Jarvis Landry was the star of training camp Saturday. He turned bubble screens into big gains. He took a reverse and hurdled upfield. And he badly fooled slot corner Brice McCain to get open for a chains-moving completion.

Landry is the early favorite to be the Dolphins’ No. 1 option this year — only Mike Wallace was targeted more in 2014 — and here’s the biggest reason why: Even after shredding the defense Saturday he spent an additional 10 minutes running post routes for Tannehill following practice.

Added new teammate Greg Jennings: “He made the statement that, ‘I may not be the fastest,’ or something like that. But he said, ‘I’m catching everything that comes in my direction.’ Just that mind-set alone will allow for him to be great, because being around him, his football IQ for a guy who’s in his second year, hasn’t even started his second-year season, is unbelievable.”

That’s not to say Landry is slow. He spent the offseason with Pete Bommarito, a local trainer who works with pro athletes on speed, strength and skill development.

Landry flourished as the Dolphins’ slot receiver as a rookie but doesn’t want to be pigeonholed. Already this camp he has worked out of all three receiving positions, and coach Joe Philbin praised his football acumen.

“I think his expectations are even higher, which I think is a great thing,” Philbin said. “You want to coach players that want to contribute, want to make a difference, want to make an impact, and he’s certainly one of those guys. He loves coming out here. He wants to be involved and he wants to make a difference. Yeah, I’m excited about what he can do for us.”

Its been awhile since we drafted a player like this.. Simply infectious
 
Jarvis Landry's slow 40 time at the Combine was Miami Dolphins lucky day. We should be thankful that Dennis Hickey saw enough in Jarvis to recognize great value when it was staring him in the face.
 
This guy's is becoming one of my favorite player very fast....
 
Hard not to like Landry. Just a solid football player with a great personality.
 
Man, just imagine the possibilities with this O for the next 7-10 seasons if Tannehil (27), Miller (24), and WRs Landry, Parker, and Stills (all 23 or under) all live up to their potential & stay healthy. These guys aren't even at their peaks yet!
 
He was my favorite player for my Tigers and now he's my favorite for my pro team. It's still an absolute dream we drafted him.
 
I absolutely love Landry. I know that his former teammate at LSU, Odell Beckham, is getting a lot more attention than Landry, probably because he plays in NYC, but I think Landry is just as good. He are some highlights:

We nailed it with this pick. We needed a player like this badly!

That made me dizzy! But he is fun to watch. It's great to hear he and Tanny are putting in extra time together. Marvin Harrison esque?!
