The Phins have been doing their due diligence this year when scouting, they have been following some small school guys pretty hard. They have been looking at guys like Adrian Hamilton hard, and Ryan Davis. Here is a list of guys that I speak too that have all had interviews with their scouts so far. They have been scouting Marquette King, Punter of Fort Valley State who had a few huge punts this year, one for 80 against Bethune Cookman who blasted this punt, it was amazing, didn't not bounce, 80 yard missle in the air. I have had the pleasure to write articles on all the guys that the Jets have been interested in so far from the small schools and thought I would give you guys a chance to read up on some of the guys, here are the articles I have wrote on all of them Marquette King, P, Fort Valley State - 60 punts averaging 43.3 yards and the NCAA record for D-2 with an 80 yard missle http://www.optimumsc...lley-state.html Adrian Hamilton, DE, Prairie View A&M - 20.5 sacks led the SWAC and broke Robert Mathis record, true DE in 4-3 http://www.optimumsc...e-view-aam.html Ryan Davis, DE, Bethune- Cookman - Led the MEAC in sacks and was named HBCU MVP for 2.5 sacks at the HBCU Bowl http://www.optimumsc...ne-cookman.html Other Small school articles Rico Wallace, WR Shenandoah University - 6'3, 210 pound WR who can catch away from his body http://www.optimumscouting.com/scou...-in-the-rough-rico-wallace-wr-shenandoah.html Casey Therriault, QB Jackson State - Big Armed QB, who had to overcome a ton to get to this level. http://www.optimumscouting.com/scou...-rough-casey-therriault-qb-jackson-state.html Thomas Mayo, WR, Cal (PA) - D2 all time leading reciever http://www.optimumscouting.com/draft/articles/diamond-in-the-rough-thomas-mayo-wr-california-pa.html Stanley Porter DE & Charles Deas NT, Shaw University - Both were transfers to Shaw and both took the HBCU by storm this year. http://www.optimumscouting.com/draf...ugh-charles-deas-and-stanley-porter-shaw.html Ryan Steed CB, Furman - known as the second best CB coming out this draft from a small school behind Janoris Jenkins of North Alabama. http://www.optimumscouting.com/draft/articles/diamond-in-the-rough-ryan-steed-cb-furman.html Jared Green, WR, Southern - the son of HOF Darrell Green, this kid is a burner, he ran a 4.3 at the HBCU Bowl, a burner for real http://www.optimumscouting.com/draft/articles/diamond-in-the-rough-jared-green-wr-southern.html Gino Gradkowski, OG, Delaware - Bruce Gradkowski's kid brother, but is not a little man, a very good blue collar blocker.

welcome to the board..I'am a bit confused, you have information as to who our scouts are scouting?? Not sure why were scouting a punter when we have the best in the game.
Does this mean that they weren't doing their due diligence prior to this year. Perhaps that explains the teams 20-28 over the last three years. I am in agreement with djphinfan. Why would the Dolphins be interested in scouting a punter when they already have one of the best punters in the NFL? The Dolphins have many needs on their roster but a punter certainly is not one of those needs.
He's a legit Draft Guy, specializes in small college players like the outstanding Adrian Hamilton who took over for Quinton Spears at Praire View A&M. I enjoy watching some of the guys he listed, going north to the CFL, making an impact in a place they most likely never thought they'd play, then have a shot back in the NFL, guys like Cam Wake, Brandon Browner, and this yr's crop of CFL to NFLers.
I agree. He probably changes the team name in the title and copies and pastes the same post to several team's forums. You may have noticed in one paragraph he forgot to change the team from Jets to Dolphins.
