- Start date
Nice, this backs up Clayton's report. I figured it was definitely going to happen, but Clayton hasn't been very reliable this offseason. Cooper is a Dolphin, done deal. :up:

Nice pickup if you ask me. Another solid tackler and possible starter in the secondary

Some Jaguar fans perspective on Cooper...http://www.jaguars.com/mb/default.aspx?f=6&m=793907
"Cooper is a fine pickup in a backup role, but last year he was seriously exposed as a starter. For the Dolphins he may be a good get since he's already used to the Florida humidity and all, but that depends on how they intend to use him. Cooper is fast, covers well, and knows how to flow to the ball, but he gets outmuscled too easily from a physical standpoint and not even Del Rio could prevent him making stupid penalties. Also, Dolphins fans may want to consider that he's a pretty good gunner on the punt team."

Deke Cooper, Jags. (age 28, 6'2", 210lbs) ..from Scouts Inc.
"Has very good size and good upper-body strength. He uses his hands well in block protection and shows he has decent foot quickness. He is very smooth in his backpedal and has very little wasted motion in his transition. He has a good plant and drive out of his pedal and goes aggressively to the ball. He is comfortable coming into the box in run support and shows he has good play recognition. He plays with good overall instincts. He is not a bone-crushing tackler but is a good strong tackler who wraps up with his arms. He has the speed to match up with tight ends and some backs, but would be overmatched versus most slot receivers. His speed is adequate but not great. He does not show the ability to go to a second gear, although he has the range to play over the top in a Cover 2 scheme. He has good anticipation and plays within his capabilities. He takes good angles to the ball in pursuit and plays with good intensity. He has very good hands and has good ball skills. He is a very productive player on special teams and his biggest deficiency would be his inability to match up one-on-one with skilled receivers all over the field."

Decent aquisition.. He's ok.. I don't see him overtaking yeremiah for the starting gig though.. He'll make for a damn good special teams player though...
