[QUOTE="Pack93z, post: 153899, member: 288"] Yes it is PFT article, however I think it makes the point of the effort it might take to replace a once in a lifetime QB... hence the reason for wanting Favre to stay as long as possible. Take the good with the Bad with Favre.... but the man has passion, love of the game, and still makes plays that few make. [url]http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm[/url] FRUITLESS SEARCH FOR MARINO SUCCESSOR CONTINUES Since Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino retired after the 1999 season, the team had burned plenty of draft picks in an effort to replace him. In 2000, they dealt a seventh-round pick for Jim Druckenmiller. In 2001, they sacrificed a 2002 sixth-rounder and a conditional seventh-rounder in 2003, and received in return Cade McNown and a 2002 seventh-rounder. In 2002, they gave up a 2003 seventh-rounder for Sage Rosenfels. In 2004, they sent a 2005 second-rounder to the Eagles for A.J. Feeley. In 2005, they shipped Feeley and a 2006 sixth-rounder to San Diego for Cleo Lemon. In 2006, they sent a 2006 second-rounder to Minnesota for Daunte Culpepper. In 2006, they sent a sixth-rounder to Detroit, which upgraded to a fifth-rounder, for Joey Harrington. Now, in 2007, the Fins have sent a fifth-rounder, which could move to a fourth-rounder, for Trent Green. But it could be the second-round pick that the team used in April to obtain former BYU quarterback John Beck that could bring this cycle to an end. Once Beck ascends to the job after the Green era concludes, he could hold the job for more than a year or two, which would allow the Dolphins to use their draft picks on something other than finding the next quarterback who, in the end, couldn't get it done. The irony here is that, when Marino was playing, the team's defense generally wasn't good enough to propel the team to the highest levels of success. After Marino left, the defense became dominant. And now that the pendulum on offense could be swinging back the other way, we've got a feeling that the defense will gradually begin to slide backward. [/QUOTE]
