Really underrated/high IQ block here. Outside zone left bends back. Jones has the LB (

None of the OL (Paul included) graded out amazing vs Falcons. Ryan Hayes had a couple really bad reps that are easy to put a bullseye on. However, if you watch his entire body of work - he probably had a more positive game than you may think.

For 2024, I would not be surprised to see him supplant Lamm as the LT2, swing tackle, or have a 'heavy' package to get him some game experience.

Don't think many are 'shocked' by this.
BUT - this is a vote of confidence for Weaver IMO.
Campbell played for Weaver's unit in Baltimore and has no reason to suffer in this heat for a few more $ for retirement.
He's here because he believes this team is ready to win big.
Homecoming: Long-time Pro Bowl DE Calais Campbell, one of the biggest name free agents available, is expected to sign with the

He's in a perfect place to develop behind TStead under the coaching of Barry, Smith, and McDaniel.
The goal is that the 2nd round pick develops, and in 2025 is high 1st round caliber stepping in for TStead and locking up LT for the next decade.

Mauler is an overused word for OL. Mahogany is a MAULER in the run game. Consistent movement and does a good job combo'ing to LBs. Need convinced? Just turn on the 2nd half of the UConn game where BC just keeps running right again and again.

MY Conclusion: Paul is a highly talented left tackle (not guard). He might not have been my top guy at 55, but he was close. My pre draft notes say that he COULD be a Day1 starter, but I wouldn't go in with him as the only option.
He doesn't have to do that in Miami.

A lot being made of this quote.
But Tua basically said the exact same thing when asked about the health of the WR room.
What the take away should be:
Tua isn't making excuses.
Tua Tagovailoa on his comfort playing behind fluctuating Dolphins interior OL: "Well brother, I get the ball out fast. So I'm comfortable with whoever we got out there."

Definitely like Meyer. Some added strength with an NFL weight training program and this is the type of player that could develop as a starter in waiting as they decide whether to transition from Brewer.

The market is what it is. You've been a Dolphins fan for a long time and have seen crap QB play over and over again. Nobody WANTS to pay 50/yr. But what's your plan if you don't?
Either your believe in Tua and you accept what the market is.
Or you don't.
It's that simple.

Devils advocate here. Following covered/uncovered principles - which appears to what Miami was doing, Jones should have been comb'ing with Liam up to the MLB.
Liam's position on the nose (taking the right half) helps sell that idea.
This is 3rd & 1 on that first TD drive last night. Miami’s short yardage weakness comes squarely into focus as Liam Eichenberg gets destroyed off the snap, Jonnu Smith probably shouldn’t be the Y trying to prevent an OLB crashing the middle, and Mostert can’t push the pile.

If Ross wanted Watson, Watson would be a Dolphin. I think he was open to it and made a half attempt to pursue him to appease Flores. But Watson wasn't settling and Ross wasn't budging on his requirements. I dont think it was ever close.

Not a lot of UTEP film available - but from what i've found, Meyer is intriguing.

Watching an Alex Gibbs OZ clinic.
Listen to him describe the OL they were looking for - and remember that McDaniel came through the ranks running this scheme and possibly even being around Gibbs.
Miami isn't looking at OL the same as other teams.

Listen to this and understand why evaluating OL from the outside is challenging.
They are literally coaching every player different. So you or I may think an aiming point or punch landmark is off.
But the reality is that nobody is speaking facts unless they're in the room.
I asked Butch Barry how the team can maximize working on the timing of their run schemes and second level fits with players on so many different foundations of skill and all of the cross-training in camp.

Overall, I really like this draft. I had 3 positions in mind:

Edge: Doubled down with some highly athletic pass rushers
WR: Doubled down with the Washington Boys
S: Only a 6th- but I like McMorris

On the surface, Paul's performance was solid, but that's what you should expect from a guy of Paul's talent vs fringe 53 players.
Enjoy the success - but be cautious in crowning him after preseason game 1.
When the Dolphins drafted Patrick Paul , a lot of people were calling him a developmental player. Or, some just said he needs a little bit of fine-tuning.
Based on last night, the dude looks and sounds like an orchestral instrument.
And that mask.

It's the same Tua, but he trusts his playmaker and his reads enough that he's throwing to a spot and knowing Tyreke will be there. This is way more of a mental win than anything

On T. Conner making the roster:
I think there's 2 very different roles for the TEs and they were set on 2 of each.
Smythe/Hill (Y) vs Jonnu/Conner (F).
So all Conner had to do was be better than Fortson, which he was.
Rucci may have been better, but he's the PS in-line(Y) TE3

While I am skeptical about Chop Robinson's ability to contribute on early downs as a rookie - I get the pick. He has rare attributes that you can't coach.
There's not another guy that went Rd1 that I would have banged the table for.

Tua declaring doesn't change the fact he's likely not able to start 2020, if play at all. What bad team can afford to trade up and wait for that? And what good team would do it? It's risky even for Miami, but they have the time and resources to take that risk

Miami signed Brewer because they couldn't wait & see on Williams. Williams was a 12m+/yr C without the injury.
Was not the same caliber as a guard.
IMO - He's going to want to go where he can sign 1 year as a C and prove he can still play at a high level to cash in for 2025.
@OmarKelly
I get the sense C. Williams will sign a 1 yr deal with a contender and not the Dolphins. It’s a shame because if he is moved over to RG he immediately is an upgrade over Liam and Jones. But knowing the fins they will want to see the Eichenberg experiment through.

Creed Humphrey was the best C in the 2020 draft and returned to get picked apart by evaluators and fall to the Chiefs in 2021. Fashanu would have been the best OT in the 2023 draft and didn't get worse.
Don't make this harder than it should be.

I thought this was something they struggled with as a group in this game. Not this specific play, but overall there is a lot more meat on the bone in terms of being better at climbing to the 2nd level on combo blocks.
Also a nice adjustment to assist Fortson with Conner here.
When you come out to practice and you watch the OL in indys, you’ll see rep after rep of catching and climbing off double teams. See it here on each of these Jaylen Wright runs in the Baldy breakdown.

I don't see Graham Barton as an NFL OT after watching his FSU game. However, he has good enough film to slide over if needed. He plays with very good technique to help negate his lack of arm length. One arm is longer than two. See this a lot with new Miami center, A. Brewer

I had been thinking Newton could be considered at 21. But they seem to be loading up on volume and letting competition force the cream to the top. And I'm OK with that. Weaver has a DL background and Clarke is a good DL coach. It's one area where I think they can develop talent.

I had this down as an 'L' rep for Jones. I assume because he was in a solid 2i, Rob was expecting he was going to get fat contact here and tried to post him to Liam but in reality Liam deserved more trust to cross face and Rob could have given the kickstand help like Lester gave

Pretty close to the Grier mold of DBs. A little heavier and that maybe shows up in his SS that is a little off the mark. Played SS in TCU's 3-3-5 defense.

Chop Robinson CAN play the run. He just doesn't do it well nearly enough. Both in the run and pass game, he has a tendency to get stuck on one move (usually a speed rush) and run himself out of the play.
The potential is there. Weaver & Clark just need to refine it.

I've been trying to figure out what was in his hand. I think it's a grip strength trainer, which I don't think he'd be using casually if not close to returning.
Teams are also very careful about letting injuries be seen. If there was a concern, I think he'd have a glove on.
