Dolphins Camp
Day one of training camp is in the books. Dallas Thomas has already been replaced, lol, and Michael Preston is our start WR. Forget DeVante Parker, Greg Jennings, Kenny Stills or the “Juice”, Preston caught two long bombs on the first day of camp and has been elevated to hero. This will be day two of practice today meaning there won’t be any hitting again. All we really want to see is the hitting. Dallas Thomas won’t lose anything until the pads come on nor will any one else. It’s one thing to know your assignments and be technically sound but as a lineman you have to move bodies so we will soon see who does.
It sounds like by all accounts that the energy is high, the attitude of the team is excellent and that even talk of having lofty expectations isn’t causing anyone to run away screaming. Word came out yesterday from Coach Philbin that NDominant Suh himself was taking 2nd round pick Jordan Phillips under his wing and that Suh had him working out with him. No problem there, thanks big man.
Suh is here, everything is different now!
No you di’ent
#strongertogether
All in all day one was taken as a positive, onward and upward for these Dolphins!
Happy Camping Dolphans
Finsmob Unleashed 
First! GO DOLPHINS!!! Gotta admit, I never saw Michael Preston coming.
Is that another hand joke? LOL
Lol- I guess if you happen to be looking the other way when it, you know- HAPPENS, you might not see it…
You still haven’t, it was one practice without pads.
It was a joke D. SHEESH!
D
All the stories and comments in training camp about this guy working with the one’s or two’s is all nothing. It’s meaningless at this point. That’s why I was talking about the Mets all day. Hopefully they’re not meaningless soon.
to 95% of us here they are, just sayin’
Maybe so, but that 5% make up the majority of the comments, so stick it! lol
I’m with son, didn’t even realize meets still were around. Still a major league team or are they triple a now? 🙂
Mets
Don’t get your blood pressure up old man. The report to me was more concerning of Taylor having problems concerning him. Still I think it was have a guy like Preston show will that is a bonus. If they are having trouble cutting down the WR group then we have a great problem
While the 6’5 Preston was making big catches we heard that the 6’5 Streeter was dropping some. There could be a spot for one of these bigger receivers. Laron Byrd is 6’4.
That’s a Big Byrd
Mike,
You think the Mets go quietly into the trade deadline?
You think Suh could knock one out of Citi Field?
Yes. The Mets need some power, he would definitely help.
Put Wake in the #5 spot and we’d be set!
LOL@ D – are they still a major league team

There ARE MIAMI DOLPHINS THINGS to discuss fuck the sorry ass 2nd Class Mets in the ass with a splintered board. That is all.
“NDominant Suh himself was taking 2nd round pick Jordan Phillips under his wing and that Suh had him working out with him. No problem there, thanks big man.”
That’s good to hear. And yeah Suh is big. One of the beat reporters on QAM beat reporters kept going on about you can’t realize how big he is till you see him in person. Quipped that when the D-Line is huddled Suh makes Wake look like a DB.
I found out some interesting info. last night. A cousin of mine was drafted by the Miami Dolphins in 1969. He was a center out of Boston College. He broke his back and that was the end of his career.
My biological father was out of my life at a young age so I didn’t know much of his family. But I’ve reconnected with some of them over the years through some relatives I do know. Pretty cool!
That is too cool and how ironic that you became a Phin fan early on not knowing this.
Hmm, divine intervention or pure coincidence? 😉
Natural Selection.
Plus Tim has some aqua DNA.

Tannehill with the deep ball completion to Michael Preston. Preston is easily the most impressive receiver in camp so far.
Because Parker isn’t practicing. It will be nice if Preston emerges and Parker breaks out. Good things…

