we didn't get a big back, but atleast we picked up a back in udfa they has some playmaking ability. [video=youtube;yaV7XsqXHbs]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yaV7XsqXHbs[/video]
 
looks like the sooners offensive line was opening up some holes
 
He looks good. He was kicked out of Oklahoma so there was probably a behavior issue, but he looks good on the field. Also at 222 lbs he's a bit of a load to bring down. Good pick up.
 
Ehh... Wouldn't get too excited about the kid.


Anthony Johnson was the udfa sign that i'm excited about. Let him sit and learn aka something the dolphins organization know little about; developing players...... and you may have a beast in the near future.
 
If we can make those same holes this guy is going to be a beast. Actually if we can make those holes Miller will lead the league in rushing.

What a ridiculous statement. All you hear on this site is how the Dolphins draft last year was a bust because they didn't get much playing time last season. People were declaring Olivier Vernon a bust after his first season but he developed nicely in season two. Too many people are impatient with letting these players develop. How many times do you hear on here that Tannehill is a bust and the Dolphins should find a QB? Or Dion Jordan is a bust and that they should trade him? I think this coaching staff is good at bringing their players along slowly so they can develop and get stronger.
 
I also am not that excited. Nothing to do with production, but with what i was able to see from his highlights. He doesnt have any special qualities that I could observe and definitely doesnt look like he is any better that what we have. I do agree that he needs a chance like everyone else but I think we can all have an opinion on what we were able to see.

What part of "sit and learn" didn't you understand? I'm all for developing players... Something the dolphins hardly ever do. After 1 or 2 years they let their young guys go if they don't become stars...

Randall, Kearse, Evans, 7/11, Aaitui, Root, Walden, Donald Thomas, Samuda etc etc Let guys go before we even let them develop....

You're arguing the same point.

Every team lets guys go from the bottom of their roster when they bring in players that upgrade the talent at their position. The players that you need to be patient with are the guys at the top of your roster. Players that have obvious talent and can make you a great team. Players like Tannehill and Jordan, who many on here want to run out of town on a rail.

Wow....



The HOF looks with envy at that list of talent.

If we had just held onto Samuda, who knows.... Super Bowl... Here we come!

How would you know if you never give the guy more than a year to develop? :lol: Be real here

More than half of those guys started for other teams and contributed...
 
Good pick up. I was hoping we would draft him with our 7th round pick. But udfa is even better
