    Dolphins claim WR Anthony Armstrong (WAS) and FS Troy Nolan (HOU)

    Per Ben Volin on Twitter.

    Also, no teams have claimed Packers players, including the Dolphins. Interesting.

    That is truly surprising. Just surprising. Omar said the wrs on the waiver wire were not better than Wallace or Moore. That is the Wallace we cut. Interesting.

    This just blows my mind. The Pack has one of the most talented rosters in the league. They have no claims made on their waived players and we have 3 so far.
    What would any of you have said, if someone told you we'd have more waived WRs get claimed than the Packers would?

    Yup, got Anthony Armstrong too. Hope we don't cut Matthews to sign him. We have to cut at least 3 offensive players though IMO, to make it 26 offense and 24 defense. I can't imagine a larger disparity than that.

    Lets hope Armstrong has a bigger impact his 2nd time around with Miami. No question he has speed and am not sure why his production in 2011 dropped in Washington.

    Nolan had health issues

    Glad we landed AA, but he has a steepish learning curve

    OK, help me out here. We can sign 8 players to the practice squad, correct? Why do I keep hearing that we have to cut somebody every time we sign somebody? Isn't is 53 man roster PLUS 8 on practice squad?

    My cousin loves Nolan, say he comes in as our best safety already. I don't know much about him, but my cousin knows football.

    We will certainly see.

    He's played a lot mainly as a reserve the past two seasons. 2011, PFF rated him the 22nd safety in the league with a +1.3. He allowed 52% of passes into his coverage completed, which is good, and a 70 passer rating which is very good. He played 438 snaps at safety.

    In 2010, his first year, his PFF rating wasn't good. -6.5, but he allowed just 42% of passes completed and a 49 passer rating, on 413 total safety snaps.

    Miami could use a FS that makes plays on the ball. Kind of surprised Miami went for a FS though?

    When we make a waiver claim they go onto our 53 man roster. That's what is happening now.

    We had the roster down to 53 yesterday. Any players claimed on waivers must go on the 53 man roster. Players that make it through waivers unclaimed can then go on the practice squad.

    In week 4 of the 2010 NFL Season, Nolan made his first career appearance in a regular season game against the Oakland Raiders. He had two interceptions, with the second being a game winner. In week 17, Nolan made his third interception of the season and his first sack. Got this from wikipedia. Someone had recently commented he was not a playmaker. When healthy he appears to be.

    Mr Common Sense?

    Completely different terminology and offense, it takes time to learn it.

    Can just run him deep, but that does not mean he is ready to see a lot of snaps.

    We're probably signing guys now, as long as they cleared waivers. It probably won't be announced until later.

    Once we know who all clears waivers, later today.
