We have X on one side, that much is a given. The way the Dolphins have chosen to finish the equation is X + R = CB Bliss. It’s actually a big risk. Rowe has been a part time player for the first 4 years of his career. He was drafted in the 2nd RD in 2015 by the Philadelphia Eagles. Rowe played in all 16 games for the Eagles in his rookie year, starting 5. New England was in need of a CB in 2016 and sent a conditional 4th RD pick in 2018, which at best could have turned into a 3rd RD pick if performance measures were met. Why did Philly give up on their guy so quickly, so much so that they had to wait 2 years to get compensation back for him? Very odd.
At the NFL combine, Rowe was a monster. He ran 4.45 at 6’1 205, a 3.97 20 YD shuttle which is super quick for a guy that size, a 6.70 cone drill which shows elite agility and a 39″ vertical which shows elite explosion.. Maybe that’s why Philly took him in the 2nd RD, he Mike Mamula’d them. They pretty much gave up on the guy after one season.
Rowe started only 12 games in 3 seasons for the Patriots and played in 21 games. I’m not saying Eric Rowe can’t be the guy, but so far 2 teams, and make that 2 very solid organizations like the Eagles and Patriots can’t find a way to get this guy to work, it’s a little disconcerting. He has played well in practice and looked good in the preseason so far, but it just shows how poor our quality depth is at CB at the moment after Xavien Howard. Cornell Armstrong, Jalen Davis, Chris Lammons, Cordrea Tankersley and David Rivers. Chris Lammons has flashed some but is anyone here confident that he can handle the pressure of being picked on constantly as teams avoid throwing to the side X is on? That’s a lot to handle.
Some guys develop late, some guys just need the right opportunity to shine. It looks like Rowe is going to be given every opportunity and more to seize the job opposite X so it won’t be for a lack of chances that he doesn’t succeed here. Eric Rowe was a starter at CB in college at Utah. Who was that big Utah CB we had here that everyone loved? Was it Sun Sentinel, er Sean Smith? Smith was a lightning rod. Some hated him, some defended him. My recollection is I was a Sean Smith sympathizer. I thought he was unfairly treated by the haters although he was never a great player for us. He was at the very least a serviceable player for us. Smith started 56 games in 4 seasons for us. Can Rowe give us anything like that? The SS haters will hate this statement, but if Rowe can be as good as Sean Smith, I think we’ve done well.

X and Y?
(R)owe
It says plenty about Rowe that his defensive coach brought him to Miami when he left
Sure 3 teams by his 4th season is a lot
But that would mean more of coaches were dumping him
Flores didn’t dump Rowe
He cling to him…lol
A Sean Smith reference?
Clever way to spark controversy Mike…lol
Let me tell you, albeit I like Rowe, if he starts on the other side of Howard
I fully expect him to be a whipping boy for us in time (maybe not right away)
The other CB is always the whipping boy and when the other side is howard, it will probably be worse
People love ripping CBs and they have the toughest job in the nfl
It’s hard to consistently shut down nfl WRs
Hard?…it’s impossible
It’s just a thing
People bash CB #2
It will happen
But I think Rowe is a really good fit for us – not perfect but probably exactly what we need
Now if only we play McCain at nickel and linkage at safety, I will be whole…lol
I think Rowe is a fair comparison to Smith. Both are bigger corners, played at Utah, and both bounced around from team to team. Granted, Sean Smith had longer stays than Rowe.
Piggy – I don’t overestimate when coaches bring in former players. It’s simply familiarity. Did you think because his former coach brought Colonblow here that it was a good thing? Guys just go with guys they know, for better or for worse, in every team sport.
I block out former players like Colombo or Sean Smith from my memory and I would appreciate your assistance I continuing this trend
Speaking of old memories
Do you guys think Jason Allen should play corner or safety?
I’m torn

