### Don’t mention to Jordan Cameron the fact that he’s had three concussions in three years.

In an interesting interview with the Finsider’s Greg Likens, the new Dolphins tight end said today: “It’s annoying to hear all this concussion talk. I’m tired of hearing that stuff. I just want to get back to that form of two years ago.”
Cameron said: “I’m trying to get to the Pro Bowl this year. That’s my goal. I wrote it down.”

Cameron, who made the Pro Bowl in 2013 with Cleveland, said his transition to Miami “has been smooth. Learning a lot, jelling with the quarterbacks. I was in a similar system two years ago. It’s something I thrive in. A lot of stuff [where they] throw the ball to the tight end. You’ve got to be able to run and get some separation. That’s what I do best. It tailors to my game.”

### Cameron said offensive coordinator Bill Lazor “demands the most out of us. He humbles you a little bit, which everybody needs. We’re trying to be the best.” Cameron said tight ends coach Dan Campbell “knows the little things. He’s played and that helps.”

He said he has played with 15 quarterbacks in four seasons in Cleveland and is “looking forward” to stability at the position.
He said Ryan Tannehill: is “a guy who’s in here first, putting the time in…. It’s a work in progress as we get to know each other more. Looking forward to the next few weeks as we get our chemistry down…. If the ball is in the air, make the play. That’s my mindset. But it helps to have trust. The main thing we’re working on now is the timing and the trust factor.”

Last word from Cameron, to Likens: “I get the feeling we’re on the brink and we just need something to push us over.”
### Couple more observations from Tuesday’s OTA session, the first of 10 but one of only three open to the media: Yes, it’s awfully early. But Josh Freeman, who bounced a pass to a receiver, showed little to suggest he will give Miami much reason to keep him…Christion Jones, Kenny Stills and Jarvis Landry all got work on returns…

Derrick Shelby dominated backup offensive linemen on passing plays, with Terrence Fede working as the other defensive end on the second team… Caleb Sturgis went 1 for 2 from 41 yards… Tim Semisch, the 6-8 tight end from Northern Illinois, made a nifty diving catch along the sideline.... Good to see former Hurricanes receiver LaRon Byrd make some plays.

Everyone is saying all of the right things. It's usually like this in the off season. Can they put it all together finally?
 
Really hoping for a big (healthy) year from Cameron. The kind of TE we have needed for a while now. Excited to see him out there. Him and Parker can really add a dynamic we haven't had.
 
Good to hear Raw Dog is still developing...we may need more of him on the field to keep Wake fresh.

"Lazor Humbles you a bit...players need that"...this may have been an issue with some of the VET wr on the team last season...
 
Wonder how long the rope is for our kicker...

and still would like Landry off return team.

I think he will be in the end...

You have several other guys who can do it including the Rookie CB McCain.
 
Does anyone know if Kenny Stills has ever done returns in college or with the Saints?

Edit: Never mind...just looked it up...he sucks lol.

1 punt return in 2010 for 16 yards with 3 FC.

8 punt returns in 2011 for 38 yards with a long of 11 and 11 FC.
 
i'd prefer landry off of PR, not because he isn't good at it, not because of the injury concerns...but because it seems he has some confidence issues with handling the ball from a KR perspective....i'd also prefer someone with a little more straight line speed and burst. i thought stills may have been a good fit, but sounds like his experience says otherwise.

i like hearing that from cameron though.
 
"Caleb Sturgis went 1 for 2 from 41 yards"

of course

Something really does need to be done about this, we all would hope to win most game by blowouts, but the reality is most of the games will be won or lost by three points or less, and an inconsistent kicker is very bad to have.

I think no matter how long the rope is, he must already be close to the end of his rope. Philbin must know that his job rides on this season, going into a season with a kicker you can't feel comfortable with is not a good thing.
 
Cameron may be annoyed by it, but it is a legitimate concern.

I'm curious to see how Sims does. As a rookie he had 6 catches for 32 yds. First 5 games last year he had 3 catches for 32. Then in the final 11 games he had 21 catches for 252 yds. Hopefully if Cameron goes down Sims can go off like Clay did after Keller. Has anybody heard anything on Sims lately?
