Phins sign 8 future stars.........(j/k)

Marcus Thigpen is an interesting sign.

Thigpen is an ace returner type

Hogan is from Miles Austin's school and a big Wr

Agnew just keeps on keeping on, nice speed though.

Hoping we also sign Jovan Olafioye as well.

Not really sure what this means. If someone with more football IQ would explain it to me I would appreciate it. Are they just camp fodder or is it possible that they actually make the team and contribute somewhat in the future?

Chances are none of them will make the team, however some great players used to be camp fodder.

We can sign people now? And how do you guys know who these players are? what are you guys scouts, don't you have jobs lol

Seeing him play, im hoping Isaako Aaitui does good. With that said, our football program is terrible

Ireland's not wasting any time jump-starting the offseason. :lol:

Good for Jeff.

Fixed..now we can be excited.

As an Buckeye fan, I hated Anderson Russell when he played at OSU.

These are the guys threads will be made about next preseason extolling their virtues!!!!!

:lol:

Of them all, Marcus Thigpen has the best shot at making an impact, even then he will enter OTA's the #4-#5 guy at Returner, where he goes from there...who knows?

First of all, who is Dewayne Wade. Second of all, we're supposed to be excited about Tyler Thigpen?

Yeah, I thought that was how to spell it.

Is the NBA lockout over yet?

You have no idea what you walked into around here do you?

Wade will impress with quick feet, I can tell you that. Other aspects of his game need some work and from what I remember he struggled to diagnose things at times. Maybe Coyle can bring him around, as he has some nice physical skills, or at least he did.

No, some of us, like Conuficus, only pretend to be one.

Well, it gets better as the draft comes along. There's a bunch of stuff out there from members. There will even be a list of potential draftees that up until last year (haven't updated the tally) had resulted in only two players being drafted by the Fins over the last 3 years that were not on that list.

All these guys are bums and will be cut before or during training camp.

Future stars? LOL. I doubt seriously if any of these players will be on the 53 man roster at the beginning of the 2012 season. Ninety nine percent of the free agents signed at this time of the year are nothing but players added to the roster for competitive purposes during training camp. If any one of these players is even in the NFL next season on any team, much less the Dolphins, I will be completely surprised.
