Thank you for drafting the Ginn family, Cam, you big jerk.  That 1st Round Draft Pick has really paid dividends for the Fins.  Ginn should change his name to Houdini.  Every Sunday he pulls off an amazing disappearing act.  Yet another name to add to the long list of disappointing draft picks that make us Dolphins fans cry.

Welcome to the site Dolphster.  When you have a moment, please tell us about yourself in the Off Topic Forum. 

In regards to Ginn, it's good to see another person who can see Ginn for what he really is..... someone who had no business going in round 1.

Is it HIS fault he was reached for?

There's no doubt in my mind that we reached for Ginn, but jeez people, why do you hate HIM for it?

Hate on Cam for doing it, not Ginn.

I've hated on Cam,  but he's gone.  Now we're stuck with this bum because of his high contract.

I don't have access to the numbers but I'd bet Ernest Wilford has a higher salary thank Ginn.

You're right about the higher salary, Brian, but $14 million in guarantees?  We can't let him go at this point.

But one is atleast on the field stretching the defense,making the defense respect his speed.....The other isn't even on the field....

Wilford 1 catch 15 yards 1 first down....Ginn 16 catches 129 yards 7 First downs...

Neither are good.....but one has some sort of upside..the other not so much IMO...

I DON'T WANT TO LET HIM GO!

I can't understand why you would either.

Actually, scratch that - you want coaches fired after one year of bad performance.  Makes sense...

Next year, when Ginn is lighting up scoreboards, we'll see what you have to say

Ginn is the #2 WR on this team.  Pennington has not been throwing to WR's not named Camarillo.  wanna know why?  Camarillo always runs the short route.  Ginn runs the deep route.

Camarillo, thru 5 games, leads all WR's with 21 catches for 263 yards.  That's 4 a game for 50 yards.  Stellar.

I wish, just once, you would be objective with an open mind and not just look for reasons to hate.  You can't hate a guy because he's NOT making good plays.  You CAN hate him for making BAD plays, and Ginn is not that guy.

  We Dol-fans should expect a skill position guy (WR) who was picked #9 (last year) in the 1st round to produce more then 16 catches for 129 yards 0 TD  in 5 games.....that is a joke for a guy picked that high....it is our right to call him out  if we so please, for his PATHETIC play on the football field.

  Ginn was not even the number 1 or 2 WR on his Ohio State teams in college!! Wink

  The difference between Wilford and Ginn is Ginn cost Miami a TOP 10 PICK
  
  Wilford was a bad free agent signing, but cost nothing but $$$$.