I just realized that Monday is Columbus Day
Does everyone have Monday off?
The guy blows for us, and we somehow have a holiday named after him WTF?
Every year we celebrate the worst OT in Dolphins history…lol
Pig — based on my experience Columbus Day is if you are a gov worker or teacher thing.
Well I think I’ll take Monday off
Weeeeeeee
I didn’t have the stomach to read this story
Its a crazy story, i read it, and i was left not knowing which part was more disturbing to me, the fact there was a botched in-home castration by and unlicensed professional, the fact that this isn’t the first time he has had a botched one, or the fact that he ant the recipient of those botched castrations met on a fetish website for people who either are enthralled with performing, viewing, and/or want to experience the pleasure of one.
Eewwwwwwwwwwwwww
MIke E — awesome take on Rowe. Know so much more about him than before….. and isn’t he the big Q in the secondary? We have 4 good to great safeties (whether playing slot DB or not) and one stud of a boundary CB.
They brought in the swarm thing….. but even in that two guys line-up in coverage on the outside. My hopes aren’t up on Rowe, but maybe he is at least good enough that one of those guys is not McCain or Minkah like last year. Just need legit NFL starter, even if below average.
Rowe should be able to hold his own, enough that he can cover one on one often enough. For sure he’ll get a lot of safety help.
Columbus Day is in October.
Geez guys, the guy’s name was Marc Colombo, no relation to Columbus
he was a great detective!
“I just have one more question . . . “
I told you I was trying to forget Mike!!!
Rowe has talent but injuries have hampered his career.

Concerning the Fest game.
Ok so my wife and I BOTH had suspicious spots our back which required surgery this summer.
Unfortunately, hers was much worse than mine, as it was a real skin cancer (melanoma), and they were thus, of course, concerned that it had spread to her lymph nodes. Very scary survival rates if that happens.
Mine was just something related to but not “real” skin cancer like hers. No biggie. They dug it out.
Still we both had to go through the biopsies, then the nuclear meds to trace the spread, then the surgery, then more biopsies, and now the rehab.
So I have had to put trips and stuff on hold until she is cleared for such activity.
We’re prohibited not only from physical twisting and exposure to sunlight, both forbidden still,
but even getting over-heated so that the excision sites would not be compromised.
I go to get my external stitches out of my back tomorrow. The ones inside will just get absorbed over 3 months. I’m hoping they let me start back in the gym lifting or at least running as I am already up near 240 and really need some workouts. (It did not lessen my extra large appetite.)
She has a jagged 5-inch scar on her shoulder as well as scars under her arm where they removed 3 nodes, but at next week’s recheck, I hope they at least let her jog and swim.
Anyway, our prognosis is good (as long as it is every time we go back), so I am hereby committing to attending the Fest. Both of us I mean. Barring unforeseen catastrophe, we will enjoy the great fun of Buster’s and the game.
Not sure if she can take the heat of the tailgating, so, sad to say, we might not make that fun event.
Sorry to have left you hanging so long, Stanger, but unless I find out differently soon, we now can say we’ll both be at the game cheering for Miami.
Sorry you’re both going through that. I’m actually going though something very similar. They removed about 9 moles from my arms, back and legs, and had to go deeper on about 5 of them. They had to an excision on one on my lower back and I’m having the stitches out Monday. I feel like they’re taking me apart piece by piece, and there’s still one they want to keep an eye for pigmentation. It gets darker, they’ll probably want to do an excision on that one too. I probably should have had a full body scan a lot earlier, never even thought about it. In the end, very happy that you will both be there!
Glad working out OK for you. I have a bunch of moles. Something to get checked on my next physical, even if no runs in the family. Should have seen my Dad… and none of them ever turned bad.
Naples — so sorry what you and your lovely have been going through. OD has been with similar. But hope you don’t mind if I smile a bit at how that this a really long story to say “we’re IN.” 🙂
And all the props to you for saying so. And if the heat is too much at the tailgate….. you guys can head in early. Other than some of the big stores no AC, but a whole lot more cooler. Much more than the in the shade outside. And if turns out can’t make don’t worry about it either.
Thanks, guys.
Go Dolphins.
When has a home castration gone right?
When has any castration ever gone right?
Wait … they castrate hogs, don’t they?Please ignore the above.
Naples, wishing you and your wife all the best.
Thanks buddy.
Looking forward to meeting you some day.
Same here.
How can you fuck this up?

Hey Mike E! Not to start a book club round table or anything but I have just started book two of the Chronicle of the unhewn thrown “The Providence of Fire” by Biran Staveley and I can officially say I have a new fantasy writer that I like.
Better than if you were reading a book titled “How to get your dick out of a vacuum.”