RB Jay Ajayi has nice run…he’s had a nice day today, maybe his best of entire offseason
Boulder, I wouldn’t read much into Misi @ SLB just yet. Coaches want most units to be versatile.
I agree. But I’ve thought all offseason that we could upgrade the MLB position so if sheppard can beat out misi, I’m all for it.
Are they down to the 53 yet? LOL
Yup, 37 guys walked off the field.
Chris Perkins ✔ @chrisperk
LaRon Byrd beats Will Davis deep on nice TD pass from Matt Moore. Went maybe 50 yds.
Will davis and Taylor seem to be a couple of real gems.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly now1 minute ago
Matt Moore with a deep touchdown pass to Laron Byrd. Caught him in stride. Will Davis got roasted on the play.
Rut Roh Ajayi
Jarvis Landry is considered the “front-runner” to keep the Dolphins’ punt return job in 2015.
Landry will assume every-down duties at receiver, but he remains the Fins’ best option on kick and punt returns, as well. Landry ranked fourth in the NFL in kickoff return average as a rookie. Landry’s low aDOT (Average Depth of Target) in some ways caps his fantasy ceiling, but he set a 105-catch pace over the final nine weeks of 2014 and has added value in return-yardage leagues.

It’s early, but I told y’all don’t be surprised if Kelvin Sheppard is our MLB
I’d be surprised. He’s on his 3rd team in 4 years, he sucked as a Colt in stopping the run. Plus it would mean Misi is flopping in the middle….ugh!
Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley 37m37 minutes ago

Omar said it. And we all know Omar knows line plays….he tells us so all the time….he has never really SHOWN any knowledge of line play but he certainly has told us he knows enough….
Boulder
Chris was watching the 1 on 1 position competitions not the 11 on 11
at this point I would be worried if the D line wasn’t tearing the new O line a new one!
yea. without pads you really can’t make a judgment. Actually, I’d wait until after the 2nd preseason game before deciding on the o-line. I just hope by then its not too late to get someone in here.
Nothing is being decided on day of TC. This is practice though the reporters tweet it like it’s a game.
Ya sure about that….see below, Philbin looks like he’s already made up his mind. 😉
The guy holding that clipboard has the final depth chart on it. LOL
LMAO, yup….that’s Boulder. 😉
Seahawks signed QB Russell Wilson to a four-year, $87.6 million contract extension that includes $60 million guaranteed.
Wilson gets a $31 million signing bonus and is signed through 2019, his age-31 season. The deal is short compared to other quarterback contracts, but gives Wilson another potential bite at the free-agency apple when he’s still theoretically in his prime as a quarterback. Wilson’s $21.9 million annually in new money makes him the second-highest paid quarterback behind Aaron Rodgers ($22 million). There were whispers Wilson was aiming for a fully-guaranteed contract. He settled for 68.5 percent of it guaranteed, which is still better than any other quarterback. The Seahawks will now turn their attention to MLB Bobby Wagner.

“The Juice got past being a green rook quickly and turned on the burners down the stretch.”
Yeah there was no rookie wall with him. He just worked HARDER. I remember reading last year how he was already becoming an outspoken leader in the WR meeting room with all those vets that are no longer here. He talked the talk and backed it up with hard work and dedication getting better as the year progressed.
I am so glad we picked him last year.
Rock On Juice! Show Parker how it’s done.

Armando Salguero @ArmandoSalguero
I have it on good authority that the dolphins and Drew Rosenhaus have not even begun to talk about an Evan Mathis contract.
Armando Salguero @ArmandoSalguero
Evan Mathis is waiting for right opportunity & money and is willing to wait. A vet like him isn’t lessened by missing some camp.
Armando Salguero @ArmandoSalguero
Dolphins want to see Turner, Douglas, Thomas do before making any move. And they don’t want the youngsters to worry about a vet addition.
they might start pouting if we sign mathis 🙂
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 2m2 minutes ago
Spotted discussing a certain free agent OG (Evan Mathis) after practice today was Mike Tannenbaum & Drew Rosenhaus. LET’S DO THIS!
If you read the tweets by Armando this tweet by Omar is BS.
This is why you can’t believe a fraction of the shit these so called reporters say. They just throw shit to the wall to see if it sticks. So they let Omar hear them talking about Mathis? Will they include him in on negotiations as well?
tim,
neither omar nor armando know for sure what these guys are talking about. They might be talking about this years cheerleader squad for all we know 🙂
LOL, right, did you see the Armando tweets GD posted above?
I did and I don’t believe it. I don’t think anyone within the organization would let mando know whether they’re talking to drew about mathis or not. Even if they are they won’t say they are. they gain nothing by doing that.

