Ok no more soccer posts, no more arguing over copy and pasting tweets and copy and pasting the same tweets from one forum to another. It's time for a clean slate. Day 2 of mini camp is starting soon. I will try to post relevant tweets throughout. If anyone else wants to help, feel free. I am running a training session at 10:15....so if someone wants to take over, feel free. 81 days till Game 1 !!!

Chris Perkins @chrisperk 3m RB Mike Gillislee getting look on punt coverage unit. Special teams will be key for the ex-Gator. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 5m Pat Devlin just competed his red zone series during 11-on-11 with a touchdown pass to Daniel Thomas,who was wide open in the flat. Walked in Chris Perkins @chrisperk 5m Tannehill said offense would improve from yesterday sloppiness & so far he's right. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 6m Watching Will Davis work with the starting defense some today. James Walker @JamesWalkerNFL 6m CB Will Davis now getting first-team reps. It appears the #Dolphins are rotations him with Jamar Taylor. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 8m Nice pass from Pat Devlin to Matt Hazel. Hazel might have been on his third read. He's reading the field better these days. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 9m Devlin to WR Matt Hazel. That kid often finds a way to get open. James Walker @JamesWalkerNFL 11m #Dolphins rookie TE Arthur Lynch with a nice TD catch from QB Matt Moore. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 11m Matt Moore just threw a 25-yard touchdown pass to Arthur Lynch for the day's first score. Tight end was wide open. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 11m Before the Arthur Lynch touchdown Mike Gillislee had a nice run behind the left side of the offensive line.
Just a reminder, if you would like to partake in the World Cup discussion thread it's here: http://www.thephins.com/forums/showthread.php?81727-*The-World-Cup-Thread* Although yesterday was fun while it lasted... one time deal
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 14m LB Jordan Tripp getting look w/2nd team at WLB. Freeny at SLB w/Trusnik in middle. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 14m Brandon Gibson, who began practicing with the team yesterday, continues to work. great news Chris Perkins @chrisperk 16m Dion Jordan drops back in zone blitz. Lots of speed package looks w/DL of Wake, Shelby, Jordan & Vernon. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 16m Watching Dannell Ellerbe and Philip Wheeler working as the linebackers in the nickel package right now. They are rotating guys. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 16m Brandon Gibson continues to go full team practice. Playing in the slot with Hartline and Wallace outside. Familiar lineup. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 18m Michael Egnew and Daniel Thomas in with the first team. Don't count those guys out. #Dolphins Chris Perkins @chrisperk 18m DE Anthony Johnson & LB Jelani Jenkins getting look w/1st team. Misi on sideline. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 23m Moreno is in fact on the Dolphins. Getting looks with first team today.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 4m Watching Ryan Tannehill work on his touch passes. He'd benefit from some one-on-one drills with the WRs. They don't do any since we're here. huh? Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Odrick & Earl Mitchell at 1st team DT right now...#Dolphins have options when u throw Randy Starks into mix. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 1m Wallace in the slot on this drill with Gibson and Hartline outside. #Dolphins Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 1m Watching Dannell Ellerbe work with Jelani Jenkins in the nickel now. This appears to be a true audition. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Interesting that today's LB trio seems to be MLB Ellerbe, SLB Jelani Jenkins & WLB Philip Wheeler. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 36s Not sure if LB Jelani Jenkins on serious push 2 start or if #Dolphins just looking at specific package.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 2m 2nd team OL: C Sam Brenner, LG Billy Tuner, LT Nate Garner, RG David Arkin, RT Jason Fox. #Dolphins Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 1m Nate Garner is working as the 2nd team left tackle, and Jason Fox is apparently getting reps at RT. He was 2nd team LT yesterday. so first team is: Albert, ?, Pouncey, Smith, James... ?=Thomas??
