How are his hands?

 

[Travis34]

I believe Landry hurt his hamstring on the run

Nonetheless, 4.71 is very fast for an OL

Or Jarvis really isn’t that fast by NFL wide receiver standards. I mean we watched him for years and that speed seems about right.

It seems HC McDaniel has "a need for speed" - LOL

He may or may not have been hurt, but even if he was I can't imagine he runs faster than a low to mid 4.6 at his best.

Haha, can't wait to see him and Hunt line up at WR.

 

[ANUFan]

He may or may not have been hurt, but even if he was I can't imagine he runs faster than a low to mid 4.6 at his best.

That's my point. Landary was tough, strong, somewhat shifty, and mostly heart.

Good player..

But he was never, NFL standard "fast" for a reciever w/wo the injury!

That was the main knock on him when he was looking for #1 receiver $.

Right - shifty is a better way to describe him. Definitely not a burner

 

[MARINO1384]

Time for the big bertha package. All olinemen with Wilkins at running back with Hunt and Armstead at tight end. Defenses worst nightmare.

Agreed. Just saying I don't know if he was or wasn't hurt there.

We appear to have what is often called an "embarrassment" of riches, when it comes to high level players, both offensively and defensively. I'm not embarrassed; I think we deserve them.

Our potential for both running and throwing the ball is going to be extraordinary. I feel we are actually "rock solid" at QB, both in capabilities and in depth. I have high expectations for good play calling, based on our HC's past experience in designing plays and working with players who succeeded.

The effectiveness of McDaniel in getting coaches and former players to come here and work with the team is exemplary!

Our training camp seems to be moving forward with both the offense and the defense winning on various plays via some exceptional personnel plays. Will it continue once they start wearing pads? I think so.

I'm "deeply satisfied" that the Dolphins this year did two very good things this preseason.

#1 - They did not try a total rebuild but kept a lot of the newer players who were less than good to somewhat good last year, with an expectation that they are likely to become much better this year. We didn't discard too many good players - we resigned most of them.

#2 - They took full advantage of fee agency; both with high caliber players and some solid, if not spectacular, older vets. I felt they did as good a job as possible with the draft, considering the teams needs and our limited number of draft picks.

It appears we still have some cap left, and once we are down to our playing roster, we may have a bit more. We are already in good shape for next year's draft.

It looks like we will have sold out all our season tickets by the end of next month. This, more than anything else tells me the fans are happy with what they see so far.

This is going to be an exciting year for the Dolphins. I'm really glad I stayed with this team after my favorite, Adam Gase, left. At this point I have no regrets, only hope and expectations, which I fully anticipate will be "asswaged" this season. - LOL.
