#Dolphins final injury report entering Week 2: Koa Misi & Billy Turner are doubtful. LB Phillip Wheeler joins 8 others listed as probable

Barry Jackson ‏@flasportsbuzz 16s
...Starks, Wallace, Wheeler, Clay, Moreno among many players listed as probable.No questionables...Out: Pouncey, Fede, Tripp.

Omar Kelly ‏@OmarKelly 39s
For Buffalo starting OLBer Keith Rivers (groin) is ruled out, and TE Lee Smith (toe) and safety Jonathan Meeks (neck) are doubtful.

News from #Dolphins injury report is that Wheeler will make his 2014 regular season debut & that McCain & Starks are ready to play
Also, it's somewhat encouraging that Koa Misi is doubtful as opposed to out. Perhaps that means his injury isn't as serious #Dolphins

So the #Dolphins starting LBs vs the #Bills on Sunday should be: Wheeler, Trusnik, & Jenkins. Will be helped by a healthy Starks up front
 
I would like to see Johnson get more reps and give ole man Starks some breathers. Save him, its a long season.

Koa Misi wasn't on crutches, and walked in the locker room fine on the ankle without a cast. So I don't think he'll be sidelined too long.
 
Hs Starks been out due to the lingering effects of, "The incident in Pittsburgh that shall not be talked about?" Haha!
 
Jenkins played really well last week -- better than I've ever seen him play, college or pro -- but it was on the weakside. He's a natural weakside linebacker. It's too bad he won't be able to mature there because that's Wheeler's natural spot. Ideally Chris McCain would be on the strongside.

I know we're all down on Wheeler -- as well we should be -- but there's a silver lining this week. Lost in the talk of the Bills' massive offensive line is that they are very weak at guard. Weaker even that we are. And the weaker of their two weak guards is LG Chris Williams, a high cut former first round LT bust of the Bear. He is... godawful. One of the very best reasons to feel good about this game is the matchup between our DTs and their guards, and this advantage will be further exploited by Coyle with the use of A gap pressure (and the frequent threat of it). Eric Wood is an excellent center but he can only help either the LG or the RG. If he helps the LG, it will give Wake more one on one opportunities against Henderson. If he helps the RG (or blocks the RG's man allowing the RG to help Henderson), it will leave Chris Williams singled up on Starks, Odrick or Mitchell.

Wheeler's best position has been on the strong side, which is why Coyle moved him back there.

I'm more worried about giving up the edge against Jackson and Spiller. Spiller's never been a very good between the tackles running back.

From watching Henderson for 4 years at Miami...he's gonna have issues blocking Wake one-on-one. Lots of issues. They'll have to get a TE over there to help him.

Ya I don't see what Walrus is getting at...he's definitely going to have an opportunity to develop there now that Ellerbe is done for the year (Jenkins), they moved Wheeler to SLB for a reason (we'll see how it works) but we'll have Wheeler (S), Trusnik (M), Jenkins (W) and I think Jenkins is going to see a lot of snaps out there.
