Bad Weekend For Brandon Marshall


While Boston got to sit back and watch the Bruins/Red Sox/Celtics kick ass all weekend, Brandon Marshall had a tough weekend getting stabbed in the stomach by his girlfriend...

"The Miami Dolphins and the rest of the NFL world were stunned over the weekend when news surfaced early on Saturday morning that WR Brandon Marshall had been stabbed and his wife had been arrested in connection with the incident.

Marshall is the victim in this instance but, based on his past, some Dolphins players weren't surprised trouble found Marshall, writes Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald (SBNation)."

Although it is hard to blame someone for getting stabbed Marshall has such a bad track record that I wouldn't be surprised to find out that this was at least in someway his fault. I mean should should never stab someone, but Marshall just always seems to be surrounded by trouble. The Dolphins have come out and said that they have no plans to cut Marshall, but that could change quickly as more and more information to come out.

As for Marshall, he should recover in 2-4 weeks, and be fine if camps ever start.

With The 15th Pick In The NFL Draft The Miami Dolphins Select Select....

DP's Pick:
Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama

I figure the Dolphins are going to lose both Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown so Ingram is a guy who can come in and carry the ball 25 times a game. He has good hands and a great vision. He may not have homerun speed, but is extremely efficient. Watching him in college you can just see pro back in his game. He's tough, pretty durable and doesn't really have a glaring weakness. Great pick.

BMack's Pick:
Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama

I agree with DP that the Dolphins aren't going to bring Williams or Brown back, and the running game is such an important part of their offense they they have to make this pick. Ingram is a grinder, who I believe has the makeup to carry the load for an offense. He seems like the perfect fit for this offense, and I think we are far enough down the board where they would be comfortable making this pick. Now, if they could just find a good QB.
