Dolphins Training Camp: Open Thread 8/5

PrintToday we only get one practice - which is scheduled for 2 pm.
It'll be interesting to see if the tempers that flared yesterday have cooled off. I'd imagine they have - but you never know.
But the main thing to watch for is how the players respond following four practices over the previous two days. It's not easy coming off of two consecutive two-a-days this early in camp. Will Greg Camarillo be restricted at all? What about the vets like Jason Ferguson, Joey Porter, and Jason Taylor?
Prior to practice today, Tony Sparano met with the media and said that Roth does indeed have a groin injury - but it "isn't significant" according to the head coach. Roth will work on strength and conditioning beginning today with the team.
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.

Go Henne!

Henne not struggling, big arm got bigger, handling 80% of pre-season snaps? Ginn open deep consistently? I see dark clouds approaching...
No... I was aiming for strong agreement...

DE Phillip Merling has the best feet of all the defensive linemen. That nmust be why the Trifecta is banking on him blossoming.
that cause we all know the it is our formation.. they want to call it a fluke or a fad.. lol we all know better.. we will run this fad right down your throat
common sence says if you put a stick in it and stirr if it stinks.. stop.. toss the stick and just walk away.
I am telling you... CP10 watch out!!!
From Omar
Chad Henne’s best pass is the 15 yards out… “The Robot” is so mechanical with his throws. Rifle arm…

I'm just pointing out that his news isn't 100% positive.
I am looking forward to the preseason games.

I'm pointing that Henne should be struggling...
Just bringing forward a topic that will be among us until the end of the month…

Should he?
He was in contention for the starting position last year until CP10 came to town. He was already ahead of the normal rookie curve then, so I’d expect him to be pretty solid in practice now. He just needs to be tested in game situations.
Driver of the Trade-Ronnie-Brown Bandwagon.
Yeah, but who was Henne in front of last year before CP10 rode into town?
Attorney General of the Matty I Fan Club
A veteran backup,
which is much better than most QBs in their first year.
Driver of the Trade-Ronnie-Brown Bandwagon.
I think he should be struggling...
He never started, played in a handful of series… yes, he should still have growing pains.
I am getting more excited with Henne!!! I don’t know about you, but I think having a QB with a rocket arm is the way to go!!!

I am excited too,
but never having started should not cause him to struggle in practice.
I can’t wait for Ginn to shine when Henne steps in.

i like ginn
and hope he shows up to play this year. if he was a true #1, it wouldn’t matter who the qb was. i’ll give him one more year to prove he can be more than average, and i hope i’m wrong, but i doubt he will.

Patrick Turner just caught a 40 yard TD pass over Vontae Davis.

Patrick Turner is going to be a beast.
I am going to grab him as a UDFA sleeper in one of my fantasy leagues.

That is looking like a great pick... even more with all the critics at the time

What's up guys?
Any news on the rookie corners? They getting a shot on the first team yet?
And anything new with Turner?

Vontae just got beat badly by Turner,
but both the rookie corners are looking very good so far in camp.
Driver of the Trade-Ronnie-Brown Bandwagon.
Good to hear that.
All the good news I’ve been hearing about Davis and Smith has got me pretty excited. And like you said joel311, I think Turner is going to be a beast, and what I’m hearing from training camp is just reinforcing that idea.

It will be interesting to see which two guys make the squad between Turner, London, and Hartline.
All 3 are performing very well in camp. I think if London continues to perform, they might try and sneak Hartline onto the PS or possibly even keep 6 receivers.
Driver of the Trade-Ronnie-Brown Bandwagon.
Yeah... I think they should keep 6.

Wow this is funny
- Patriots Don’t Have OC, But… -
Wed Aug 5, 2009 —from FFMastermind.com
CBS Sportsline reports the New England Patriots do not have an offensive coordinator. Pats quarterbacks coach Bill O’Brien should assume that role. This situation is similar to when OC Charlie Weis left in 2004 and Josh McDaniels assumed the role of offensive coordinator even though he was the quarterbacks coach.

Just got back from camp...
And man, I am a big fan of Patrick Turner now. This kid is a freak of nature. He is tall and really can jump over anyone on the field. He caught everything that came his way and on way play jumped up and caught a ball that most receivers wouldn’t have even attempted.
Not much else to report. The corners def look better then in years past. I am upset because they did 90% of the practice on the opposite field. Kinda irked me a bit but all is well.
Let this season BE GINN!
Damn... Ginn better step it up quick or he's gonna be #2... behind Turner..!

They should put Henne up against Will Allen a couple times next practice.
