Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h Remember this is the LAST WEEK to attend Dolphins training camp practice. So don't get caught slipping.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
The Dolphins are working out Brady Quinn & John Skelton along with Rex Grossman. Plan is to add a veteran QB this week.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
Dolphins OT Jason Fox will be sidelined a few days due to a chest injury.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
Mike Gillislee will be sidelined a few days with a hamstring injury. He suffered it yesterday. That's 4 hurt tailbacks now.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 2h
#Dolphins RB Mike Gillislee (hamstring), OT Jason Fox (chest), DT Micah Reynolds (knee) out multiple practices.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 2h
#Dolphins sign RB Cameron Marshall & waive QB Brock Jensen.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
Chris McCain is not practicing today. He has his right leg in a compression sleeve.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
Cameron Marshall, who was here earlier in the offseason but got cut, has been re-signed because of all the tailback injuries.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
The Dolphins are down to Lamar Miller & Orleans Darkwa as the only HEALTHY tailbacks who have been here more than a day.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
Pat Devlin is here practicing.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2h
Charles Clay is out here running routes with his right knee in a brace. That's new. Not that he's working. The brace.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Cortland Finnegan is missing his second straight practice. He recently had a death in his family.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
This unit will be the group I'm focused on today because changes & competition is taking place.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
This is new. The Dolphins are doing a wrap up drill with Oklahoma drill emphasis. Just no taking them to the ground.
BuwiLDbIAAEK9Oe-1.jpg:large


Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
LBs and RBs doing 1-on-1 tackling. Still working game-specific deficiencies from Falcons loss.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
RBs Lamar Mller & Cameron Marshall just sidestepped LBs Andrew Wilson & Philip Wheeler. Sweet moves.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Miller just got by Wheeler again...RBs doing very well. Doing too well if ur rooting for the LBs.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Dion Sims just trucked Jason Trusnik, making media members (including me) curse.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
One linebacker is an adequate tackler. Koa Misi. Everyone else sucks. BIG PROBLEM.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
This drill is by far the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen. These linebackers can not tackle.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Joe Philbin is watching this drill up close and personal. He better know this is a MAJOR PROBLEM!
BuwjTRIYAMpDaO-1.jpg:large


Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Ellerbe nice job vs. Kyle Miller...Jenkins nice job vs. Brett Brackett...Trusnik stops Miller...LBs rallying

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
WRs & DBs doing similar drill...DBs seem to be working on pursuit angle, LBs working on wrapping up

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Koa Misi nice job stopping Orleans Darkwa, Wheeler stops Cameron Marshall, Jenkins stops Damien Williams.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
LBs finished strong but were very shaky early. MLB Koa Misi might have been best among LBs, Lamar Miller best RB.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Damien Williams is working today. That's impressive considering his ankle injury looked serious.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Jamar Taylor is starting for the absent Cortland Finnegan, but then he goes to nickel and Will Davis goes to the boundary.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
No Cortland Finnegan again today. CB Jamar Taylor on right side w/starters.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
#Dolphins also have S Jimmy Wilson w/starters in place of Reshad Jones. Did that a little yesterday.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
11-on-11...1s vs. 1s...didn't see this yesterday for first time all camp.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
WRs are Matthews & Damian Williams...TEs are Kyle Miller, Dion Sims.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Mike Wallace just beat Dannell Ellerbe on what I'll call the Matthews play. (wink wink)

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Ryan Tannehill just scramble for a 7-yard gain on a QB option.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Wheeler just knocked the mess outta Lamar Miller. Biggest hit of camp. Half speed drill, full speed hit. Wow!

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
T'hill to Wallace...Kyle Miller very nice job picking up Louis Delmas who was crashing in from edge. Nice play.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
T'hill about 5 yds on read option...Btw, Hartline & Wallace active for this 11-on-11.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
2nd offense vs. 1st defense...RB Knowshon Moreno right...short gain, maybe 2 yds

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Knowshon Moreno just took an 11-on-11 snap and ran through a tackle. First time I've seen him look good.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 1h
Dion Jordan just beat his man in the goal line and would have produced a would-be safety on Tannehill.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 59m
Just saw an effective zone run from Knowshon Moreno. I'm not getting intrigued and optimistic about his return.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 58m
Knowshon Moreno runs behind his blocks better than Lamar Miller. He's a zone runner. Impressive to watch.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 57m
Ryan Tannehill just threw a backward pass to Damien Williams that wasn't caught, and would have been a safety (backed in work today).

