 57 probably.

Just wondering...
Do any other sites have as many draft comments as we do?

nobody has mentioned Calais Campbell, not that we would draft him, but he has slipped some what, i guess the rumors about him we’re true.

I think we should trade him, it is the best route to take for our rebuilding team. As a fan of JT, I wanna see him retire as a Fin. But i'm a Fin first, JT fan 2nd.

You all understand
that when the trade is announced at 52, all the analysts will be saying its for Henne. If we fight the powers that be and draft Groves, I will start crying.
