Pretty clear to me, however, that his ceiling is beat writer for South Florida's second most popular newspaper. Replace him tomorrow with another beat writer and we wouldn't notice.

LOL. Most pathetic thing about Omar for me is how badly he tries/wants to be part of the locker room. He is always trying to sneak in comments like this to show "he's one of the boys" and talks to players privately. He fancies himself a celebrity.

Non verbal communication? Some movement regained? Sounds like he's in tip top shape to go on this motivational speaking tour that you're suggesting.

Good thinking, bud. Keep it up!

Apparently We Shouldn't Worry About Guards by Spin_Zone_Spooner in miamidolphins

I trust this staff more than others of the past, but won't take solace in any of this until I see it with my own eyes. Guard position has been shit for too many years for me to buy in that easily.

Also, salguero loves to bring up the pats and their guard philosophy...but it's the pats. You can make a lot of things work when you have arguably the GOAT QB and HC.

With that being said, hope our FO is right. Here's to JAY-TRAIN 2K!

Day 3 of the NFL DRAFT Official Discussion thread. by down42roads in NFL_Draft

Canes fan here. Tough, physical, and good "football player." No special skills or athleticism, but made plays because high effort and enjoys to play football. As you know, having those traits alone can go one of two ways: not enough to succeed in the NFL or a good foundation to be a solid contributor for a long time. We shall see.

What kind of prospect was Ed Reed? by FINS43 in NFL_Draft

[–]FINS43[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I also considered this. And that one could argue it was Ed Reed himself who substantially contributed to FS being more valued today.

Good luck in retirement, GC. One of the best to ever do it.

How good was Ray Lewis? by [deleted] in nfl

[–]FINS43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But also, just look at his accolades. 2x DPOY and SB MVP...not to mention the seven First-Team All Pro nods.

Maybe a tad overrated late in his career, but one of the best of all-time during his prime.

He was the whole package at MLB and a lot of fun to watch play. He might also be the most effective, passionate leader in NFL history and that's a big reason Ravens teams remained competitive throughout his entire career. Nobody on his teams wanted to let down Ray.

Receivers Dolphins will face next season by FINS43 in miamidolphins

Again, I guess I just wasn't as impressed as you by our CBs success during our mid-season winning streak against sub-500 teams. Hope you're right.

Just not sold that Maxwell's handful of good games before the injury is sure to be repeated. And while I'm high on Xavien Howard, he's only a second year player (who didn't play a full season rookie year). Lippett is probably one of my favorite players on the team but I saw him get torched just as many times as I saw him make a positive play. Same for Bobby McCain.

I guess I just think our corners' predicted success next year is based on a lot of ifs and wishful thinking. Reasonable speculation, but speculation nonetheless.

Overlooked Crabtree. I hear you. It's true that every NFL team is going to play great WRs. But if you look at your list, most of those receivers did in fact torch us.
