Dolphins worked out 8 players including QBs: Austin Davis, James Vandenberg, and Nick Stephens.

Aaron Wilson ‏@RavensInsider 3h
Dolphins tryout included quarterback Austin Davis, corner Devin Smith, who was signed, and quarterbacks James Vandenberg and Nick Stephens

So the qb workouts are most likely tied to his injury and / or possible roster manipulation. I say possible in that there is a small chance the team might try to move him down to the practice squad. I hope not, but have to at least acknowledge it.

Nick Stephens is a real interesting name. Spent training camp with the Cowboys most recently. Went to school at Tarleton State!

"It was a pretty big advantage to have signed when I did and get a jump on things," Stephens said. "I feel like I've taken advantage of it up to this point. There is always so much more to learn, and it's not just learning it, but it's putting it together on the field. That's probably the most difficult part. You can sit down and draw them a million times, but until you get on the field and look everyone in the eyes and repeat this long play to them, that's when it gets ticked up a notch."

The Flower Mound product is one of three quarterbacks who threw at the s rookie minicamp last weekend, along with Dalton Williams and Aaron Corp. But Stephens is the only one who has been here long enough to get a star on his helmet.

I guess we'll just have to go and get a guy who WON'T lock in to receivers. :shifty:

Oh, no... One game into the season and they're already looking to bail on Tannehill. Looks like another rebuild is on the way :pity:.

Nonsense, it's simple foresight for a change. With an offensive line like ours, were going to need 6 QB's before the season is done. :tongue2:

The fact that they signed a corner is more interesting.

Devlin is still nicked so Davis goes on the PS to run the scout team. Presley was with us all last year so they know what he has (and doesn't have). Smith is a new guy to kick the tires. Surprised when the Pats cut Francis we didn't try and sign him to our PS. Curious especially since Pupelo (or however he spelled it) was already released from the PS

Even though he just replaced a CB that was already on the PS? Not that interesting to me.

I'm just goofing with meister because another thread had dozens of posts regarding the nuances of Tanny either staring down receivers or looking off defenders. I wanted meister to know I'm watching him...intently...muahahaha

Davis is similar to Devlin in that he is smart and has limited arm strength. He was a very good leader at USM and didn't mind getting in some faces. Saw a lot him running Larry Fedora's offense. His stay might not be long, but I am excited about him being with the Dolphins being a USM graduate. Always pull for fellow alumni from USM and UGA. Need to get some more Georgia guys on this roster lol.

I thought he looked pretty good in the video highlights I saw. Had some catch-up speed, and good anticipation/reaction when the ball was in the air.

His shuttle would have been 3rd best at the combine behind B.W. Webb and Desmond Trufant. His cone would have been 2nd best, behind just some dude named Will Davis, who had the best cone time at the combine.
