I'm not in the Miami area so I hear nothing that I consider accurate. I assume Miller may get the first game or two while Knowshon recovers but as soon as Knowshon is 100% he takes over.

What is the word in Florida about it?
 
I think it's Miller most snaps and Moreno on 3rd downs and passing plays. Miller is probably more explosive than Moreno at this point. With a new OC we should know weather Miller is out future back.
 
Miller needs to run stronger and stop getting tackled by the first defender all the time. He goes down way to easy. He is now listed as being 224 pounds so he has added some size and needs to show it.
 
Lamar Miller is our starter. Knowshon is behind with injuries. Hard to be the starter for a free agent when your injured most of camp
 
Miller. He can be special if he gets the ball.

I love the fact Miller came to camp in shape with something to prove. He is the starter, bummed about Moreno, coming into camp out of shape and injured. The Daniel Thomas experiment needs to end, and let's see what Gillislee can do. B. Albert is Pro Bowl left tackle which will bring some much needed consistency to the Line. He will be a huge upgrade for the running game which will help Miller, and protect Tannehill in the pocket. Dude has only given up 5 sacks in the last 2 years, that was like one game for Jonathan "Flabby Arms" Martin. I think what will help Miller most of all is Lazor. Moving Wallace around, using Clay better, will open up some run lanes...
 
Miller for sure but am I noticing Gillislee is 216 lbs. Not sure he was that heavy last year....205? Latest article from Sentinel on depth chart says so.
 
My question is how much our offensive line improved? If it is like last year, it really doesn't matter who's running behind it.

Doesn't help that Lamar Miller could get tackled by a butterfly, but you're right. Give him any kind of opening and he's got the speed to get through it. Hoping this year's high-tempo offense will give him the chance to go up against more open fronts.

I think o-line is a huge factor in which RB we have. Knowshon should be a better all around back, if he is the guy they trust in pass protection then the gig is his you would think.
 
Lamar Miller will start. Knowshon Moreno will be backup, If Moreno starts the season injured Thomas will be backup. If Moreno is healthy i think Thomas gets cut and Gillislee gets the 3rd string spot. Thigpen gets cut
