Dolphins to host WR Gerard Sheppard tomorrow

Three other players tried out today.

The Dolphins worked out a pair of wider receivers and a pair of defensive backs on Wednesday, according to a league source.

They were: defensive backs Deji Olatoye and Lowell Rose and wide receivers Gerrard Sheppard and Tony Washington.

Olatoye was signed by the Ravens this past May as an undrafted free agent out of North Carolina A&T, but was recently waived during roster reductions. Rose, an undrafted free agent out of Tulsa, has spent time with the Jets, 49ers and most recently the Chargers.

Sheppard and Washington also entered the league as undrafted free agents. Shepaprd, recently waived by the Packers, was initially signed by the Ravens out of Towson in 2013, while Washington, who played collegiately at Appalachain State, was recently waived by the Colts.

as a starter or major backup but if your 5th or 6th receiver is leslie shepard u are looking pretty good
 
Fwiw I don't think the Dolphins should sign any WR or TE under 6'5"
 
"Excellent size. Good hands. At times will make circus catches. Knows how to position his body and use his size to his liking. Productive Pro Day erased some doubts is he would be able to get separation on the next level by running 4.45 forty. A coach on the field player with solid intangibles. A natural receiver who is big, physical and sure handed. If he can continue his level of play Sheppard is one of the draft's true sleepers."

I love the play at 4:24 when his qb is in trouble. Big Physical receiver and the kid can block and get yeards after the catch. No brainer, bring him in...

Agreed. Leslie Sheppard was alright. Maybe I was being overly critical. I didnt mean to insinuate that he totally sucked.
