Gonna change it up today so instead of just writing out the 11 on 11 plays just some overall thoughts.
I watched Jalen Ramseys every step, watched how he turned, pivoted and just walked.
Maybe he’s right and will come back a month early.
Tell you what I noticed today that perhaps I overlooked
Robbie Anderson is a talented football player, he’s absolutely making this team, top 4 imo..
Tyreek hill I could tell was zeroed in today, I’ve watched him in drills many times, today he was 100 percent on output and looking the ball in an extended period of time.
It showed up, unless someone beat him out in defense no question orange jersey tommorow. No drops on at least 7 catches in 11 on 11, not counting how he embarrassed the falcon dbacks in 7on 7 and 1 on 1’s.
Outside of Qb best offensive player in the game
Berrios had a very nice day today, a few tough catches, he’s looking good getting off press with his repertoire.
Robbie Anderson also had a nice day today..He’s smooth deceptive and has strong hands on a lean frame, that’s the thing that stands out, strong hands in traffic.
I believe Ez is better in the slot.
I didn’t think Tua had a good day of practice I would say so so but it’s practice no game planning..
Tua did hit waddle twice to end practices, the balls were perfectly thrown and today that’s what waddle needed, he struggled catching the football, even on some reported incompletions he had chances to make the catches and didn’t.
But the guy is hi level except this component. Might keep him from being an all pro.
Mike white…. Meh, if the pocket is there and the route is open sure he can fire it, but I don’t see much here when it comes to a variety of throws.
He was def 2nd team today, let’s see how Skylar responds in preseason.
Chris’s brooks had an impressive rep. Just footwork for a big man type stuff
Achane with an excellent rep and finish, footwork vision to pick the right hole the finishes with power for 6.
Ahmed looked good today
Now Mostert he’s def been working on his hands, he caught the first deep wheel route I’ve seen him catch since being a dolphin, caught all his targets today.
Julian Hill body is just ridiculous, he really looks the part..the character and leadership there, work ethic check, what make him go undrafted we’ll see.I’m curious to find out. I see him round off routes on occasion.
I don’t think Braylon Sanders has a shot at making this team, Ez and Wilson make 6.
Without seeing the defense at all except one rep for the pick 6 by McKinley it’s hard to judge the practice but if I’m factoring everything in I’d say is was about a tie. Maybe slightly to the falcons with four ints and special teams.

I'm hearing that Waddle was hurt at end of practice. Did you see it and does it look concerning?

The league learning.
-
The defense is usually ahead pf the offense early on.
-
And they’re back!

-
The reports I have been reading is that there is a good back and forth in practices. Sometimes the defense dominates, sometimes the offense dominates.
-
I have. They have been getting a lot of long passes, long runs, and touchdowns.

Joint practices are not the ideal proving grounds, but against a capable and dangerous Miami offense, we’re seeing something. We’re seeing the Falcons show up with fire and physicality, and impartial observers and Dolphins-centric reporters alike are noticing.
I’ve harped on the need to not put too much stock in practice, so I’m not going to reverse course here. What I will say is that this Miami offense is not out there lollygagging with their talent and their coaching staff, so this is an earned result. Atlanta has a new defensive coordinator and an infusion of talent that includes one of the league’s better young safeties, multiple respected veteran defensive linemen, and help at linebacker. They should be better, and ahead of actual game action, they look like they might just be.
Atlanta’s day on offense wasn’t quite as inspiring, but again, the presence of playmakers like Drake London, Bijan Robinson, and Kyle Pitts should translate into at least competence, as it did last year minus Robinson, minus Pitts for long stretches, and with some fascinating displays of accuracy under center. We saw solid efforts a year ago defensively with much less on hand, but history has taught us to be cautious about the hope we invest in baseline performances and big gains alike.
In short, seeing is believing for so many things, the Falcons defense among them. With the talent on hand and their aggression against a quality opponent even in practice, we might just be set to see something we’ve waited a long time for. -

Because folks are already being Chicken Little, running around that the sky is falling again…
All over what’s happened in PRACTICE -
Over reacting to wins and losses in the preseason is quite the norm in Dolphin land.
