3. WR Brandon London looks determined to stick around.
London could be the odd man at wide receiver, especially with the solid play of rookie Patrick Turner, who at 6-foot-5, 220 pounds, gives the team the big WR London (6-4, 215) had hoped to be.
London is playing with a sense of urgency.
He showed frustration following a dropped a pass during Monday morning’s practice. But instead of letting it snowball, London bounced back in the evening session.
London played fast and aggressively to make several plays.
The first two days of training camp, he’s outplayed Anthony Armstrong, who made as many big plays as anyone in training camp … and many more than London.
Tony Sparano likes to the idea of having big WRs to help improve the team’s red-zone offense and third-down conversion rate. But he said how many WRs the Dolphins keep will depend on overall make-up of the roster.
Ted Ginn Jr. Greg Camarillo, Davone Bess and Patrick Turner are locks, while London, Armstrong and rookie Brian Hartline are fighting for spots.
“Are we keeping four, five, six of these guys? I don’t know that,” Sparano said.