Interesting!

The steelers may have been the only team opposing the CBa
But there was defiantly a lot of talk about how powerful Goodell was under the CBa
That’s why Brady is fucked. 🙂
I like the approach on Mathis….wait n see. He’s 34 in Nov., missed 7 games last year.
We’ll start to know more about our present OG’s when the pads go on tomorrow. But don’t expect miracles just yet, after all Suh is a wrecking ball, which will make Mitchell effective too.
Any OG on this team or facing this team in 2015 will have their hands full, literally!
There’s no rush in signing him, as long as no one else signs him.
Please remember that 2yrs ago when Douglas was a LG he pretty much Dominated Leonard Williams in their 1 on 1 match ups. Most analysts labeled Williams as the best player in this years draft.
I’d love to see that as a regular occurance once again!
Thanks Tim. Am I allowed to thank you for posting something about the Mets?
LOL
The deal probably won’t go through because we’ll want the Reds to take some of Bruce’s contract but we’ll sell it that it was because Bruce had an ear ache recently that we were concerned about.
splintered board….HA!
from mando
“Franks missed three of his 10 kicks today as he competes with Sturgis”
If anyone signs Mathis
It might not be until right before season starts
he’ll sign with some team before that.
I heard SF was a possibility.

Dennis Hickey @DennisHickeyMiamiDolphins
Right now we’re not looking at bringing in any guards because we like who we have. But the Mets should make that deal Bruce for Wheeler.
Listen, top Miami brass are interested in what the Mets do, so I don’t see any harm in being interested. lol
Stephen Ross @ StephenRossMiamiDolphins

Mets reportedly discussing Cespedes
sounds like the seahawks broke the bank for an average qb. i am sure they are gonna love that investment when beast mode is gone and the def is done.
$60 million guaranteed. Exactly what we gave Suh, who is dominant at his position.
Horseheads? Hey where you from? I grew up in Goatballs, how bout you? The south part of Rabbitturds. Cool! LOL

J/k- I heard someone actually tweeted that…
The kid was also the one with the foot on the pedal. Richardson was napping.
He put the gun to Richardson’s head and said “DRIVE FASTER MOTHER F&C*&R”
Preston is off to a nice start but he isn’t a rookie and has been on a NFL roster before (Titans).
Here are his first two NFL TD (his only ones) in the same game including a game tying one late in the game (check the game page and look at the videos that say Preston).
http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2013121509/2013/REG15/cardinals@titans#menu=gameinfo|contentId%3A0ap2000000298600&tab=videos
Yeah he’s either a camp star or a late bloomer. I don’t put much stock into the reports from these practices because it’s mano-a-mano with no game plan or safety help. Everything is basically one on one. You see it all the time, a guy catches like 20 TDs in TC and when the season starts he can’t get open and the CB who was beaten all the time doesn’t give up 50 yard TDs every week. LOL
LOL on last sentence. So true.
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2531950-yoenis-cespedes-trade-rumors-latest-buzz-speculation-surrounding-tigers-star
Wow, the Mets might go for two bats.
http://www.nydailynews.com/blogs/baseballinsider/sources-mets-exploring-trades-today-blog-entry-1.2310696
I’d be happy if we get one big bat, but I’d be thrilled if we got 2. I’m thinking our minor league cupboard will be bare, but you have to go for it sometimes, and I admire that, and am all for it.
We have the pitching and to waste it would be a shame. You never know how long they’re all going to stay together. It’s not like if we don’t win this year that’s it, we’ll still have some pieces together.

Cespedes to the Mets. He’s having a GREAT year and he has great memories of Mets ballpark from HR Derbry 🙂 His strikeouts have been up, but currently 4.0 WAR makes him a very valuable addition. My entire family still wears our Cespedes gear. He’s fun when he’s ‘happy’.
They made the deal?
