yeah!! Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 8m Dion Jordan has shaved off his hair. Guess the rookies got spared the embarrassment. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 7m Jamar Taylor is dressed in pads (padded practice today). He's being eased back into working with the team. Jesse Agler @finsjesse 6m Team in full pads today. Wallace and Odrick both in shorts. Hartline in full uniform. Alain Poupart @apoupartFins 5m Odrick and Wallace in shorts at #Dolphins practice. No sign of Randy Starks. Looks like Hartline set to practice. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 4m Linebacker Michael Clay is not practicing.
Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 3m Mike Wallace, Jared Odrick, Charles Clay and Cameron Marshall in shorts today. No Randy Starks sighting yet.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 3m Michael Wallace is not working today. He's in shorts. The Ferrari is in the garage.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m DT Randy Starks (right leg?) not seen at practice so far. Had sleeve on leg yesterday & was limited in practice.
doooooh Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 1m Brandon Fields has a compression sleeve on his LEFT leg. That's his plant foot.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m DT Jared Odrick (right hammy) in shorts. All others full pads. Mike Wallace (groin) in shorts.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 1m I appears Randy Starks and Jared Odrick are not practicing today. They are both nursing injuries. Kheeston Randall gets the call up. want to see what Randall can do.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 2m WR Brian Hartline (calf) in full pads but unclear so far if fully cleared or limited. #Dolphins
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 47s Richard Marshall appears to be stretching out something, and it might be his back. That's something to monitor since he went on IR last yr. uh oh...
Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 42s Dolphins will be in pads today but don't expect much or a physical practice with HOF Game in two days disagree!
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 51s Appears right now CB Will Davis 3rd team. Marshall & Patterson 1st & 2nd team one side, Grimes & Carroll other side. I'm confused too.
I think it's safe to say Wallace won't be playing Sunday. I'd expect him to return to practice next week.
its a groin injury for wallace http://espn.go.com/blog/afceast/post/_/id/61853/dolphins-camp-notes-young-cbs-flash
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 3m Lance Louis appears to be in pads, and continues to working. He might playing Sunday.
Will Davis' reward for getting his hands on the ball 8 times yesterday? Demotion. He's running 3rd string. The 1st string is Grimes and Marshall. The 2nd string is Carroll and Patterson.
The OL shuffle may be coming to a close. Today is the second straight day they're putting Samuda at RG and leaving Incognito and Pouncey in their traditional spots.
Nope. Also Dallas Thomas is working primarily now as the 2nd team left tackle. Which would make sense if you're losing confidence in Jon Martin and foresee the possibility that somewhere down the road you may want to start giving Dallas some 1st string reps to see if he might be any better.
I wouldn't be surprised (or disappointed) if that were our interior o-line going into the season. That would leave Louis, Thomas and maybe Jerry and Garner as back-ups? Other possibilities are Yeatman or Adams. I guess. Garner salary is a bit high, but he can fill anywhere along the line. Jerry is obviously a question mark, but also has experience at T and they seemed to believe he could be a starter at G. I do think Louis is among the top 5 when healthy so I'd be inclined to give him time to get there.
No, I think when you have a 5 week Preseason it affords you luxuries of resting players that have little bumps and brushes..
There playing a real game in two days, I'm sure if anyone is ailing even a little their sittin.its important to get those reps on film Sunday nite so heal 'me up.
Josh Friedman @Friedo790 1m Brian Hartline back practicing after being out since Monday(calf) *whew*
Philbin and Davis seen in the side having a nice convo, something like, now I want you to be humble movin forward, ok?, I don't want to have to pull out some college footage of you playin the run you hear?... Lol
Well they just finished the installation part yesterday and are coming off of what was reportedly the longest practice yet yesterday. I expect it to be raggedy today and Sunday. If I were running things, my focus this next two weeks would be on improving conditioning and on fine tuning my bread and butter plays. I'd want to get as many reps in those plays as possible (some in pads, some in shells).
It's my preference at the moment, depending on who stands out in preseason. Samuda is a guy I've been very high on since they signed him and I looked at as much tape of him as I could. But he was more lackluster in the 2012 preseason than I hoped he would be so I'm not going to assume he goes out this preseason and kills it. By the end of preseason I could feel like Nate Garner or Lance Louis is our best bet.
