Scouting the dolphins via hard knocks

I've been following this season so I'll give my take on the Dolphins.

David Garrard is out with a knee injury that required surgery. Matt Moore was supposed to start, but the fans are in love with Tannehill, so he'll get the go ahead. He is coming along and looks pretty solid but he lacks the backing of his teammates because he's a rookie and needs to work on planting his feet before he throws (always on the run).

They lack any real offensive weapons and were hoping Chad Johnson would help with the passing game. No receivers have really stepped up. Roberto Wallace is a 3rd year player and has the physical abilities to be their go to, but he hasn't shown much yet. Still struggles to get separation. One guy to watch is WR Rookie Chris Hogan. Reggie Bush nicknamed him 7-11 because he's always open.

Solid OLine led by Jake Long. Speaks for itself.

They could use some work on their secondary. Tyrell Johnson S has looked good in practice and swatted everything thrown to Chad Johnson's way. Corner Vontae Davis lacks the work ethic needed to be success

    • Canales was asked about Freeling at OTAs getting beat by Princely and Scourton.  He basically described the learning curve, and it sounds as if Freeling has a lot to learn before taking the job.  Walker gives us time.  Having said that, Motown talks like he has a few (2-3?) years left---and I would love to see it.   If you look at the contracts, It is a good bet that Hunt and Lewis are extended and given some guaranteed $$$ to lower the cap hit.  Lewis is about 29 and Hunt is 30, I believe.  That gives us about a 3-year window to start grooming their replacements.  Ickey seems to be the person who could be left without furniture in the musical chairs game.  I would move him to guard and use him like a Travelle Wharton--we have a good problem--we could have six or seven starting OL on the roster.  Of course, that won't last long.
    • I see this point and agree--However, someone is going to bite.  In fact, I think there will be some bluffing going on to make the desperate teams raise the stakes.  We shall see.
    • I could see a team like the Jets, Cardinals etc. bid a second round pick, get a year to see where he’s at, and still take a first round QB if he doesn’t show the right stuff. A risk well worth taking. I just wonder how much of a mental toll the last few months have taken on him?