That was very interesting and likable, Rockphin. Thank you for sharing, Brother! I think Ryan Fitzpatrick is a good and down to Earth dude.
I like what he said about being invisible because I’d probably do the same lol. I def would just like to watch my kids in social situations. Watch them in their own little world.

Good Morning FMer’s
with our crowded wr corps i wonder if Stills is expendable? just cut him because i doubt there’s much trade value due to his distractions. He’s just not that good and when you pile all the other crap on top it may be best to part ways.
Stills has never been a standout player for us, not sure if that’s on the Gase/Tannehill tandem or Stills himself.
never been a stand out player for us? I don’t care what you think about his politics but you can’t say this. It’s just not true. Stills has scored more TD’s for this team than any other player (non-QB) since he got here. That is being a stand out player.
he scored 6 TDs last year, less than 600 yards receiving and he was our #1 rec!
excuse me but that blowzzzz!
#82 in yards for all recs in the NFL #38 in TDs.
that’s not very good for our #1 wr
ITS GAME DAY BITCHES!
GO DOLPHINS!!
like i said rock, not sure if that’s due to tanny/gase, lack of scheme or stills himself however when you add the distractions he doesn’t seem worth the bother especially since we have a deep wr corp, are you going to dump Brice Butler or Preston Williams to keep Stills??
there may be some surprise cuts when we get to 53
everyone is harping on the fitz /rosen battle but ruddock looked damn good! if we stash him on the PS we may lose him.
I remember when i was a kid in the early 60s i watched football and thought to myself, there’s no damn way i could ever play that game. “how can i get my shoulders that big” i didn’t know they had shoulder pads!
Happy birthday Mike E!

Holy shit…Mike E got older…how is that possible!?!
Happy Birthday, Mike and ditto on the thanks for all you do.
Thanks Phelon!
I find myself agreeing with ORob’s math regarding Stills. Maybe it’s a bias based on his politics, but he just isn’t that impressive. He was adequate on bad teams.
He serves a purpose in our offense. He’s the big play guy that somehow manages to get behind DB’s when hey know that’s all he can do well. We need that, he keeps them honest and makes them pay if they try and crowd the box and go one on one with him. He’s never been a #1 guy and you could argue he’s not even a #2. It doesn’t matter. He’s fine, you just don’t overpay a guy like him. We have so many questions at WR, is Wilson healthy, is Grant healthy, will Parker ever be more than he’s been?
Of course its political. Every time we’ve lost our big threat receiver the O has struggled the following year. Wallace and Marshall are the last 2 I can remember.
Happy B’day Mike.
You guys are always talking about Mike being older than dirt, but since he’s like in the middle of the pack here…
I must’ve missed the inside joke.
Thanks Steve!
The LA Dodgers have scored 224 more runs than they’ve allowed. INSANE!
Blame it on the juiced up balls and these young guys that keep coming up. In years past they’ve paid a lot for vets, but look at the roster now, and you’ll see a plethora of home grown talent. The only ones not are Muncy (30+ homers) and Pollack (10 or so)
With the recent signing of Grant, the debate about taking care of their own is once again a topic of discussion. Most recently Landry, Miller and OV got paid big bucks else where.
Does anyone want any of those guys back, for what they signed for or otherwise?
Nope

No man you are wrong, he was tied for 19th in TD’s last year. Tied with;
Larry Fitzgerald, Odel Beckahm, Amari Cooper, Julian Edelman, A.J. Green, Alshon Geffery
Do they all suck to or is it just the Politics?
Oh, and he wasn’t our No. 1. He was just our most productive over the past 3 years.
Bargain!
Happy B-day Mike E!
Did you see my post about not getting your tallywhacker stuck in a vacuum cleaner? Oh, wait that was some other dickhead.
Thanks Rock – I saw your post about Brian Staveley. Thanks man, I’ll check his books out
Bad team, blah blah blah
Kenny Stills has scored more TD’s for the Dolphins since he arrived than any other Dolphin. (Ajayi beat him by one TD for one year, but the aggregate is Stills has scored the most)

