Brian Hartline on track to be ready for 2014 season

My beef with Hartline is he never breaks any tackles. He catches it and sit down. He's good and has been consistent but what if we had Evans, Wallace and Gibson? Evans can plow through people, Wallace is Speed(PR&KR?) and Gibson has good hands and a great Route runner.. We can improve but I hope Hartline get another 1000.. I'll be surprised...

I like Hartline and we are lucky to have him. With that being said noone on the face of the earth can dispute this. He needs to do heavier squats.

Can I just tell you how excited I am to have two WR's recovering from major knee surgery? I hope we go another draft without addressing the position. Maybe draft another non-contributing DB.

Hartline's injury was not a major knee injury and it did not require surgery.
 
Hes not perfect by any stretch....but the dude is a magician at working the sidelines. Hell you know DBs watch film...they KNOW hes going to run comebacks all damn day and his route running is so good that he still gets them to open up their hips...along with great timing and chemistry with the QB. That and he makes the tough catches over there....huge asset to this team.

Id be looking to draft a WR but that has more to do with adding more weapons not replacing a guy like Brian Hartline.

Joe Philbin said the team hasn't had their hands on Brandon Gibson and Brian Hartline. The hope is they'll be healthy by season opener.

Wait, what? WTF did Hartline do in pre-NFL to earn a "gangster", "thug" label?

At least one "guru" ripped him as gangster thug from his Ohio State days. His/her opinion was based on "anonymous" things they were "told", but more specifically they based their opinion off this image from Google:

As it turns out that "gangster thug" label was just an attention grabbing headline, unless Brian has done a great job fooling us the last 5+ years.

Except he's only been successful with one HC, OC, or QB.

Not in my eyes. As a rokie, 31 catches for a 16.3 avg. 2nd year, 43 catches for a 14.3 avg (missed 4 games). 3rd year, 35 catches for a 15.7 avg. 4th year, 74 catches for a 14.6 avg. Last year, 76 catches for a 13.4 avg.

That's about as consistent as you can get, with the difference being how many times he was thrown to, and this was as a #1 WR, a #2 WR, and I think as a rookie a #3 WR. It was the same with and without Marshall, with and without Wallace, and with different QB's and coaches. JMO

He looks about as white-bread and non-gangster as I do. These media idiots will say anything just to have something to say.

He was a starter his second and third years and was a non-factor who had amongst the lowest actual production bundled with the highest drop rate of starting receivers in the league (there are stats that show this, but I am not looking them up with a broken right wrist - I have done so before). Yes, he has been fantastic the last two years, and for his blue collar production he's become one of my favorite Dolphins. But it's a joke for a guy who averaged barely over 3 catches a game as a starter with anyone but Philbin/THill/Sherman to be called consistent regardless of coach, QB, or OC. I think as the player he's become, he certainly would be, but he wasn't before Tannehill turned a guy who dropped at a higher rate than any other starting receiver into a consistent target.
