merged: great news from PFW/Carey looking different

Correct me if i am wrong, but didnt Smith do good against Taylor in MC? I mean not that i am downing Carey's talent or anything, i'm just not gonna get excited until i see the samething in TC.
 
I never gave up on Carey. I still see him as a future Probowler, and possibly more. I hope he proves me right!

You're talking about last seasons MC's right? If so then he answer is no...Smith was beaten badly and often by Taylor during pajama camp. The only thing Smith did correctly last offseason was gain some weight...I remember some people being excited about that.

No. I very much so remember reports at this time last year that Smith was getting "manhandled" even in mini-camp.

Words like: "manhandled," "b!tch slapped," "tossed around," etc...were used verbatim to describe how JT handled Wade Smith last year in mini- camp.

I'm with you, these reports mean nothing, but Carey is definitely doing better than what Wade Smith did last year.

Thats funny, i could of swore that i heard that he did good. I guess that i was wrong. Thanks for correcting me on that bro.
 
i have to admit that when i first heard about Carey being moved to LT , i was pessimistic at best and actually was kinda bashing people for even thinking about it, but after all these news , i think its time for me to eat some crow....

Hey, how often does PFT make up good things to say about us? I feel I have to congradulate the New England Patriots on an amazing run, it broke the hearts of plenty of Dolphins fans but now the division is set to be a showdown with no clear frontrunner. Anybody in the divison could win the East now, as long as a few "ifs" turn into "Yes's". They had a great run, they had to know it would not last forever

I dont know if anybody could get much worse then Smith. I am glad that we are experimenting our guys to different roles.

Word from South Florida is that Dolphins 2004 first-round pick Vernon Carey looks like a different player altogether and has the inside track at the OLT spot ahead of Damion McIntosh. Observers say it’s obvious that O-line coach Hudson Houck is pressing the buttons with Carey that Tony Wise didn’t in 2004. We hear Carey is in better shape and more confident and held his own vs. Pro Bowl DE Jason Taylor during spring practice.

This is nice to hear. Damn I hope Carey plays out well and ends up shocking us a bit with is immense talent. Also..................

The Dolphins and new general manager Randy Mueller are very high on Wright, though the call is Nick Saban’s to make. Wright, a 6-4, 300-pounder, would fill a major need up front for Miami.

They also talk about how Patriots safety R. Harrison is miffed about not receiving a pay increase because of his good play. Nice to see the ivory tower of Rome starting to crack. Our opportunities are opening up for the next couple years.

Thats good news even if it is bull anyways I think the ''Ivory Tower'' has been cracking if you have been monitoring the Pats losses.
 
I wonder about Houck's tactics now. If Carey is permorning as reported I bet he won't proclaim his as the starter until well into training camp. It could be a mind game to keep Carey on his toes. That said, it way well just be that Carey is doing well and Houck hasn't made up his mind.

On the mini w/out pads camp performance vs. real camp performance. I think that is Carey can just keep up with Jason's speed w.out pads, that is great, because speed is the key for a right defensive end- the guys Carey will face.

Cool news. Hopefully it is founded in truth.

Maybe we should wait until the Patriots don't win a Super Bowl to start proclaiming their demise.

Awesome, thanks for the info, it's nice to know Carey may not be a bust afterall.
 
good news, and honestly, we don't even need great play out of Carey this year, even above average would help shore up our line to one that can be very productive. Let's hope its true.
 
Well, if he has imporved then great. Personally, I think I would like to see him get the job, be good and then shifted to the RT spot ( where hopefully McDougle held his own and then moves on for more money ) and we draft D'brickshaw for the LT spot next year. I know he would be a rookie but man alive, that guy is a beast and will be an elite LT for years to come. Plus, with Carey on the rightsid,e you have two solid YOUNG tackles for years to come. If Hadnot keeps improving then you have the majority of your line set. However, that is ways off and it is very encouraging to hear our number one pick FINALLY coming along. Makes me like Houck that much more and hate Wise more all at the same time.
