My money's on Vontae lol

It just keeps getting better and better, UGG

Hall-of-Famer Dan Marino made his NFL debut for the Dolphins on this day in 1983.

Per Jason La Canfora Tweet: Dolphins are re-signing RB Larry Johnson. Makes you wonder how ready their rookie draft pick is to get carries and pass protect.

If true, I wonder who's leaving?

I apologize to Mosul for the repost, but with all of the team news lately, my original post got bumped down into the blackhole and we have 2 spots still open for tomorrows draft. If we can't fill all of the teams, we can't have a draft.

Thanks to everyone who has joined already!

I set up a Fantasy Football League at NFL.com and wanted to invite you to join my league. It's my first time doing this, so please bear with me. I thought it would be fun to give it a try and maybe some of you haven't joined a league already or want to play in another one.

12 teams, 2 divisions, 4 teams left 3 teams left 2 teams left.

*Update - only 5 spots left!

After the BM incident was pretty well forgotten, Ben Volin decides to stir the pot. Ridiculous timing.

Williams signed a two-year deal. It’s worth up to $4 million.

A person familiar with the NFL negotiations told The Associated Press that players would not vote Wednesday on a deal to end the lockout.

This will make things interesting....

That's because it never was flexed in the first place.

ESPN Stats & Information notes that 31 quarterbacks have attempted more throws that have traveled longer than 20 yards in the air than Henne has.

Opponents have a league-high 149.8 passer rating in those situations, completing 16 of 20 passes for 239 yards and two touchdowns. They've forced zero interceptions and recorded three sacks.

ESPN Stats & Information sorts each play in about every imaginable way, and those researchers inform us when opponents send a defensive back after Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer, he shreds them.

Palmer has completed 74.5 percent of his passes for 465 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions and four sacks, according to Stats & Information's records against added pressure from the secondary. He ranks fourth with a 119.5 passer rating.

On the flip side, Dolphins quarterback Chad Henne ranks immediately behind Palmer in this category with a 117.4 passer rating. Henne has completed 62.5 percent of his passes for 236 yards and a league-high four touchdowns. He has thrown one interception and has been sacked once.

The Miami Dolphins signed former Dallas Cowboys fullback Deon Anderson after terminating the contract of linebacker Bobby Carpenter, who struggled on special teams.

The 5-foot-10, 245-pounder former Cowboys sixth-round draft pick was selected in the 2007 NFL draft out of Connecticut.

Sad news. Reports are coming in from all around that NFL that Broncos WR Kenny McKinley has taken his own life. He was 23 years old. A 5th Round Draft Pick in 2009, McKinley missed all of 2009 with a knee injury. He was hoping to return to form in 2010, but another knee injury forced him back on I/R early in Training Camp.

My prayers go out to the McKinley family.

The average Dolphin had 3.47 seasons of experience, lowest in the AFC and second-lowest in the league. They carried 13 rookies or first-year players, tied for third in the NFL. They have only four players who are 30 or older, fewest in the NFL.

The Dolphins had the second-heaviest club last year at 251.38 pounds, reflective of Bill Parcells' longstanding attitude that bigger is better. They actually got bigger this year, averaging 253.62 pounds, but dropped to third behind Parcells' previous team, the Dallas Cowboys, and the Baltimore Ravens (by two-one hundredths of a pound).

Ouch!

I never understood the rules, this clears it up

Nice article from From Tim Graham - "Polite's game is all about violence -- marrow-rattling blocks and sledgehammer runs." Couldn't have said it better myself.

Guess if he can't get anywhere in basketball in case of a work stoppage, he's got soccer to fall back on?

That didn't take long.

According to Rams sideline reporter Brian Stull of 101 ESPN in St. Louis, the Dolphins are reportedly one of the teams that is "very interested" in former BYU running back Harvey Unga.

BYU's all-time leading rusher with 3,455 yards, the 6-foot-1, 215-pound Unga is slated to work out for at least 14 NFL teams a week before the supplemental draft on July 8.

URGG!

Aaron Wilson of the National Football Post reports the New England Patriots are in the lead to acquire receiver Anquan Boldin from the Arizona Cardinals.

I don't know if playing in Florida means playing for the fins, bucs, or jags?
