About Manny Wright

[THOMAS_54]

If you listen to his ex D line coach he reckons that he would have been a top ten pick next year. So it must be worth a 5th rnd pick this year. This kid is quick out of the blocks.

I still can't believe we got a steal that good.

Right. Vickerson was a 7. Nobody will blink an eye if he's cut, so he'll have to show something serious just to make the team. And he's far less likely than Wright to get grabbed off the PS by somebody.

I think you are reading a little much into. You dont make statements to 7th round rookies prior to training camp.

We need depth a his position subtype. 6'4' 285+ pound guys will be the main horses on the Dolphins D-line. At pretty much any given time you can expect 2 of those type of players on the field. In the 4-3 they will line up at Undertackle and LDE, in the 3-4 they will line up at DE. In nickel and dime packages they can line up in the interior.

Having one backup apiece between the two main starters is just good sense. Two young developmental picks behind our two 29-31 year old starters.

oh we gave up on vickerson already. Haha. Come on does anyone really believe he'll make the team? hes already worn out his welcome. and 7th round picks don't even get 'welcomes'

at worst he is on the practice squad this year.

He won't be put on the Practice Squad. If we put him on there we will run the risk that someone else will snatch him up. He will make the 53 man roster this year as a backup.

Always amazes me to see peep's talking about probowl for a player that havent Made the team or even taken an NFL snap

why does it amaze you?

his old Dline coach said himself that he could be All-Pro or he could not make it at all.

The guy has pro bowl potential with his size and coaching potential of the dolphins, i honestly think that few guys would disagree with me.
