Few college football players have suffered an injury as devastating to their NFL prospects as former Oregon cornerback Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, who was viewed as a first-round prospect before blowing out his knee in December of 2014 and ultimately fell all the way to the seventh round. Ekpre-Olomu hasn’t played in an NFL game yet, but he says he’s now been given a clean bill of health. Ekpre-Olomu told the Miami Herald that his doctor “said I’m perfectly fine.” The Browns waived Ekpre-Olomu this offseason, suggesting that the new regime in Cleveland doesn’t believe his knee is ever going to be perfectly fine. But he was claimed by the Dolphins on waivers and says he’s happy where he is. “It was something with new management; they wanted to go in a different direction,” Ekpre-Olomu said of the Browns. “And I guess I wasn’t in that direction. I’m happy I’m here.” If Ekpre-Olomu ever returns to the form that he showed at Oregon, the Dolphins will be happy to have him in Miami, too.
With this year we may have had one of the best offseasons ever if everything works out (LOL). Tunstill falls. Ekpre could be a 1st round type back. Wake looks like his old self. Kiko returns to form. Maxwell returns to form Dion gets reinstated and shows what I was hoping he would be. Mario Williams returns to form. CJ Anderson returns to form. Daniel Thomas returns to form. It's a lot of hope and returning to form. But the offseason is the time for hoping.
LOL I was like WHAT!! Holy **** that would have been a great surprise! Also I have a feeling Drake and Ajayi will be a nice combo for this offense! Drake is a seem splitter and Ajayi is a power back who will wear you down!
Daniel Thomas returning to what form? It would be a good off season for sure, especially if the young players work out. If the older player moves work out then the Dolphins need to use that time to bridge over to younger talent throughout the defense.
Unless this dude is Adrian Peterson, you're probably not getting him at his full potential. 80% of his potential is probably better than Will Davis/Jamar Taylor though.
