The Miami Dolphins today signed defensive tackle Rodrique Wright, the second of their three seventh-round draft choices this year, to a four-year contract. Also on Saturday, the team waived quarterback Justin Holland, who had been signed by the club as an undrafted college free agent out of Colorado State on May 5.[/SIZE]

Wow, I surprised they released Justin. I figured when they singed Rodrique they would just put him on IR, canceling his roster spot. Then i also thought that Justin Holland was going to stay over Brock Berlin also.

 

[Furious Yellow]

Seemed to me they were high on Holland too..

At least as a camp body..

 

[Disgustipate]

I was a little concerned there for a little bit that Wright would pull some sheninigans in terms of asking for higher pay because of his injury limiting his draft spot.

 

[BennyVW]

Thats weird..i thought for sure that Justin showed more promise than brock did...

 

[SageFinMan]

That's pretty sad...Justin didn't even make it to training camp.

 

[PhinBeck]

Yeah that sucks I didnt think Justin would make the team, but thought he could make the practice squad. He may still but seems like not since they didnt take him to camp.

justin was impressive in mini camps.im suprised hes gone.its good to get wright into camp. i want to see what hes made of

 

[aquawave]

Well, they can allways put him in th PS arent they? Or it just dont work like that?

 

[Gardenhead]

Maybe they wanted to do Justin right and let him find a team where he might stick as the 3rd string guy. They cut him early enough for him to get a full training camp with somebody else.

 

[SageFinMan]

I wonder if wright is going to practice at all this training camp. Will they put him on the PUP list with a chance to contribute later on or just put him on IR?

 

[CrunchTime]

I am surprised by both moves.I thought Wright might re-consider entering next years draft and I thought Holland was making an impression.

That means we will probably maintain Brock Berlin on the practice squad again unless they are considering Vick for that spot.

Rodrique is pissed, not ungrateful and stupid. I doubted he was going to re-enter the draft.