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
2nd offense vs. 1st defense...RB Knowshon Moreno right...short gain, maybe 2 yds

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Now 2nd offense vs. 2nd defense...Matt Moore at QB...Moore to Matthews for maybe 8 yds across middle

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
S Reshad Jones working with 2nd team.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
1st offense vs. 2nd defense...Will Davis and Jalil Brown at CBs...T'hill inc to Lynch...hi pass but shoulda been caught

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
OL did nice job protecting...held blocks for about 4 sec on that play

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Lamar Miller nice burst over right tackle...Miller looks good. But I'm still not sold on him as starter.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Knowshon Moreno nice run up middle w/1st team...decent burst...maybe 5-6 yds on that play. Promising.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
2nd offense vd. 3rd defense now...Knowshon middle for short gain, maybe 2 yds. Nice job by defense.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
S Don Jones working w/3rd team. Think he was 2nd team coming outta offseason workouts.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 55m
The way Charles Clay is limping around in his brace I highly doubt he'll be playing in the exhibition season. Dion Sims needs to get ready.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Lobato to Thigpen on short pass to sideline...maybe 3 yds...Moreno most promising aspect of that drill.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Moreno looks much better than he did yesterday. I'm thinking he's starting RB on opening day.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Ideally #Dolphins start Moreno and have Miller as change-of-pace RB.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1h
Special teams segment...tackling drill one part of field, KO return drill on other field...OL-DL working technique

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 59m
Think this is longest OL starters been intact -- C Satele, RG Thomas, RT James, LG Colledge, LT Albert.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 58m
Always say this, but nobody bounces around the field like Matt Moore. Looks like a guy who truly enjoys his job.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 43m
The Dolphins are doing goal line work in 11-on-11s today and Tannehill needs to process one second faster. He's usually good at this.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 54m
CB Kevin Fogg has right knee wrapped in ice and currently not participating..

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 52m
11on-11...1s vs. 1s...maybe red zone drill...

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 42m
Jason Trusnik is getting some work with the starting defense.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 37m
Jordan Tripp with a nice goal line stop. He really read the play well.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 52m
T'hill inc to Kyle Miller...catch on sideline but feet not inbounds...T'hill flushed from pocket and had to roll right

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 51m
T'hill to Sims...maybe 4 yds on right side...

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 51m
S Jimmy Wilson still w/1st team defense

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 50m
Lamar Miller up middle...appeared to be TD...maybe 8 yds

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 50m
Knowshon Moreno up middle...maybe 3 yds or so...he's getting work w/starters

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 49m
Knowshon on read option off left tackle...maybe 3 yds...haven't yet noticed Hartline or Wallace in this drill

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 48m
Moreno left...offside defense

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 47m
2nd OL -- C Brenner, RG Turner, RT Garner, LG Shelley Smith LT Tony Hills. Remember, LT Fox (chest) out today

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 47m
2nd offense vs. 2nd defense...Moore still at QB...Darkwa up middle for maybe 4 yds

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 46m
Matt Moore taking snaps w/3rd offense...not sure what that means but might not be good for Devlin, Lobato. Unsure.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 45m
Wallace & Hartline in w/2nd offense...

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 44m
Darkwa right side for TD of maybe 3 yds...nice job by offense on that drill...defense OK, too.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 41m
LBs working on scooping up fumbles and catching INTs...they gotta force more TOs as a unit.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 39m
Forgot to mention LB Chris McCain not working today, Has sleeve on right leg.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 37m
Jordan Tripp with a nice goal line stop. He really read the play well.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 35m
#Dolphins showing nickel right now...Jamar Taylor in slot w/Grimes & Will Davis on boundaries. But Finnegan not here.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 35m
Today is a REALLY physical Dolphins practice. I'm loving it. They've been missing this since the Sparano days.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 34m
The cornerbacks are working on how to handle picks. Safeties on dropping back into zone out of box. Smart practice.
BuwsI08IQAAAF7B-1.jpg:large


Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 33m
I've seen 1,000 practices in my lifetime, maybe more. This is the first time I've really thought Joe Philbin is addressing his team's issues

