I don't know why Miami didn't pull the string sooner if they wanted Mallett so bad
NFL.com news: Dolphins reportedly coveted Mallett but couldn't strike deal
We may never know if Miami had been known by other teams that they wanted Mallett bad and were willing to move up and maybe the Pats saw this and swept away a possible opposing starting QB in the division on purpose...not to mention need in a few years for us as well.
I remember hearing the stories of NE drafting Maroney at #1 in 2006 because they heard their rivals,the Colts wanted him badly and hoping he would fall,so they forced Indy to draft Addai instead.
I could see Bill being sly in watching his rivals draft desires and who they want and pulling the carpet out from underneath them.
