Practice Squad
Jason Ferguson is facing a possible 8 game suspension for violating the league performing enhancement drug policy for the 2nd time in his career.
Ferguson was contimplating retirement if we didn't sign him for next season... who knows what we'll do now that he may be suspended for the first half of the season. Maybe we bring him back after his suspension... but either way, we need a NT now, more than ever.
This just backs-up what I have been saying, Miami needs to draft DT Dan Williams and another DT somewhere in the draft. Maybe the 4th round could be a good place to start for the other DT. But I do like DT Cam Thomas.
I love that Bill and Tony went out in FA's to get ILB/OLB Dansby, this gives Miami some Opp. in the draft. And Miami still can pick up another pick for QB Chad Pennington, by a trade deal now that he has sign with Miami. I do here alot of talks are on going with Ariz. Washington and the Rams for a 3rd round pick this year, but also with Seattle, San Fran., Jets, for a 4th round pick. This to me is also a big surprise, but I also here that the Eagle's are also talking with Miami. So I think that Panthers will get QB M.Vick, and the Ram will get QB McNabb if this happens.
1st Round Pick.
Safety Eric Berry, S, Tennessee - Scouting Report
Height: 6-0. Weight: 211.
Projected 40 Time: 4.36.
Combine 40 Time: 4.40.
Benchx225: 19. Vertical: 43.
Projected Round (2010): Top 7 Pick.
One of the best safety prospects to come along in a very long time. Eric Berry, a first-team All-American, had 72 tackles, 8.5 TFL, six passes broken up, three sacks and a whopping seven interceptions (two for touchdowns) as a mere sophomore. Safeties seldom go in the top five, but Berry could be an exception.
DE/OLB Jason Pierre-Paul, South Florida - Scouting Report
Height: 6-5. Weight: 270.
Projected 40 Time: 4.76.
Combine 40 Time: 4.64.
Benchx225: 19. Vertical: .
Projected Round (2010): Top 10 Pick.
There's not that much tape on Jason Pierre-Paul, so the Combine was his time to shine. Pierre-Paul ran a breath-taking 4.64 at 6-5 270. If Al Davis needed a defensive end, Pierre-Paul would be the No. 8 pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. Instead, he's likely to land in Jacksonville.
I hope one of the two players above will drop to Miami's 12th pick, we all know about S Eric Berry and his talent, but for him to drop to us at the 12th pick would be a dream. I like the speed and play ability of OLB Jason Pierre-Paul, I am saying OLB, because he will most likely play at that position in the NFL with his size and speed.
If not there, then I hope Miami goes after one of these to players.
DT Dan Williams, Tennessee - Scouting Report
Height: 6-2. Weight: 327.
Projected 40 Time: 5.25.
Combine 40 Time: 5.17.
Benchx225: 27. Vertical: .
Projected Round (2009): Top 20 Pick.
Dominant at the line of scrimmage this season, Dan Williams has 56 tackles, 8.5 TFL and two sacks in 11 games. With more teams switching to the 3-4, nose tackles are in high demand, so Williams could sneak into the first round.
Safety Earl Thomas, FS, Texas - Scouting Report
Height: 5-10. Weight: 208.
Projected 40 Time: 4.41.
Combine 40 Time: 4.44.
Benchx225: 21. Vertical: .
Projected Round (2009): Top 20 Pick.
Despite being just a redshirt freshman, Earl Thomas was an All-Big XII honorable mention. He broke up 11 passes, and also collected 70 tackles, three TFL and two picks.
2nd Round Pick.
If Miami don't draft a NT with the first pick.

Height: 5-11. Weight: 193.
Projected 40 Time: 4.50.
Combine 40 Time: 4.34.
Benchx225: 16. Vertical: .
Projected Round (2010): 1-2. (With most Team's in the NFL going to the spread Offense, Miami will need three good CB's that can cover.)
OLB Ricky Sapp, Clemson
Height: 6-4. Weight: 252.
Projected 40 Time: 4.62.
Combine 40 Time: 4.61.
Benchx225: 23. Vertical: .

3/1/10: Most expected Toby Gerhart to fail in the 40, but Gerhart surprised everyone by running a solid 4.53. He also had a 38-inch vertical.

WR Marcus Easley, Connecticut

Vertical: . Broad: 10-3.
Projected Round (2010): Was 4-5, now after the Combine I tink he is a 3-4 round pick.
I think with the three 6th round pick, and the two 7th round picks, Miami could go after a TE, a WR's and some Offense line.
