Some are suggesting the Dolphins will be a better team in 2004 if Travis Minor can handle the workload....is Minor's quick style a better fit for the Dolphins?
He might, but they are really hurtn in the QB and WR side of the ball. Defense will do good, but that wont win ball games for them
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (MysteryMan)</div><div class='quotemain'>I think without williams they're screwed and minor is just not good enough to handle a team.</div> Agreed...?? at QB, inconsisten WR's(part of the QB troubles) a reconstructed OL, and achs injured!
Minor has never really had a significant opportunity to prove if he can handle his new role. I think if Antonio Freeman signs. He, Terence Wilikins, & Chambers will be enough of a veteran presence at the position. If Snoop Minnis, Newson, Tolver, & Simmons step up. Things s/b okay. I have no confidence in Derrius Thompson. The QB position id allegedly up for grabs. Anyone who truly believes that has been down wind from Ricky Williams for too long. Bottom line is & has always been; Will Wanny be able to adapt & improvise? As always, No! Miami is between a rock & a hard place until he goes. They may totally tank and go 4-12 but 7-9 seems about right. The best thing is they s/b drafting anywhere from 9th to 15th and will be able to pick up an impact RB. Anthony Davis of Wisconsin or one the RB's @ Auburn come to mind.
I must admit, i am biased against minor. I think he is a bust waiting to happen, a worthless piece of . . . .well anyway he is not the answer.
He looks a lot like a young Priest Holmes, just waiting for his chance to breakout...or a young Thomas Jones, waiting for his chance to fall flat on his face...its tough to tell until he carries the load....Im encouraged that his career avg is 4.5 yards per carry....
