With their first of two second round picks, the Dolphins made a bold pick - selecting QB/WR Pat White. White wants to play quarterback, but it's unlikely he's going to be used as a true quarterback. Instead, he'll likely bring all new elements to Miami's 'wildcat' offense. I would bet he also gets a crack at being Miami's primary return man.
White measures in just over 6'0 tall and weighs 197 pounds. He ran a 4.55 40 at the Combine. Here is what Draft Countdown says about Pat White:
Strengths: Outstanding athleticism...Good speed and quickness with a burst...Elusive open field runner with great vision who is difficult to tackle...Versatile and can be a weapon on trick plays...Very productive...Has a pretty high football IQ...Also has some potential as a return man...A proven winner and team leader with solid intangibles.
Weaknesses: Does not have the size, arm strength or accuracy that you look for in an NFL signal caller and will most likely have to make a position change...Is he open to a move???...Has a slight frame...Durability is a big concern...Has had some issues with ball security...Extremely raw as a route runner and pass catcher...Limited experience in a pro-style offensive system... Will he be tempted to pursue a pro baseball career?
I like the pick. It's a bold move but will bring new elements to Miami's offense that the NFL has never seen.
For more on White, check out my post from March when I made a case for taking the play-making Mountaineer.

Wow - just peeked in now and saw the Pat White pick...
I’m pretty shocked about it as I’d joked for days about the pats or cards or steelers taking him in the 3rd or 4th round. Now we pick him at 44? I think the joke just might be on us!
I like Pat White and respect his game, he’s a real winner and a class guy. The thing is – how do you spend a high 2nd rounder on a player who is a) going to play a few snaps in a gimmick formation, b) unproven at any other position ?
The Davis pick I could even understand because CB is a big need. Wildcat QB – Slash type player? I don’t think so…
by Natalya on Apr 25, 2009 8:39 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
i agree with you Nat
i am stumped by this one. I think we could have grabbed him later if they wanted to.
and i agree that his primary function at that draft position better not be a gimmick player. hopefully they either think he can bulk up and be a RB/Returner or a WR/Returner.

This guy would be interesting in the Wildcat
And now that they have someone to give that formation much more versatility, would they perhaps throw in Ronnie Brown in a trade for Boldin with the other 2nd round pick and a later one? Possibly, but I’m not quite sure how well he will work out. Guess we’ll have to wait and see.

I dont like this one.
I think with the 2nd pick you have to have a guy who plays more than 7-15 plays a game. The only reason I could think of for this type of move is…….Beck will not be on the team come training camp, he could already be traded and we dont know it yet and they know CP10 will not take a back up role next yr when they plan on moving Henne in as the starter. If this is the case then I like this pick because now your back up QB will be getting plays and not just sitting on the sideline holding a clip board. In Tuna we trust because this pick has the Tuna written all over it…….I dont see Jeff Ireland doing this if the Tuna isnt there.

But you are looking for explanation where there is NONE!!!!!

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. Now go play in traffic.
My mistake, it was Ranle-El who threw it, but he was also a quarterback in college (just like Ward and White) who played reciever, was a good athlete and added another dimension to the offense

Do the dolphins need a wildcat QB/KR more than a pass rusher to compliment Joey Porter?
Do the dolphins need a wildcat QB/KR more than a replacement/upgrade for Ferguson in the middle?
Do the dolphins need a wildcat QB/KR more than a good all around receiver?
Do the dolphins need a wildcat QB/KR more than an upgrade at ILB?

I’m not a fan of this pick at all.
It almost feels like 2007 when they chose Ted Ginn. I almost cried.
by anaconda on Apr 25, 2009 8:57 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
given who is currently on the team and who was left on the board yes yes yes yes (i'm assuming)
Cam Wake will compliment Porter. And they may still be high on Anderson, Walden, or someone they can draft later.
Brace was already gone. There was no other NT available at 44 that wouldn’t be a huge reach. I’m sure they will draft one tomorrow.
All the top receivers were gone by 44. The only guy worth taking may have been Massaquoi.
There were no ILB worth taking at 44. I’m sure one will be drafted tomorrow whom they have their eyes on.
Pat White, on other hand, probably would not have fallen out of the second round even if the Dolphins didn’t draft him.

