Is R Wallace a lock to make it? Which other WRs make the final 1 or 2 spots

from everything I've been reading it's pruitt and wallaces job to lose, both have stood out in camp big time so it would look like this:

Johnson
bess
hartline
Nannee
Wallace
Pruitt
 
With our RBs, and TEs, I think we only keep 5 WR's:

Chad Johnson
Davone Bess
Legedu Naanee
Roberto Wallace
Matthews/Cunningham/Pruitt/Fuller

Peace out Brian Hartline. There's also a good chance we pick someone up after they get cut by another team.
 
I honestly see Hartline getting axed for one of the younger kids...he is not a #2, and yet everyone here loves him and has him locked to make the squad. This injury thing is hurting him big time, and we dont even know if he is a fit for the WCO...Id rather let one of the younger WRs develop opposed to Hartline who is in his 4th year and hasnt improved. He is reliable and consitent but hes nothing more than a solid #4, and on most teams not even that high. We have him up so high but he really has nothing too flashy or great about him, and this is not me bashing because i like him but id rather have Gates or Wallace stick around and let them develop since they have higher ceilings.
 
If we don't sign any of the other names out there (P Buress or M Wallace), I expect our starting 3 to be:

C Johnson - Skill, Quickness and Experience
R Wallace - Size, Strength, Speed
D Bess - Slot specialist extraordinaire

The others all depend on Hartline's injury.

I expect Naanee to start the season, just based on experience. But i can see Wallace starting sometime during the season if he continues to improve.

Hartline is not getting cut. He's better suited for the WCO than Chat Johnson....who is also no better than a # 3 or #4 WR at this point.

Holy crap you are right, I totally forgot about Naanee...
 
I don't understand the NANNEE lovefest at all. He has been less than mediocre, and w/no impact whatsoever, everywhere he has played. If PHILBIN ever kept him here, it'd go a LONG way toward destroying my trust in PHILBIN. As to CUNNINGHAM, MATTHEWS and FULLER, the only one w quickness and a little SPEED is MATTHEWS. He's also the only one who hasn't been dropping passes consistently. Any Rookie WRs who regularly drop passes don't even belong on the P/S. After all, that was a reason why MIAMI sent B MARSHALL to CHICAGO for "peanuts". That has to change, or as far as I'm concerned, it's "bye-bye".

This is it for PRUITT/MOORE/WALLACE. Either they fish this pre-season, or cut bait...ELSEWHERE. GATES gets 1 more year, if he's even healthy.

OCHO's beginning to show what got him benched in N.E.. But you can't fault his motivation, so he stays...FOR NOW. It's his chance to show he's still got something. IF there's just "more of the same", then HE goes, too. Personally, I think that he's gonna make it here: but he better show topshelf, in ALL aspects.

The only WR out there that I think MIAMI should go after is MIKE WALLACE.

As of right now, I see only BESS and OCHO as locks. As to HARTLINE, you can add him to my list, if and only if he's healthy. Beyond that, I want to see M WALLACE acquired, and added to my list, and I'll judge the rest when the competition and hitting is for-real: in games, even preseason games.

And I am sure Philbin will be all broken up to hear about this. :bobdole: I really don't know what you mean by "no impact", but last year Naanee started 10 games (same as Hartline) and finished with 44 catches to Hartlines 35, yet you say Hartline is one of your locks and if Naanee makes the team is shows that Philbin doesn't have your trust??

Naanee has gotten better every year that he has played. LNs biggest problem is that he isn't vocal enough in the huddle. Sometimes a WR needs to be mouthy to get the ball. Naanee has the size, strenght and ability to fight for the ball. He runs much better routes than he did earlier in his career. He has turned into a solid NFL WR IMO. And I will lose all trust in Philbin if he CUTS Naanee.

Poor Philbin, between the two of us he is going to get a migraine trying to worry about which of us to keep happy :lol:
 
I think we will end up trading either moore or Wallace. Both have alot of potential but i think the last wr will be a surprise.
Hogan i think will be a good PS guy same with fuller and cunningham.
Fuller may get grabed if he gets rid of the dropsies.
 
Braylon Edwards is probably fielding offers right now. If you're the Dolphins, are you gonna outbid other teams if the price goes high?

He was signed by the Seahawks 2 days ago so no
