Nobody knows what the hell the Dolphins will do tomorrow. But that hasn't stopped the likes of Todd McShay and Don Banks from telling us who they'll take. One very popular theory hitting the last stretch of draft mockery has been Illinois cornerback Vontae Davis becoming a Fin (McShay has Davis coming here, here's one, here's another, aaaaand another). This is mainly due to the fact that the Dolphins cornerback corps is made up of Will Allen, Eric Green, one of them sad hobo clowns, Nick Saban's anal cist (ie: Jason Allen) and a dude named Scorpio. Davis is arguably the best corner in the draft. But he's got two things going against him that could cause his stock to drop: one, his brother is Vernon Davis and Vernon Davis is a dick, and two, Vontae is no slouch in being a bit of a dick himself. That's double the dickishness going against this guy. So because of the double-dick problem, some draft experts have Davis falling out of the Top 10 and to the Dolphins at 25. He's a great athlete, is explosive, strong and could potentially be a shut down corner. But Davis is known for taking risks on the field, and his dickish antics got him demoted and benched a couple times at Illinois. And if there's one thing Bill Parcells hates, aside from your Soy latte-drinking Grey's Anatomy-watching pansy ass, it's dickish antics.
Some would say the Dolphins need to pull the trigger if Davis is there. The Miami secondary is pretty much the worst thing anyone has ever seen in the history of all things. And with the 2009 season having us facing T.O. twice, Randy Moss twice, Steve Smith, Marques Colston, Torry Holt, Andre Johnson, Santonio Holmes and maybe even Anquan Boldin, we're looking at a shit storm of Biblical proportions raining down on our defense if we don't do something about it.
But is Vontae worth the risk? Is taking another chance on a cornerback with a first round pick worth the risk? Our history is not all that hot when it comes to first-round corners. Or should we overlook all that and
Discuss. And please feel free to hijack the comments, as you did yesterday, and talk about how the girl from Small Wonder gives you a chub.
