Mediocre reserves prove value of Dolphins’ Brown

 Miami Dolphins
The cliché is that the line makes the running back, and one would think that to be particularly true when it comes to a team like the Miami Dolphins that possesses a young, emerging stable of blockers. But, looking at the wide differences in yards per carry averages among their backs, it's clear that Dolphins fans should stake their 2008 hopes...

Brown is a great talent great person but gets injured to easily. I know most will not agree but I would trade him for a 1st rounder if we could and pick MdFadden. If I could not do that I might consider having both McFadden adn Brown in the same backfield while the rest to the team is being rebuilt. This would rest the defense with a stong running game and give us some time for a QB like Beck to develop without having to carry much of the load.

Beck was the best thing to out of our draft last year if you ask me. The guy will be a stud behind the right O-line. Looking forward to next year already.

Phintim you dont get the big picture Brown broke a bone in his hand in 06 that can happen to anybody i dont give a damn how tuff you are.As far as his knee how many nfl running backs dont tear a ligament in there knee over there career's.And Mcfadden is very injury prone he cant even make a whole college season we have a great back in brown we dont need nobody else we need WR's who can catch a line that will block and a coach who can coordinate a good game plan for opposing teams.And some help on deffense phintim thats probably why your not a talent scout or anything so get off brown's back.