Actually not quite....
I’ll root hard for Pat White. Like I said, he’s a class act and a winner. I hope he really turns out to be a gem and a big playmaker.
However the front office is who decided he should be tabbed by us at 44.
The dolphins didn’t turn to the wildcat because their base running game was doing that great. Now in effect, we’ve brought in a player specifically for that offense. What happened to the big upgrade in the regular running game with signing Grove and having Long + Carey?
Plus White isn’t proven at all as a receiver. 4.55 is quick but not a burner by any stretch. In effect, what does White have as a receiver that Bess doesn’t? What does he have as a return man – again, where he is unproven – that Ginn doesn’t?
I’ll grant you, he can throw much better than Ronnie…
by Natalya on Apr 25, 2009 9:20 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I don't know
I thin we may be looking to much at the obvious, he was drafted as a WR not a QB perhaps his true role is to compliment that corp with hep on special teams first and add depth to the Wildcat formation.
I think many have to much of a tunnel vision on this one, first of all when has the Tuna ever gone out and said ’i’m gonna do this!’ honestly now…I think this is a good pick He seems like a true athlete versatile, flexible and able to ply many spots. IMO I rather have an athlete than a single skill rigid player.

Everybody hated the Henne pick last year...
because John Beck was the future and face of the franchise.
Now Henne is the savior of the future and this is a bad pick.
I think they may have reached for Pat White and that is never good, but don’t underestimate the benefit of an improved kick and punt return game, which he will affect immediately.
He can add a game-breaking dimension to the Wildcat in the present time (imagine if Ronnie Brown could throw the ball accurately) and have developmental upside as a Antwan Randle-El OR an Anquan Boldin RAC dimension later for a 2nd round pick: Younger, Faster, Quicker, and he can throw the ball.
So much for Chase Clement…

Pat White, good pick
You know at first I didnt like this pick but then I thought about the versatility Pat White gives this offense. We all knew that if we got a big name WR we would have to let one of our 5 go and I dont think Parcells was willing to do that. White gives us a ton of versatility as a guy who can throw the ball well out of the wildcat or whenever we need him to. If we need him to play WR he can do that as well. Not to mention what he adds in the return game. We improved 3 offensive parts of our game with just 1 guy
I really like this pick.

I don't get it.
I’ve read everybody’s comments — the supporters included — and I just don’t get it. He’s not going to play QB, except in the wildcat. We only ran the wildcat because we couldn’t have moved the ball, otherwise. Now, instead of improving our ability to move the ball on a regular, reliable basis, we add somebody to strengthen our stopgap formation?
As a WR, I’m with Natalya: what’s he bring that Davone Bess doesn’t have?
He’s got zero chance of becoming Anquan Boldin or Hines Ward. He’s too small. The only WR models for somebody with his frame are Randle-El, who is much faster, and Bess/Camarillo/Welker, which we already have 2.
As for “he’s going to improve the return game” . . . good lord, is Cam back?
Is it possible they’re thinking of transitioning him to a CB?

Forgot to say...
I don’t get Matty I’s argument either. He’ll play QB in the wildcat and some WR and KR? If they’re counting on him to play QB in the wildcat, and they’re counting on the wildcat enough to spend the 44th pick on it, they are not going to play him at KR, and very little at WR. You can’t risk getting him hurt.
by urbino on Apr 25, 2009 9:52 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Its not that they are counting on it so much they
spent 44 on the Wildcat- the value comes from the fact that he does so many things. He gets 5 snaps from the Wildcat a game, and hauls in a few catches, returns 2 or 3 punts/kicks- that all adds up and if you get that many touches out of a 2nd rounder, then yes it is value.