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 32m
Hartline, Wallace, Gibson at WR in this walkthru drill vs. air. 1st time in while they been together.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 32m
A head coaches job is to be a problem solver. Before today I felt Joe Philbin was mediocre at it. Glad to see he's getting it.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 27s
Brent Grimes with a nice breakup of a pass to Brandon Gibson.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 24m
Time for 5-min cooling break. #Dolphins

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 44m
Hydration break. #Dolphins

RB Knowshon Moreno chillin' on field during cooling break.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 37m
CB Cortland Finnegan on field...not in uniform...being greeted by teammates.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 35m
Cortland Finnegan (wearing long sleeve white shirt) at today's practice after missing Sunday.
BuwyXLDIQAAg9m8-1.jpg:large


Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 30m
OL v. DL...Starks whips Colledge, Satele crushes Johnson, Albert d. Jordan, James d. Fede, Turner d. Smith

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 29m
Arkin d. Smith, Larsen d. Fede, Odrick d. Finkenburg. OL-DL purely anecdotal but matchups fairly even today.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 28m
Shocking that defense had no sacks or QB hurry Friday vs. Atlanta. Pass rush been looking good in camp.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 25m
11-on-11...1s vs. 1s...offense starting around opponent 35-yd line...T'hill overthrows Dion Sims.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 25m
Brent Grimes with a nice breakup of a pass to Brandon Gibson.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 24m
Watched Michael Egnew drop a pass earlier in this 11-on-11 session. His lifeline is nearly empty.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 25m
T'hill overthow Hartline down sideline...jamar Taylor tight coverage...tough pass to complete.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 24m
Defense in nickel and S Michael Thomas playing slot w/Grimes, Taylor at CBs and Wilson & Delmas at safeties.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 23m
1st offense vs. 2nd defense...Damien Williams nice run up middle.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 23m
Reshad Jones is firmly placed as the 2nd team FS and it appears Walt Aikins is being developed as the 2nd team FS now.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 22m
Ryan Tannehill with a nice red zone pass to an elusive Damian Williams.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 21m
Just watched Damien Williams make a nice blitz pickup for Ryan Tannehill. The rookie can play.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 20m
No. 1 secondary w. No. 2 front 7...nickel package and S Michael Thomas still at slot DB.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 19m
No. 2 OL for now -- C Brenner, RG Turner, RT baker, LG Smith, LT Garner. Still looking at many options, as they should.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 20m
Tipped pass by the D-line on a Matt Moore snap. Couldn't tell exactly who it was. But Anthony Johnson was in backfield.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 17m
Special teams segment...Thigpen, Landry, Damian Williams fielding punts.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 12m
OL working on picking up twists & stunts. They seemed to be doing OK at that Friday vs. Atlanta.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 6m
!st team defense in 7-on-7 drill...nickel package...had Taylor at slot DB w/Grimes & Davis on boundary.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 6m
Today's nickel defense looks change tomorrow when, presumably, CB Cortland Finnegan is back in action.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 5m
Still, u get an idea what they're thinking by trying Thomas, Taylor at slot DB.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 2m
Dion Sims just caught a TD pass during the final snap of 11-on-11. He caught it from Tannehill.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 53s
Tannehill threw a nice 38 yard pass to Hartline.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 17s
Knowshon Moreno with a respectable run in a zone read.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 1m
Devlin, Lobato have taken very few snaps w/2nd or 3rd team in 11-on-11 & 7-on-7 today.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 44s
A little in-practice gathering.
Buw6Z2BIIAA1KgV-1.jpg:large


Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 31s
11-on-11...1st offense vs. 3rd defense...T'hill to Hartline for 75-yd TD on slate. Way too easy.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 27s
Offense at oppionent 30...T'hill inc...throw went between Gibson, Hartline...Jalil Brown might have missed INT.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 34s
Lamar Miller run off tackle right maybe 6-8 yds. Nice play.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 9s
2nd defense on field now...nickel...Will Davis, Jalil Brown at CB, Michael Thomas at slot DB

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 11s
Ryan Tannehill with a QB scramble.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 18s
T'hill to Damian Williams...nice throw to 2-yd line...T'hill pretty sharp today.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 29s
T'hill keep on read option...TD from 2 yds...Knowshon Moreno was at RB

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 43s
2nd offense vs. hybrid defense...No. 1 DL, No. 2 LBs, No. 1 secondary...

