Chris Perkins @chrisperk 46s Jordan v Martin. Jordan pushes Martin into T'hill on inc pass. Still not ire if Jordan damn good or Martin struggling. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 22s Appears CB Dimitri Patterson not working today. Will take closer look. Haven't seen him 1st or 2nd team. Yet.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 24s Sturgis. 47 yds. Right hash. Good. Coulda moved him back 5 yds. Length strength is back.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 5m Jonas Gray just caught a pass for a 1st down. He's looking good today. Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 9m Dion Jordan's first snap of 11-on-11 and he pushes Jonathan Martin into the QB with power. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Wow. Screen pass to Lamar Miller. OL on the run again. (I know...they gotta run. It's a screen. Still...) Josh Friedman @Friedo790 37s Hartline(left calf) now working with a trainer on the side.
My hope is that Louis recovers enough and soon enough to be one of our top 5. I think I'd like Samuda and Thomas (assuming Thomas gets some T reps and shows enough) as the other two active linemen on game days. That would give us a guy that could fill in at G or C in Samuda and a guy that could fill in at G or T in Thomas. Of course, Jerry or Garner could also be that G/T fill-in.
I might be wrong but I think they usually have 3 backup OLs active on game day. Wouldn't it be risky to have only 2 available?
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 4m Matt Moore having ruff day. Threw ill-advised into double coverage, then misfired badly. He's had good camp tho. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 2m Devlin fimbles snap in face of blitzing Koa Misi. Not good day 4 anybody so far. Btw Jamar Taylor dropped INT earlier. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 2m Sturgis good from 52 yds. Right hash. Correction on last tweet. Sturgis having good day
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Devlin throws way behind Gibson, who was open on crossing pattern. Yikes Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Passing segment over. Thank goodness. Josh Friedman @Friedo790 39s Very sloppy #Dolphins practice today. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 30s T'hill to Sims. Inc. rookie wasn't turned around. Ball bounces off shoulder pad. They sound terrible today, hope they get a tongue lashing from Philbin.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Kenny Stafford drop. This is past ridiculous. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 31s Presley drops potential INT. u can't make this stuff up.
Just started posting here...paul and ronnie much respect!!! This is awesome to have all the twitter feeds and news in one place. Appreciate it!
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 25s T'hill misfires dump off pass to Miller. High & behind him Chris Perkins @chrisperk 19s This has been worse practice of camp for passing game. By far. And these r short & intermediate routes. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 5s 7-on-7 passing segment comes to merciful end. What a practice. Wow. Josh Friedman @Friedo790 18s A mistake filled practice here at #Dolphins training camp. The team is having a bad day at the office.
That was my recollection as well, but in an interview earlier Turner mentioned having 2 reserves so that seemed like it's the plan going forward.
Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 2m Kyle Miller's been active today with a couple of catches. If Dolphins keep four tight ends he has a shot #finsbubblewatch Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 1m Julian Posey with a nice pass break up, denies Tyms in the endzone Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Deep ball. Devlin to Posey. Broken up by Posey in end zone. Intended for Tyms. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 40s Judging by number of snaps given to Devlin today (and Moore) guessing they're game-planning. Starters resting mostly. Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 29s Keenan Davis sighting, leaped up and brought it down off a Devlin pass
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 35s Smallish crowd today. Maybe 600 or so. Normal South Florida heat & humidity for August. In other words its miserable.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 48s Special teams segment over. 1s v 1s. Now 3rd & 1 at 39. T'hill to Egnew. 1st down. 10 yd gain Chris Perkins @chrisperk 3s T'hill to Sims. Middle. Samuda keeping job at RG. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 13s T'hill to Daniel Thomas. Whole lotta short passes in this camp. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 38s Jordan v. Martin. Lamar miller chips. There's holding call & might have been Martin. Like hearing that about Samuda
To be fair the other writers have made note on how terrible of a practice this has been, the dude seems alright.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m TD!! Devlin to Sims from 4 yds. Good throw, good catch. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 48s Gillislee 1 yd TD run right. Nice job slicing in. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 1m Dion Jordan getting look with 1s right now. Chris Perkins @chrisperk 53s Offense showing diversity. Now if they could just add a pass longer than 12 yds... Chris Perkins @chrisperk 55s Another short pass. T'hill to Gillislee. Goes right thru his hands Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 46s Bad snap, Tannehill manages to recover, hands off to Jonas Gray Chris Perkins @chrisperk 24s Jordan now w/2nd team. Good battle v Kyle miller. The TE holds him off.
Yea, not that other practices have been great, but this seems to be the one that you'd wish you missed if you only got to attend one so far.
Chris Perkins @chrisperk 43s Jordan drives Yearman almost into Devlin. Becoming trend w/kid, driving LT to QB Chris Perkins @chrisperk 22s Gillislee fumbles pitch on 4 yd line. Jumps on it around the 6.
Tht speed to power move is very effective, as tackles are off balance trying to keep up with his speed.
What's weird about that tweet is Omar turns around at the same time and says that he's watching Will Yeatman stand Dion Jordan up and it's changing his mind about both players. But Chris Perkins says that Jordan essentially drove Yeatman right into the QB. Also Omar says that Michael Egnew (yes, Michael Egnew) just threw down a really nice block that helped spring Jonas Gray into the end zone.
this is good news Armando Salguero @ArmandoSalguero 2min LT Jonathan Martin did not give up a sack today!
Andrew Abramson @AbramsonPBP 2m Dion Jordan on going up against Jonathan Martin regularly in college: We won most of them
Don't believe Martin gave up a sack today, maybe some pressure, and diruptions of timing, but no sacks.
Nope. It is 7 total OL dressed on game days usually. Even Jim Turner says it in that recent video interview on the team web site.
Not just going forward. It has been that way in the past too. Just go back and look at the Game Logs on nfl.com and the lists of active and inactive players and usually you will see 2 backup OL.
Omar Kelly @OmarKelly 16s Joe Philbin hinted that Jonathan Martin is doing well in run, but needs to work on his punches during pass pro.
