Dolphins Final Cuts

[Unchained 07]

I guess they figure Garner can fill a lot of holes and releasing Brenner opens a roster spot for another skill position?

Everyone is complaining about Labato. He is a practice squad qb!! Do you really think he is going to make or break our season? Give it a rest.

Personally, I would be surprised if performances in the fourth preseason game makes a lick of difference to a players value in the vast majority of cases. I think you can hurt your chances, which is what might have happened with Thigpen, but you can't do much to help them at that point.

He is going on the PS for sure. I think hoops had a really good take on the situation -- even if you like the guy, he's not one of the best 5 WR and he doesn't help you right now. You put him on the PS, and if someone else picks him up, well, good for Hazel, but you need guys who can help you win right now.

I hear you guys and you're probably right.. at least I hope so. My point is that they didn't need a meaningless 4th game to know what they had.. and could have as easily inserted Hazel for a few token plays and kept him more or less anonymous if the PS was their intent all along. They certainly didn't need to run the risk of showcasing one of our draft picks for other teams, maybe even within the division. I learned in my sales oriented old business many years ago, that it's prudent to only continue to sell if you can help a sale along.. not if it's in the bag and potentially screw it up.

I would LOVE to know what the fascination is with Seth Labato. He is SOOO BAD, why would we put him on the PS

He has a good arm. Maybe they think he can develop in the future. It's practice squad so who cares?

Having him helps us prepare better for the Jets QB's:lol2:

With Sturgis healthy, Dolphins have told kicker Jake Rogers that he is being released. That's 15 confirmed cuts and 1 confirmed IR.

Last I heard, Pouncey probably won't go on PUP because he doesn't need the six games to get healthy. Many expect him back for the 5th game.

If kept on PUP, it would take longer for him to be back playing, as he cannot practice until after week #6, and would take a few weeks to get in game shape.

 

[hoops]

Just my read on things but I think you guys tend to get too high on what you see in a 4th preseason game setting...productive play against 3s isn't really productive play if it never shows against anything else...

Hazel needs a lot of development...be it route running be it awareness be coverage and db leverage etc...

Central Arkansas tight end Chase Dixon, cut recently by the Seattle Seahawks, is scheduled to come to South Florida for a workout. He tweeted about the trip. Dix is 6-5 and 242 pounds and caught four TD passes despite playing in run-heavy offense last year.

This is due diligence. I think this guy was cut from the Seahawks on July 24th. He has visited with other teams.

Yeah I don't think it's the preferred route...but it does tell you they are looking and I like hearing that...

We do need another TE who can block so they will probably bring in several for a look.

Now there are Clay , Sims and gator but Clay and gator are more H backs to me.

The Dolphins are bringing in a TE recently cut by Seahawks for a workout:


You can confirm this by his twitter account:

Chase @C_Dixon89

Getting ready to head to Miami for my workout with the #Dolphins. I pray everything goes well...

The Dolphins have informed undrafted rookie TE Harold Hoskins that he has made the 53-man roster,agent Jarian Lyons tells me.

 

[gregorygrant83]

I don't really care if Laboto is on Miami's practice squad, but if the time comes that the Dolphins need a third qb during the season i'm looking at other team's practice squads and maybe even call Quinn first.

The Dolphins have told DT Isaako Aaitui that he has been cut. That's 16 players released, 1 on IR. Team will announce all at once later.
