kinda takes him out of the TE mix though ... maybe he can make up for Turner .... since we already know he can get on the field and make some catches .... very interesting
-
Sheets is a HB not a TE. I forget the name of the TE we signed late...gah.
However that has to be the shortest, least informative interview I've EVER read.PhinsRock and azfinfanmang like this. -

BTW, how hungry are "we" for Dolphin's news?
Since WQAM pulled the plug on Bokamper's Dolphins tonight there is just nothing to fill the void at the moment as the 610am and 940am stations simply have not launched a new Dolphins only show.DolfanJake, Larryfinfan, late again and 2 others like this. -

I'm surprised no one picked up on Ireland's comments about the Mike Nolan hiring concerning Nolan also being here would help "a young head coach in Tony Sparano".
Sparano supposedly told Porter that "I am not going to let you get in the way of the young guys (wake and anderson) progressing"
Which is an odd voice to take on Sparano's part, and I love me some Tony Sparano, I just wonder if Porter went volcano and Sparano had to eat some crap he probably shouldn't of had to in order to placate Porter during the failed playoff run.
That would explain why Ireland did not try to peddle Porter even though he had value in the NFL.
But let's face it, that is grasping at straws. -
Sheets is a good player i hope we keep him on our team i would rather have him over Cobbs, or Hiliard. i love that he has been working out since before the Pro bowl

Yeah it's gonna be dry until draft day.....those bloggers gotta turn over every rock I suppose.
And I hope Nolan's hire does help Sparano, IMO he needs some help......he also need to improve this year as a HC.padre31 likes this. -
It's gonna be hard to say until we see them all in some pre season games. Looking forward to that.... -
wasn't he more familiar with the system at that time? -

Sparano's love for the 2pt conversion and he had some bad moments at the end of the first half, the NFL did change that rule about challanges at the end of a half, but Sparano also had some flubs. -
I think some of those INT's can be attributed to just being a rookie and some attributed to being a rookie that was forced to do more than should have been asked.........especially with the lack of play making targets he had to work with.
Personally I think he was pretty damn impressive, all things considered....I saw things from that position that we've been missing for quite some time. -
Someone needs to tell him that taking a sack is not the end of the world, that was probably his largest repeated gaffe, going down and just chucking the ball up lead to 3 int's.
Another two came from not relating a defender's position to where the Receiver is, the Titans game in the endzone on a wheel route to Ricky W, and the Pitt game when Gay cut underneath the route and picked the ball off.
Seriously, those were 5 of his 14 int's, clear mistakes that experience should erase in 2010. -
Even so........he was a first year guy that didn't even get the benefit of getting #1 QB reps in TC.
He went 7-6 against the toughest schedule in the league, meanwhile Penny showed no reason to believe he could have done any better
Not saying Henne is a lock or that he doesn't need to improve.....but I like what I saw and I can't see how anyone could think that adding some play makers wouldn't benefit him, greatly.
He, unlike past QB's, actually has the arm to make use of them. -

Down 17 pts removes 8 minute drives from the menu.
And I do like Henne's game do not misunderstand. -
-
LMAO =) I read through a few pages on his twitter page and see nothing and that's as far as I'm willing to look as reading those pages hurts my eyes:lol: -
-
I think JS is correct. Lex had a lot more time in the system and was much more familiar with it. They knew what to expect from him.
Depending on whom we draft, I think both Sheets and Tristan Davis will get a chance to compete for the 3rd RB spot. We don't know how well Cobbs can come back. -

But Sheets was light yrs ahead in productivity at Rb at Purdue.
I tend to prefer shorter kick returners, they are easier to get lost behind blockers on returns. -
This isn't really much of an interview, just some form questions. Not very insightful form questions either.
But, who cares. Kory Sheets is my roster dark horse this year. I liked the signing when Cobbs went down, and I think he's good enough to stick despite the mass of talented bodies at RB. IMO, he'd be a lock if Ricky weren't still here.
Bold prediction: Sheets becomes our return man. -
I think Sheets is in the mix, the thing of it is, he also has to cover kicks and punts, something he has not done in College and NFL.
Sheets is in the mix I'd think, as is Davis, RGM, Pruitt etc, but Sheets offers the most upside as a positional player out of that mix. -
Pad, are you saying you'd rather have CP starting this year vice Henne ???
Please don't tell me this is so ......
IMHO it's 'nice' to have him as a security blanket ... but for all else -- i'd rather do without him. his presence is going to put pressure on Henne -- admittedly or not. could he still mentor regarding game management ... sure, but since they play 2 different types of games -- he can't show or help Henne be a better Henne .... i'd rather (and i said this before) he spend the spring with Marino .... that is a much better match for him. -

No mistakes you have the battle mostly won, if your Qb is not turning over the ball but still driving the team for scores, that forces the opponent to play a perfect game because any mistake they make will be capitalized upon.
That is the essence of Sparano Football, not 40 passes or more per game all over the ballfield.Alex44 likes this. -
I'm not going to say whether Henne or Pennington should start. However I will say that like Padre I wasn't quite as high on his play as some others.
He has the physical abilities to make some VERY difficult throws. However I think at this point it's easy for us as fans to be wowed by physical gifts we haven't had around for so many years.
There were some serious flaws in his game, which were understandable considering he was in his first year starting. However that doesn't mean for certain that they will be corrected. His pocket presence for instance. He doesn't have very much feel for the back side pressure, and he doesn't read the defense very well pre snap it seems. Too many times there were free rushers he should have known would be free BEFORE the snap based on the number of blockers vs defensive players there were on a given side.
Also as Padre mentioned he made some BAD reads. -
K. Sheets = HB
K. Spery = TE -
In poking around looking for information on what will replace Dolphins Tonight I found that they hoped to launch the new show by April, and will run from 5-7pm on 910am.