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 2m 1st team defense on field: LB trio is MLB Ellerbe, SLB Jenkins, WLB Wheeler. Not sure what's up w/Misi. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 2m Cortland Finnegan is not participating today. And neither is Koa Misi. Dannell Ellerbe goes inside with starters. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 2m Moreno is sprinting on the sidelines. Trying to get in shape? Chris Perkins @chrisperk 2m Tannehll to Mike Wallace on short pass to left. Still haven't connected deep. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 2m Pat Devlin just threw a nice swing pass to Marcus Thigpen, who quickly got up field for YAC. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Tannehill to Rantavious Wooten. Kid doing OK. James Walker @JamesWalkerNFL 2m Not to bash Mike Sherman, but the way new #Dolphins OC Bill Lazor is using Mike Wallace is MUCH improved. But it's only June. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 1m Pat Devlin just read a safety blitz and threw another completion to Marcus Thigpen during 11-on-11. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 1m 11-on-11 resumes: Wallace and Stephen Williams outside w/first team, Egnew at TE Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m S Jimmy Wilson bats down a Tannehill pass in backfield. Wilson becoming playmaker. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 1m Moreno being timed on his sprints while the first teamers do 11-on-11s Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 47s Mike Wallace with a nice catch on Will Davis. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 22s LT Jason Fox gets look with 1st team. Fox hasn't stood out so far. Also hasn't had many 1st team reps so hard to gauge OL and DL guys without pads.
Jason Fox started off OTAs as the 2nd team right tackle. Nate Garner was the 2nd team left tackle. Then they switched to Jason Fox working at left tackle and Nate Garner working at right tackle and some other positions. It appears they've switched back. Whether it's because of something they saw or because they're just rotating them, hard to say.
Yep. Training Camp is the only thing unsigned picks aren't able to participate in. I do believe that all the picks operate under injury waivers until they are signed; just not sure what terms of those are.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 9m Brock Jensen with a nice swing pass to Rantavious Wooten. Good for about a 30-yard gain. Wide open! Defensive breakdown. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 8m Taylor breaks up a Tannehill pass to Stephen Williams. Jamar continues to be active today. Adam Beasley @AdamHBeasley 8m Jamar Taylor continues to show up. Breaks up deep pass to Stephen Williams down the left sideline. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 8m Stephen Williams can't bring down a deep pass from Ryan Tannehill. Flag on the play at the line of scrimmage. Jamar Taylor on breakup. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 8m Matt More inc deep to WR Stephen Williams. Flag thrown on CB jamar taylor & S jimmy Wilson coverage. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 6m Arthur Lynch is making his presence felt more today. Solid grab from Pat Devlin during 3rd team work of 11-on-11s. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 5m Nice job going to one knee for catch by WR Jarvis Landry. Kid looks good. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 4m Still don't think QB Brock Jensen will provide much of threat to QB Pat Devlin, who seems to be having good camp. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 4m Skies getting a little dark over practice facility. Could be going inside soon. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 2m Watching the receivers and quarterbacks so a rapid fire throwing drill on 15-yard outs. 2 QBs at a time, rapid fire. Bang bang stuff.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 1m Marcus Thigpen, Damian Williams and Rantavious Wooten are the only Dolphins catching punts today. No Jarvis Landry. He's working as a gunner James Walker @JamesWalkerNFL 57s Today punt-return candidates are...Marcus Thigpen, Matt Hazel, Damian Williams and Rantavious Wooten. #DolphinsMinicamp Chris Perkins @chrisperk 43s Among those on 1st team punt coverage -- Michael Thomas, Kovacs, Gillislee, Jenkins, Freeny, Demetrious Wright, Tripp.
"I'm seeing some good and some bad from rookie WR Jarvis Landry. Good routes and strong hands. But he's not overly athletic." Source James Walker. This is the concern some of us have and why there is some skepticism relative to some of the projections that are happening with this player.. I just hope good hands, toughness and craftiness go a long way.
I can remember our late 80s early 90s guys not signed unable to participate. Or perhaps they chose not to.
