My Predictions For the Final 53 and Practice Squad

I still think its early for a 53 man prediction and kind of hard to predict due to us likely acquiring players via waiver wire. I think you'll see Titus Brown and Jayson Foster on the practice squad. Renaldo Hill could be gone. The battle between Kircus and Camarillo will be a good one imo, I don't think you went wrong with Kircus there since both are good for the fifth spot imo. I think Parmele makes the roster. He hits the whole hard with speed and power. Also, Ninkovich is one of the backup OLB's I believe so he is likely to stick.

Again, still early because of the possible waiver wire acquisitions but I think you did a good job of cutting it down with the current 75 man roster.

I think its pretty close to what we might see.

I think it might still be too early to settle the FB battle though. I like your choices are WR, I think Camarillo and Kircus are sitll a tossup at this point too though. Kircus has looked good in some game situations, made some nice plays in the TB game, so that probably helps him out a bit..

Other than that I cant disagree much. I think Mccown might get the edge over beck simply based on experience. Im not sure thats the right decision, but I can understand it. Im glad I don't have to make it.

Updated after the Travis Daniels trade and will continue to update as transactions happen.

Good job bro I agree with a lot of it. But know John Dunlap are you kidding me he will be the next Chad Johnson. Just kidding. Great job

Pretty good.
I do thing they will keep Pelle.

No camarillo? Last years hero and by most accounts the most QB friendly Wr through all of camp. Some reports said him and Hagan had the best camp

I agree with the bolded. As high as BP was on this kid, I don't think he goes anywhere. Honestly, I think that's why they haven't played him that much in games, especially at KR/PR. They don't want another team to see him and pick him up off waivers. I think it's been their plan all along to stash him on the PS.

Aside from that, I also agree that Parmalee prob makes the roster, and with the way Sparano was talking about Hill yesterday at the PC, he might make it also. IMO the bottom half of the o-line is going to be turnover from the waiver wire, as well as possibly some CB's, depending on who's available.

Other than that, I think you got a pretty accurate list there, Brown. Good job. :knucks:

These guys are goners in my opinion.

John Beck
Reagan Mauia
Justin Peelle
Greg Camarillo
Chris Roberson
Matthew Mulligan
Mike Byrne
Jayson Foster
Maurice Fountain
Junior Glymph
Titus Brown
Will Billingsley

What do you fellas think of my prediction for the Miami Dolphins 2008 roster?

Parmalee and Mauia will be on the 53

Camarillo is having an average camp and Kicus is a good possesion receiver and is a better special teams player.

Jalen Parmalee will make this team.

10 offensive linemen is too many.

Rod Wright is a DE in our 3-4.

Torbor is an interior linebacker.

Close, but not quite the same thing I see happening.

I'm aware I listed some of the players at positions they won't be starting at but in this scheme a lot of players will be moving around. Either way I see them both making the team.

They are also listed in no particular order. I may have to look it over again and make a change or two but I'll wait until the next pre-season game to decide if I will make a change.

Good list. I disagree in a couple of areas.

I think we'll pickup off the waiver wire:

WR, waive Kircus
TE, waive Martin
OL, waive Nduke

Titus Brown and Jayson Foster--Practice Squad
Lionel Dotson and Lex Hilliard----cut

But for the most part, I like your list.

IMO, Cammarillo beats out Kirkus as he is a better ST player in terms of kick coverage, that was how Camarillo made his bones, and your practice squad has KR aplenty in Foster and Armstrong in case Ginn is injured.

And Moses has done -0-, Ninkovich has played better, and he also plays ST.

I think Mauia is going to be on the outside looking in.:wink2:

The wide receivers need to make sure they catch everything. There could be wide receivers that are brought on to this team that are free agents now, or will be released in the future.

I like it, however I'm not sure Crowder will be replaced by Akin. Crowder is a leader on defense and I can't see him fulfilling that role as a back up.

Hey Jim have you posted over at JetNation yet with your new sig?:lol:

I thought the PS was only 5 players?

Oh yeah, it's my avatar. BP said is was bad photoshopping, but I know he secretly likes it :lol:

Totally agree with this, but I understand why the FO is shopping Beck. If we can get good value for him, I won't be totally heartbroken to see him go.

However, if we can't, he needs to stay with the team over McCown.

IMO.

Nope, its eight.

Not from what I have read. Camarillo has shined more so than Kircus and I believe it is Camarillo who is more of a special teams ace. That is how he made the team last year and has continued to impress in kick coverage this year. I do like Kircus though and would like to see him make the team

They aren't listed in any particular order. I think I'll put that in the OP to avoid any more confusion.

Yup. We generally carry one FB, and Grigsby looks better in that role, is a decisive and capable lead blocker and also looks better on STs covering punts and kicks. He'll be one of our leading STs tacklers this year, IMO.

Mauia looks like another wasted pick by the inept Casper Milquetoast regime.

It does no good, makes no sense, I agree, to have McCown as the #3.
The only possible idea I could imagine they have in mind, is if they trade or release Beck, that they cut McCown too, and bring in someone from the outside as the #3 developmental QB. Does anyone else carry a mediocre journeyman as their #3 I wonder?
