The Miami Dolphins signed undrafted tackle Andrew Hartline to the eight-man practice squad Wednesday.

Hartline will most likely replace tight end Kory Sperry, who was not listed on the Dolphins practice squad on this week's game release.

Perfect. While this lasts, he's a good replacement for the Drew we had and quickly cut. The Fins Noah's Ark dynamic endures!

Noah's Ark Is Alive And Well In Miami
Given The Trifectas strategy of drafting in pairs: RBs, WRs, OGs, DEs, CBs, etc.

....now that we've got 2 "Davone's" (Drew) in addition to 2 "Chads," 2 "Jasons," 2 "Jakes," and 2 "Johns" (am I missing any?), maybe them signing another (recently cut) "Shawn/Sean" Smith isn't all that improbable. (Yes, I'm aware that we've already got 2 "Shawn/Sean's" but lining up 2 Sean Smiths is really like hitting the Daily Double). It would be funny just listening to Griese trying to keep them straight.

Intresting. A 288-pound tackle doesn't fit what Miami typiclly looks for in linemen.

Actually Mark Lewis was the one replaced on the practice squad, if you check the transactions here.

So much for CK's love affair with Mark Lewis..


I told you he was camp fodder.

Hartline played at Central Michigan, not Eastern Michigan as Harvey reported. Sounds like decent developmental project who needs to add size and strength. Pro Footbal Weeklys Scouting report on Hartline:

Solid athlete who is agile enough to mirror his man in pass protection and adjust to cut off the blitz. Generally plays on his feet and gets nice fits on linebackers. Has been a very durable 4 year starter and has not missed any time due to injury. He does have a narrow frame and lacks power and strength at this point. Plays too small in the run game. Struggles with speed and quickness. Is a 24 year old rookie.