I expect Ford to go on IR, but we still have Parker, Grant, Wilson, Williams, Hurns and Butler. Stills could be the odd man out, bargain or not.
Not really sure I care what we do at WR. Getting rid of Stills or Parker may benefit us down the road, with cap space, while allowing the young guys a shot.
What we need are multiple guys to step up and get it done on 3rd down. The cheats O is great, because you cant get them off the field. That’s what I want from our O.
Happy B-Day Mike E!!!!
Thanks Mike!
Stills>alley>blowjobs for crack.
LOL
I believe with the potential of Geisiki in this offense and also being able to line up Drake outside, Stills could be expendable in a trade. If it came down to cutting him then I’m keeping him. Like Mike E said, he does bring value to the team. If Geisiki is playing like a stud and our WR’s stay healthy but our record is not that great, he could be a mid season trade.
Grant and Wilson can be the ones taking the top off of defenses.
Wilson needs to be healthy. I’ll be thrilled if we get 80-90% of what he was doing last year but get that all season. Grant has to be healthy too. Grant is dangerous deep, but Stills is better at that, been doing that for years.
Internet on an airplane is pretty cool.
Happy B-Day, Mike!! Do you still count, or did you lose track sometime in the late Neolithic age while playing with your newly polished stone weapons?

I’m just a caveman, your strange machines and lights confuse and frighten me. I don’t understand things like hemorrhoid cream and umbrella hats. But one thing I do know is it’s not a great situation when you have a guy publicly calling out the team owner. It’s just not good business…

To the dismay of many on here, First Pick now has 2020 loaded. Had to beat Wyoming to it, LOL!
Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 13: Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia, A+
Round 2 Pick 13: Tyler Baidasz, C, Wisconsin, A
Round 2 Pick 30: Alaric Jackson, OT, Iowa, A
Round 3 Pick 13: Jalen Thompson, SS, Washington State, A
Round 4 Pick 13: Lorenzo Neal, DT, Purdue, A+
Round 4 Pick 19: Jon Runyan, OG, Michigan, A+
Round 6 Pick 13: Tyler Johnson, WR, Minnesota, A+
Round 6 Pick 27: Daelin Hayes, DE/OLB, Notre Dame, A+
Round 7 Pick 13: Paulson Adedo, CB, Stanford, A+
Round 7 Pick 29: Josh Uche, OLB, Michigan, A+
All the top DE’s were gone and we need to continue to build our OL and OL depth. Also went SS/FS in 3rd as I think Rashad’s time is winding down.
Wow, first pick has us picking at 13? The would be just fricken awesome if we could get Fromm at 13. (will never happen, but it would be awesome.)
Lorenzo Neal at DT? I thought he was a full back? LOL
Still looking for that CB opposite X.

Only 9 days left until Cut down day. (this year there is only one cut down day, from 90 all the way to 53)
That’s been the case for a few years now.
Huh, you are correct of course but I didn’t remember it being that way last season.
1,184 guys all being cut at once. That is a LOT of dross to sift through to find the “gold” to stash on the practice squads. That makes for one hectic weekend for the personnel staff!
https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/armando-salguero/article234247442.html
Interesting article. I know we are a very young team, but I didn’t realize that 60 out of our 90 guys are practice squad eligible. WOW

