Dolphins Training Camp: Open Thread 8/12
It's amazing the kind of firestorm that gets set off when you bring up the old reliable "Pennington vs Henne" debate. Things got heated yesterday and warning had to be given out. While healthy debate is fun and good for the blog, we got to keep it relatively clean and, most importantly, free of personal attacks on members of our community.
Anyways, we got two practices today to keep us occupied. The first is at 9 am this morning. The second is at 8 pm tonight. Both are indeed open to the public - weather permitting, of course.
As always, use this thread for all of your training camp discussion. As you find links to various practice reports, post them below. I will update this post as time allows with links to the reports to keep everyone as updated as possible.

QB Chad Pennington is practicing with a protective splint on his right shin, which he injured yesterday.

PBP:
Rookie Sean Smith once again working with the first-team defense at Wednesday’s morning workout. Randy Starks also ahead of Phillip Merling at defensive end for the third straight day.

Omar:
For the record, CB Jason Allen is doing BAD. But he hasn’t looked good. Suspect the Phins will try 2 trade him to a CB starved team 4 a pick

Yup. Much better read than Prisco. Shoot he thinks Cinci's gonna win big this year.
And I firmly believe Parcells (through Sparano) would/will have no problem yanking Penne for Henne anytime he feels like it.
It just isn’t the time yet.

I still say
that if we can’t resign Penne next year we should offer him a lucrative QB coaching contract
Does anyone know if Smith is still playing on 1st team

Extremely good by all Reports
From what I read he is running with a bigger burst cuts cleaner and hits the hole hard…Also, he has lost the fear with his knee so is doing things he was shying away from last year.

you will need to upload the photo to a site like photobucket
then you use the image button (the one that looks like a little picture) and copy and paste the URL of the image you just uploaded.
Make sense?

intresting tweet
Davone Bess continues to work with the first unit while Greg Camarillo handles the slot role
It may be that Camarillo has still a bit to go in his recovery, which is to be expected.

It s been said that Bess havent drop a pass
I will see the Dolphins win a SUPER BOWL before i die(22 years and counting)
I thought Bess was a little better.
When Camarillo got hurt and Bess stepped in, it really did seem as though Bess was an upgrade over him overall. Bess is quicker and has a little more explosion to his game. Camarillo is a technician.

Bess
Spent all Summer at the Phins Phacility in Davie catches balls flung at him from A Juggs machine. Who else did that? No one. That’s the kind of effort that makes someone great.
He was busting his ass and Penny was studying tape and working out. Those two are good examples for everyone.
Thats work ethic right there. You get paid to catch balls, why stop when the season ends? I really like Bess a lot.

i think our recieving core
is going to develope into something really special this year. we may even see defenses opting to double team bess or camarillo instead of ginn.
Maybe.... but that would be a mistake on them.....

Question:
Is the roster on the left of the front page updated? I thought SirVincent and Ethan Kilmer packed their bags…not cut, they just left I think. Or am I mistaken?
it sorta qualifies as the same thing right
left/cut. either way they are out of a job.
2009 is a year of respect ladies and gentlemen. Lets get it.
oh yes I know. But the players are on that roster
But new recent additions to the team are there as well. So i was confused as to if it was an updated roster and I had the wrong info about those players leaving or what
heard ginns been invisible lately
anyone worried yet. last year he was highly inconsistent as well. so much skill but hes gotta learn to be consistent!!!

well his skill set doesn't exactly match
the lame ducker’s strengths… so we all have to wait for henne to take over … and then it’ll be a 2 for one gain… a qb and a deep threat receiver that will become a factor.

So do you think the Jets intentionally did it to set the organization back 3 years or was it just an unintended side effect of their move.

well hes gotta learn to do somethin else than juz run deep for the long ball

well he does what the play calls for
and right now the coaching staff wants him to run wind sprints 40 times a game…
but once again, once that 2nd level of throwing zone is opened up… he’ll be able to operate just over the LB’s…
and once the cb’s have to respect his moves to the outside/sidelines (right now they always play the hash marks)…
they’ll be able to cross him more.

You're right on the skill set mismatch. The deep ball is always the fan favorite.
The best QB’s spread it around. 10-15 yds play wins games, too -to all the other “skill set” players.
But if you really don’t hate Mr Pennington, as you titled a thread previous, you could at least capitalize “Lame Ducker.”
He’s earned that much.

#3 would apply to any number of players then....
… Jason Taylor?
… Jason Ferguson?
… Jason Allen?
… Jason and the Argonauts?

If Bess increases his speed a little, id put him closer to Smith
He’s even said before that steve smith is his role model as a player
Ted Ginn is the man.