Pat White could easily become the number 1 or 2 QB for the Dolphins in the next couple years
Beck will be gone and CP may be gone after this year. A 2nd round pick for at least a backup up QB who can also play WR and would add another dimension to the wildcat seems like good value to me.

I hope you guys are right.
Alls I’m sayin’ is, right now, I just don’t see it. My spidey sense is screaming “classic tweener!”
I’ll say this for him: I just looked up his vitals, and he’s taller than I remembered him being. Still awfully short for an NFL QB, but maybe the Boldin comparisons aren’t as much of a reach as I first thought.
One thing’s for certain: it’ll be another interesting training camp.

As long as
he’s not sitting as the 4th receiver or the 3rd string QB, then this pick has promises. If he can be the 3rd QB(this year, maybe #2 next) but do the PR and KR and also get into the offense as a wideout or other option then it could be potentially a good pick. Practice time could be interesting.

two 1st round corners in a position we need
plus a dynamic wildcat, potential qb of future, with playmaking ability…plus return ability…
great. offense might just have that fire power we’ve been looking for
i can see it now
week 1
“We saw this last year…and its back again…Dolphins line up in Wildcat Formation. Ronnie brown under center. Ricky in motion…..he hands the ball off on a sweep to ricky…ricky tosses back to pat white…white on a reverse…oh my goodness….I dont believe it. White lobs the ball down field hitting Ted Ginn in stride. This is not the same Miami Dolphins folks…LOOK OUT!”
I believe in John Beck and that Cbdolphin is the man. I'll make you proud LCFF

this pick makes some sense
white threw the ball well and he’s a serious threat out of the wildcat… and with ronnie hitting ebay – it’s pretty clear why… they obviously like white as a developmental qb, which means that beck will go to the first team to offer a sack of hammers.

i disagree
we don’t really need a sack of hammers, so it’s more likely that they trade him for something like 8 footballs and some field chalk.

D#$N -
i knew you were asking for too much when you demanded 8 footballs….
had we just settled for the sack of hammers – we would have gotten something for him….
curses cammueller – had you only taken the whole beck family!!!!

OMG- you have no idea what you are talking about!
I’m sorry I don’t mean to be an ass but you are all over the place shouting at people and decrying this pick is a failure and calling the front office idiots.
Just chill out man- for all you know NE was ready to snap him up with their next pick! You don’t know where his value was, what he is going to add to this team, or where else he would have been picked up. The triad did their research, set their draft board, and that is where they had him slated- get over it! I can tell you don’t watch college football because if you watched college football you would be ecstatic. Would you at least let the kid play a game before you jump off of a bridge?

i agree with
you assessment of white, any one who has seen the kid play has to be excited. he is a serious play maker who will open up the offense and allow some others to develop their play making skill (aka yhe t ginn family)

I was surpirsed he wasn't in the first round
Obviously I haven’t been paying attention to the draft and where who was slated to go where, but I think this is a steal. He’s undersized for the NFL, but he’s one of the most successful and talked about college players in the last 4 years. There’s a reason for that. It sure as hell wasn’t his coach or the school he went to.

Actually, I was at work and missed everything as it happened so I was hoping to come home and get a good surprise. Wow, I got one. I’m stoked.

Jim Jensen #2
Ok so there are a lot of nay-sayers. Aren’t those the same nay-sayers to the release of Zach Thomas, Jason Taylor trade?!? Puh-leeeez , White is a special player which is undeniable, does anyone remember how he wowed everyone with his display of accuracy on pro day? Even draft guru Bill Bellichick described ths as a solid draft in the latter rounds, I think we have just witnessed the second coming of Jim Jensen, except a better version.
I give this move a solid thumbs UP.

I’m still torn on this pick, on one side he is a freakish athlete who can play QB/WR/PR maybe DB. He’d make the Wildcat dangerous, but on the other side he is a luxury pick who is adament about playing QB, Both Jaws and Mayock love him as a QB. He wont be used as such outside of the Wildcat.
I would prefered Stintim
