Nope, after hearing everything, he is a terrible LT and this that is all I care about, no thank you. We have Massie at RT for next year and don't need another bad LT.

I have doubts abut how he handles what life and circumstance bring to his door . His mental makeup screams buyer beware .

No effing way. He's not very good for starters, and one thing that I absolutely can not tolerate is drama queens, in personal life, professional life or on the teams I root for. As much as I hate Incognito (and it's a deep hate) Martin's actions that are known are incredibly suspect. He's not a leader.

WHEN we get our LT of the future, I want him to be the leader of the OL.

I wouldn't, not even as a bench player. I think it is telling that not many in that locker room came to his defense. As reprehensible a human being as Incognito seems to be, he had by far the most support from his teammates (at least from what I read).

Also, he doesn't appear to be a very good OL anyway.

Pass. Get one in the draft.

I pretty much agree with everything you say. Good post.

Not a word about his on-field potential. Ever seen him play?

I'd look into it. He's been in the league 2 years and been a starter for 2 years, he has some talent. It's hard to tell what the "real' story is.

The guy made a mistake walking away from his team. Do you consider that worse than a guy like Dwash that gets suspended multiple games by putting himself ahead of the team? Martin didn't break any laws.

Guys make mistakes, he can play, I'd give him a chance.

No! He is worse than Levi Brown.

Yep!!!

There's a reason the Fins acquired Bryant McKinnie! Martin was baaaaaaaaaaaaaad & snitches won't be tolerated in the lockerroom. The only way he would be on my team is if the Fins traded us a 1st or 2nd rounder. :D

I don't think he's good enough to take the risk of potential chemistry issues.

Nice kid, I think Incognito is a huge *******, but in the end I don't think Martin is wired to succeed in the NFL either.

No one will touch him...except Belichik who will sign him and he will become a perennial All Pro.

Hes not very good bottom line. He started on the Fins by default at RT, was garbage, moved him to LT to replace Long and was so bad they signed 48 year old Bryant McKInnie to replacem him earlier this season. Not concidentally at the same time his "issues" popped up.

Oh he started and is young so he must be good! sigh......

All the drama spells low round pick for him. 5-7rd. I have not watched him play this year, but if the Cards coaches were to trade for him then I would think the guy had to show some talent. I am hoping that we draft our LT OTF in the upcoming draft. Matthews and Koujo are my favorites so far.

Kind of amazed by how many people think he's "crazy" or a "drama queen." Incognito's a crazy SOB, and we all knew that with him in our division for so many years.

With that said, I have no problems with questioning his talent. I'd be willing to give up a 7th rounder for him to replace Sowell or Potter, but nothing more. We need to look elsewhere to shore up LT.

I'd like to know how we got all these Dolphin fans who KNOW he's terrible. I'd almost bet nobody has seen him play nearly enough to know if he's any good, or not.

But I guess it's pretty easy to say a guy sucks without really having a clue.

I don't know if he was good but teams don't usually start their worst players, especially rookies.

I'd take him over Sowell right now.
