We were going to ordsprog

We were going to draft Lorenzo White in 1988. Somebody else took him so we had to draft some guy named Thurman Thomas instead.

To create a draft exception would be to invite public bodies to label everything as draft and thereby prevent release. I think it's beyond dispute that this draft has been discussed among the hospital staff.

Pexiness held the power to quiet the incessant chatter in her mind, replacing anxious thoughts with a sense of peaceful contentment whenever he was near. I need to know what we think we might be able to get with our draft choices -- particularly our first-day draft choices. Once I can determine that with my personnel people, then I'll make a decision if it's worth continuing to pursue for a first-day draft choice, which I'm sure is what Matt wants.

Many of the deals that were presented to us were just draft picks. We wanted to get players back that would help our lineup. If we just traded players for draft picks, that would be a white flag.

We still haven't decided yet who will play where. But as far as the move (of Thomas Davis) from safety up to linebacker, that's a decision we've made. Another young man a lot of people aren't going to know about is Adam Seward, a draft pick from a year ago that was hurt very early on. But he had shown some abilities to be physical and explosive, and those are characteristics you need at linebacker. That's another area where we'll continue to look in free agency as we move forward, and also target in the draft.

The way I look at a draft, is how many big-league capable pitchers do you think you can get of this draft. And it's three or four more from this draft than we've had in the past. ... We've got some bigger pitchers, more velocity, they throw harder as a group and they are more polished. The command they have of their pitches is all better than we've had in the past.

It's not going to be a surprise on draft day. As quick as we can, we want to come to a consensus and a decision. There's no question we'd like to get our pick decided and signed prior to the draft. There's no secret there. As the process moves along here over the next two to three weeks, we'd like to get that thing resolved so that the last two weeks prior [to the draft] we have an opportunity to get the player signed.

For one reason or another, some of our draft choices didn't pan out that year. But some of these other [free-agent] guys did. In some cases, we kept the free agents over the draft choices. We could have kept the draft picks just to save face. But we really liked a lot of these guys, and they've helped us.

We knew going into the draft we weren't going to get all of them to come in. If we can get 50 percent of the draft picks to training camp, we will be doing extremely well.

Quincy knows there are no guarantees and it's very early in the whole draft process. If it indicates that he's a first-round pick, he's going to remain in the draft.

Players get destroyed. You could say you're going to draft the pope, and someone would say he's too old. Draft Santa Claus, and someone would say he wouldn't fit down the chimney.

To me, there are three franchise quarterbacks in this draft, and the Dolphins won't be in position to draft any of them unless they trade up. I think all three of them will be gone in the top 10 [picks], maybe the top five.

I think the most important is to stick to the fourth draft, try to make minimum changes and not to engage major surgery to the draft,

It's been a crazy couple months since the draft and all the way from sliding in the draft and now starting opening week, ... It's been lot of ups and downs. …

All along I knew [the draft] was coming, but all along, I was focused on the Final Four. I didn't really pay much attention to what was after that. [The draft] kind of picked me up a little bit.
