@FieldYates The Dolphins worked out former 49ers RB LaMichael James, per league source.
Thoughts? Mods can you add James to title? Finger slip :(

I don't know a lot about him just that a lot of people were really high on him before his injuries. It can't hurt. Miller isn't getting it done.

James being from Oregon, I was a big fan of his in college. He was a dynamic impact player for the Ducks. Big play threat from anywhere on the field.

I agree. I think Miller, as much talent as he has, cannot catch a ball consistently to keep this offense moving. As a runner I like him but bringing in James for screens etc is kind of exciting.

Larry Little, the 23rd, MikeHoncho and 1 other person like this. -
I suspect Miller may show up on the IR report.

J/K...I'm just not happy with him at the moment. -

Miller and Thomas are just not going to get it done, this combination just doesn't have what it takes to get it done. Bring someone else in until we can get Moreno back.

That would be an interesting move if Miller is out a few weeks. Hell, I'd be inclined to sign James, then cut Thomas again. Or if you're worried about James not knowing the offense, use Thomas this week, then sign James and cut DT

Miller played in 23 games with the UM. During those games he had a total of 28 pass receptions. That works out to just a little more than 1 catch per game. So I'm not really sure how catching passes could be considered one of his strengths as a college RB.
I attended all the home games he played in at UM and he never struck me as a back other teams had to be concerned with in the passing game. -
If he could do 1/4 of what Sproles does for the Eagles...
I still have no idea why Miami re-signed Daniel Thomas. That's like reaching for a safety blanket that's shredded with holes. -

We need a kick returned...I think that is why we are inquiring about James. Doubt he'd really be used in any part of our offense, but you never know. Maybe we sign him and he comes in and plays. I just think we need a return man. Doubt he'd help us in the run game.

Im all for giving James a tryout. Would be nice if we called Seastrunk ... but he's probably too development for us. I can't imagine he's much worse of a receiver or blocker than Miller though. Better runner too.
Frankly, our RB situation sucks. Lamar Miller is OK but that's it. He's not a #1 or #2 RB. He but because he played for UM, fans want to give him more time... All Lamar ever did was cost us Reggie Bush. -

There will be some competition for him I believe.

I'm thinking KR, maybe PR.
