This is an interesting subject. OG T. Perry came to the Miami Dolphins last year during the off-season with high hopes. Unfortunately he lost a family member, and it seemed to keep him from staying focused....I can't blame him for that.
This year, he's back at OG with ex- Raven L. Searcy battling him for the starting spot. No easy task. L. Searcy, when healthy, can make this OL a force in the run department at OG.....
T. Perry is hopefully better mentally, almost a year has passed, and his starting job is in jeopardy. He was a very good OG in Chicago before coming to Miami, and I know he's been working hard this off-seaon to improve. We need him, and we need him focused on football. I think he is....and will improve.
I'm more than happy with L. Searcy on the roster, and I wouldn't rule out him taking the starting job from T. Perry. One thing I do know is that his play will force T. Perry to bring out his best efforts once Training Camp gets underway. That's just what he needs too. He had very little competition last off-season, and that will not be the case this year.
I had high expectations of this OL last season until the LT position became an injury plagued nightmare. This season will be another serious test for this group we've got as well. If things don't improve, I think we can expect most of them to be gone next year.....
T. Ruddy/B. Smith/ M. Spriggs/T. Perry/J. Nails/L. Searcy/M. Dixon are all under the microscope. If things don't improve, most, if not all of them should be handed their walking papers.....
It all starts up front. This group either needs to show some toughness, or find another team that's willing to settle for less....
Without solid performances from them this year, R. Williams will struggle at running the ball just like L. Smith did last year. Even so, Ricky should bust the 1,000yrd mark. If L. Smith could rush for over 900yrds behind the line we had last year, Ricky should be able to do much better with the healthy talent we've got.
PHINZ RULE!!!!
