7/26 - Day 5 Camp Notes

Andrew Abramson ‏@AbramsonPBP 1m
Dallas Thomas working at left guard, Richie Incognito at right with John Jerry absent #dolphins

Odd that Richie switches sides on 1st team OL. Must be because most of Thomas' experience is on left side.

I wonder where Jerry is?

Maybe Jerry is still in an ice cream induced coma

No pads today. Some of the #dolphins on practice field already but Philbin watching o-line in the bubble

Rookie CB Jamar Taylor not practicing again #dolphins

James Walker also doing Camp today - similar notes to Abramson - but interesting. Wonder what is up with John Jerry (apparently no sighting?)

#Dolphins HC Joe Philbin is watching the o-line closely in drills this morning. Looks like the group's play so far has caught his attention.

James Walker ‏@JamesWalkerESPN 26m
It's a good day to experiment on the o-line. The #Dolphins aren't in full pads so contact/physicality will be limited.

Two changes already on #Dolphins o-line in Day 5 of camp. Coaches probably looked at tape Thursday and didn't like some things.

That's a huge development at guard..major shake up..lets see how much Dallas can handle..

Not sure if it's a huge development yet if it's happening only because John Jerry is hurt and not practicing. Plus they're in shells and shorts today.

If Sturgis is battling a groin injury could explain his minor struggles. Would still be a stunner if he doesn't win kicking job #dolphins

Aaron Corp struggling in drills. I don't think he'll win the starting quarterback job #dolphins

Richie's a savvy vet and played RG in St. Louis and Buffalo. I think you're right on about Thomas' experience on the left side. I think at the end of the day, if you're putting your best 5 OL out there, I feel like Thomas is going to be in that group. Somewhere.

True, I just saw absent from camp.

I think I like Tomas's game as much as anyone, but having a rook and Jon Martin makes me queasy.

#Dolphins WR Mike Wallace just blew by CB Julian Posey for a deep reception in 1-on-1 drills. Posey was left far behind.

Omar is not going to be happy lol

Dion Sims is working with Dustin Keller in the 2 TE package. The rookie appears to be the front runner for that package.

Omar.

Waiting for Omar to confirm these :shifty:

When this coaching staff sees something that it doesn't like, if experiments with various ways to fix it. Under Sparano, no changes were ever made, and I wonder if he ever even saw anything he didn't like.

Omar.

Nice. Wonder if they're going to use Charles Clay more like his 2011 role. More snaps at FB?

I read that Jerry has an undisclosed injury. I think you're about the move of RI to RG. It's probably all about RI's experience there and Thomas' experience on the left. I wonder what they thought of how Samuda looked at G yesterday?

Clay's interview on the official site has him talking about wanting o be known as a great blocker.

The FB position has been a weak spot so I suspect they are really trying to get some competition in there. If Clay can become a good blocker, that could become a great strength with his pass-catching and route-running ability. But, that is probably a big IF.