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 15s
Damien Williams middle...maybe 2 yds...nice job by front four on DL

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 23s
OL (for now)...C Brenner, LG Smith, LT Baker, RG Arkin, RT Garner,

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · now
1st team punt coverage drill...practice almost over...Thomas, Brown, Kovacs, Matthews among those on unit for now.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 13s
1st offense vs. hybrid 2nd defense...S Reshad Jones on field...Steven Clarke at slot DB

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 21s
S Michael Thomas, playing slot DB, nice coverage vs. Hartline. Thomas shows promise.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 36s
Jarvis Landry drop pass on crossing route. Has had good camp. No one mad.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 23s
S Michael Thomas again at slot DB...nice coverage vs. Armon Binns.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 5s
T'hill inc...Kovacs might have had sack...Jones big hit on Dion Sims. Gotta have hat on a swivel.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 3s
Reshad Jones with a nice breakout of Dion Sims pass.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 17s
I blame my poor practice performance today on @davidcanter . And it was the best session of the year.

Chris Perkins @chrisperk · 11s
Danny Hrapmann 55-yd FG attempt, right hash...no good...wide right...good distance...practice over

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 10s
Kevin Coyle has talking points this will be good.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 48s
Kevin Coyle said early in preseason tackling is an issue. "Certainly we have to tackle better...This week is an important fundamental week."

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 11s
"We lose an experienced player. We feel we have capable backups," Kevin Coyle said of Reshad Jones.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 42s
"Jimmy has grown tremendously in the 3 years we've been together. He's one of the best communicators on the team," Coyle said of Wilson.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · now
"We've nicknamed him red zone Jimmy because in his career he makes plays that (impact the game)," Coyle said.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 14s
Kevin Coyle said it is premature to assume the linebacker moves won't work. "I think you'll see marked improvement" as preseason continues.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 5s
Coyle said Terrence Fede is a young developing player "who has a lot of upside." said he played well in first game.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 26s
"He's got good awareness and is an attention to detail guy," Coyle said of Fede.

Omar Kelly @OmarKelly · 41s
Kevin Coyle said he thought Dion Jordan did a solid job, but admits he can "do a better job rushing the passer."

Working out Quinn, Skelton, and Grossman. All sound like super cheap replacements for Moore. Cheaper doesn't mean better but who knows what they are planning.
 
Of course there remain considerably better 3rd options, but 7 years later, but if restricted to those 2, I'd still much prefer to have Ted Ginn over Brady Queen.
 
come on beat writers...lay off the lbs it was only one meaningless preseason game drive...:lol: of course that's all they played...hey ryan if you want to make hay against the 1's in 11 on 11 attack the lbs...

like that jamar taylor is getting inside nickle run with the 1's now...when finnegan comes back i expect he will play the boundary and taylor slide inside...i don't think the michael thomas stuff as an every down nickle with the 1's is a good idea cause his game is facing the play like a safety...

i think it's smart they are only working will davis on the boundary...
 
This would be a kind of poetic justice if Brady Quinn finally comes to Miami, after so many stops along the way. For all the Brady Quinn Notre Dame fans who booed Cam Cameron for selecting Teddy Ginn, your dreams of Brady in a Dolphin jersey may come true. Make it happen, Dennis.
Hey, if we are that desperate for a third string QB as a camp arm to share the workload, is Tebow a consideration (Brady was his backup in Denver)?
 
:sidelol: Just saw something in my news feed that said that the Dolphins were running a 'hybrid' defense that consisted of the #1 DL, #2 LBs, and #1 DBs.

Yup, they know.
 
of the qbs the teams auditioning the only one that would interest me would be skelton...but i don't think he's much of a fit for this offense...the other options are just garbage

i have a feeling i'm gonna be watching damian williams get run at wr in the regular season over guys like landry and mathews...and be underwhelmed

tannehill tearing it up today evidently...nice...
 
we need to sign a short stop if we sign tebow to handle all those 2 hoppers
 
Bring in Tebow it makes since Ross loves Tebow Day.

They're looking for a QB that can at least give the 2nd and 3rd string receivers some work...if they wanted someone completely inaccurate they'd have stayed with Jensen.
