What about Ginn? How's he progressing?

I think you're gonna have to learn to. As much as I hated him at scUM, their struggles over the past couple years can't be put on him. He typically performed pretty well and usually played well when it mattered most (last November not withstanding). You definately have to allow that he was tough as nails and a competitor. Plus he throws a good deep ball which is perfect for a WR like Teddy Ginn. I've said all along I think Henne will be a pretty good pro QB. He's a Parcells pick and I'll be shocked if he's not their starter come September.

Prepare to be shocked.

Eh, it's awfully early right now. But, if he performs well in training camp and in the preseason, I really think they'll go with him over Beck or McCown. He's not your typical green rookie. He was a four year starter in the Big-10 with a lot of big game experience. Plus like I mentioned before, you can't underestimate the Parcells factor.

He's getting very few reps in practice from what I've read. The Dolphins are making it awfully clear that they plan on making this a two-horse race at QB and Henne, at least as of now, isn't in it. I could see him maybe getting a start in November if the Dolphins are tanking but I don't see September happening.

I've read/heard the opposite, though admittedly, I don't follow the Dolphins or Lloyd Christmas all that closely.

Henne in mix for Fins starting job
Posted: Sunday June 08, 2008 08:29AM ET
For those assuming the Dolphins' quarterback competition was a two-man duel between John Beck and veteran Josh McCown, think again, coach Tony Sparano says. Sparano made it clear rookie quarterback Chad Henne is in the mix for the starting job after watching him take snaps with the first team in the first of Saturday's two practices. Beck and McCown had previously split the first-team snaps because of their experience edge and knowledge of the newly installed offense.