I don’t get releasing Alonso this year
Yeah, I’d be surprised too. I expect we keep him this year, and next year is a maybe depending on how the youngins progress.
https://sports.yahoo.com/kenny-stills-responds-to-jay-z-songs-by-playing-nas-in-dolphins-locker-room-160540616.html
this is ridiculous IMO whats up with Flores siding with jay z who isnt a dolphin and never played football, over a WR that is on our team? this is distractions no team needs IMO
football is a team sport, and the coach alienating our players is not conductive to team sports
Flores will learn the hard way, a lesson he should have already learned
Gase alienated his players too, how did that work out?
Flores needs to put a stop to this, otherwise he may give the impression he wants to tank for tua, something i never imagined he would want to do
Jay z and Nas are not part of the team, and not uniting the team either, hopefully Flores realizes this isnt good football, and coaches the team to be committed to the team and to each other.
And to me this looks like good natured ribbing back and forth. It’s one of the things sane people may do to alleviate tension over disagreements. But yeah, hopefully Flores hasn’t lost the team and appear to be tanking for Tua!!! lol
Naples, hopefully everything works out for the best for You and Your wife, best of luck
Mike Happy Birthday , may your day be special
Thanks David!
no worries, just dont have too many birthdays, they make You old, lol,
Thanks David.
BTW i like Eric Rowe, and I feel he can be a starting CB for us =)
and i have always liked Preston WIliams,
if he didnt get into legal trouble, he should have been a high second rounder IMO
for the folks not liking Stills, consider our top receiver was Amendola and he is gone. first round pick Devante Parker had
24 receptions
309 yards
12.9 YPC
1 TD
and is now having foot problems
1 SMH
also Grant and Wilson finished the year on IR, and had stats that were not in the top 50.
so Stills is clearly our top WR, and has done nothing wrong.
if we were to send him packing,
we got Preston Williams , a trio of injured receivers, and maybe a new guy. i sure Fitzpatrick can toss picks with or without Stills, but Rosen will need WR;s
we need Stills and his ability to blow the top of a defense , he is our only deep threat that lines up every week
Happy B’Day Mike.
Slow down; you are catching up to me.
Thanks Naples – Hope I never catch you!
wow that is deep Mike.
Thanks.
Preston Williams is first round flop Devante Parkers replacement IMO
Happy B’Day Mike E.. keep up the good work.. GO FINS !!!
Thanks Toba!
Gesiki will be lucky if he makes the team form what I have seen so far this PS..
Stop it
WUT ?! O’Leary , Allen, and Durham Smythe have all looked better than he has,.. Hey I’m pulling for him but …. I dunno.. walford should also be gone..
agreed, Gesicki doesnt look like an NFL TE
It’s Mike’s B-day. That your present? 🙂
LOL< just a thought that popped in my head,, sorry Mike.. 🙂
Parker was the Dolphins first round pick in 2015
he only has 2 TDs for his career, thats pathetic for a first round pick, he probably will be cut because nobody would ever trade for him
He has 9 TD’s, but we all know he’s been a huge disappointment
correct, sorry, he only has 2 TD the last 2 years
i sure Fitzpatrick can toss picks with or without Stills, but Rosen will need WR;s
11 TD / 14 Int
Rosen can throw ints better than Fitz
Hard to judge Rosen with that team last year.
i doubt that, FItzpatrick has 12 years of tossing interceptions, Rosen might not ever catch him, lol

She walked away with a confused look and came back later to argue the point and I busted out the calculator which blew her mind. LOL Silly twit.

I’m so old i remember “party lines.”
You’d pick up the phone and someone would be talking, and they’d say “we’re on the line.” or something like that, so you would hang up and wait a while and try again.
I remember my dad was so proud that it made us look wealthy when we were one of the first in town to get a 2-family party line when most people shared with 4 or even 6.
damn, i dont even remember that
I remember when a line would get messed up and when you picked up the phone to call someone you’d hear people talking. That was a lot of fun. Did you hear something? Yeah that was weird. Stay quiet for a bit more then make a noise again until they decided to hang up. LOL

If you want to get down, get down on the ground, cocaine

the league cannot suspend Chung, with or without pay, based on these allegations.
Chung’s alleged misconduct does not fall under the Personal Conduct Policy. The substance-abuse policy covers criminal conduct involving substances of abuse, and the substance-abuse policy contains clear language on what can, and thus can’t, be done to a player who merely faces criminal charges, whether misdemeanor or felony.
First, nothing can be done until the charges are resolved. The league can’t, and won’t, conduct its own investigation and take action independent of the criminal process.
Second, Chung can’t be suspended with pay pending resolution of the charges. It’s simply not available under the substance-abuse policy. The Commissioner-Exempt list applies only to potential Personal Conduct Policy violations involving alleged crimes of violence.
Third, Chung will be subject to NFL discipline only if he ultimately is found responsible for a drug-related offense. This requires a conviction, a guilty plea, a no-contest plea, or entry into a diversion program. If Chung fights the charges and wins exoneration, the league can do nothing.
Unless the wheels of justice move more quickly than they usually do, this case won’t be resolved until at the 2019 season, at the earliest. Thus, the league will do nothing — indeed, the league can do nothing — until the case ends, at the earliest. While this doesn’t prevent the Patriots from making roster decisions in light of the allegations against Chung, it definitely keeps the league from imposing any sort of sanction.
Wow. I guess we can hope it resolves itself and he gets suspended right before the playoffs….
oh
ok
Rock, yeah that’s why on cut day it’s a whirlwind for teams looking to pick up players at positions they need help at. The cuts don’t all happen at the same time though, they come in droves and then teams start signing players then cut some more etc.
