Training Camp Day 3 - pads on

[jayfan]

They practiced in pads for the first time yesterday. Below are some reports and observations from the practice. Of note to me from the reports:

> Stafford looks good but for a couple overthrows

> Van Noy is struggling a bit

> Tyrunn Walker looks slow

> Gabe Wright was a "dud" in one-on-one drills

> Wooten and Devin Taylor were "studs" in one-on-one drills

> Zenner took a lot of hits, but did ok.

If Walker isn't looking good in practice by tomorrow I'm going to be concerned.

 

[RobBase]

So basically, we have no one at DT.

 

[broncosmitty]

For the most part, nope, nobody.

Walker's in the same boat Ngata's in. Transitioning from being a read-first, two-gap nose tackle. Hope it works out.

Well Suh plays for the Dolphins now, so nobody else in the league has anyone at DT, nor will they ever again... or at least no other team will have shit at DT until after the 2016 season when the Dolphins have to cut Suh because of the outrageous contract they had to give him to come play for their crappy football team. At that point some other shitty team will be able to rent him for a couple years while they destroy their salary cap, too...

Yawn. Pouncey, re-signed. Tannehill, re-signed. Wallace contract traded to Vikes. Dolphins will be fine. Just because Mayhew ruined the Lions cap, doesn't mean every GM is as dumb as him.

Not all of them, just the one paying well over $20 million a year to a DT.

If you really believed this, you would accept the lifetime avatar bet. But you know deep down that Dolphins > Lions. Your posts say one thing, but your actions speak the real truth.

You and your silly bets.

Why is your sense of manhood tied so strongly to these nonsense bets? What on Earth do you think winning an arbitrary bet is going to prove to anyone?

You gots issues, homes...

 

[tpaulus_2]

And your attempts at psychological games are really pretty sad...

Just take the bet, chicken. What are you so afraid of?

Hope there's some life preservers on that boat.

No kidding!

I'm not afraid of anything- turning down pointless bets doesn't mean shit.

I think the real question is what are you so afraid of?

 

[RobBase]

The point is you're full of it with your Lions > Dolphins nonsense.

You call me a troll, but you're not even confident enough to back up your own predictions.

Dolphins are 8 million over next years projected cap already. Now there are fixes for that kind of thing, but those fixes are exactly what everyone kills Mayhew for. Dolphins cap situation does not look great at the moment.

 

[tpaulus_2]

Lions > Dolphins at pretty much every position except DT and RB.

It doesn't look like the catastrophic mess some like to make it out to be either.

Shallow prediction.
