#Dolphins rookie OL Laremy Tunsil (shoulder) is practicing during media portion for the third day in a row. Good sign.

Albert not practicing, Pouncey not present at practice and Paysinger/Landry in red caution jerseys.
 
Don't aggravate that injury laremy. Would really like to address a position other than the o line in early rounds at some point in the future.

If it was up to me I'd fix the o line entirely in free agency and draft defense in every round.

The only problem with the FA thing is sometimes it gets crazy pricey and we back away, especially with other teams with a lot of cash, I think that happened with the CB and OL the year prior. We do need deferense in the draft.
 
Mando says Dolphins were encouraged by what Tunsil was able to do. He's feels it's like 60-40 % he goes with a shoulder harness. I wonder how serious this injury really is. He says Albert is 40-60 percent he goes. Says they're waiting for the swelling in his left hand to subside before he goes again. Says Albert is dying to return.

He says Howard is making progress but definitely out. Dolphins confident he WILL return this season though. Dolphins not confident on Dion Jordan, we'll see.

Could this be the same injury Jimmy G sustained (sprained AC joint)?

Sounds like good news today. I always doubted B.A. would be back, but the fact that theres a 40% chance he plays this week means he's on track to play next.

Tunsil sounds like he'll go and The News on Xavien is REALLY encouraging.

I'm leaning towards spending the money and fixing the problem once and for all. It's been an issue forever and thill deserves to not get killed back there anymore. I've always felt drafting o line in round 1 is either a luxury or desperation thing, the fins obviously being the latter. CB, LB, or DE is where the smart money is.

Not necessarily a round 1 selection but drafting o-line will be a need . . . yet, again. In FA you tend to receive short term patches like what we currently have in Albert and Bushrod.

Honestly, we're just kind of stuck having to address it again, simply because we don't have any damn guards. Tunsil is moving to LT sooner rather than later, Bushrod is on the brink of retirement, and we have no depth there.
 
sounds like tunsil plays this week, and albert plays next week. who knows about pouncey.

I'm fine with drafting 1 or 2 late ... but an injection of talent on D is critical IMO ... and it just so happens the positions we need look real good at the top.

Round 4 or later would be ideal for doing just that. Give me some blue chips on D, dammit! :lol:
