This article from pft is about M.Crabtree. I just wanted to say how happy I am that this is my team with these players. I mean we (some) got mad when PW and the 5th rd guy signed the night before camp started. Crabtrees agent is saying that he is a top 5 talent and should get paid like that. He has even said that if they dont meet his demands (dont know what they are, im guessing top 5 money) then his client will re-enter the draft... really? Obv this is a ploy by the agent and no player in their right mind would miss out on a year of money and re-enter. Also not to mention what if a CBA gets done and a rookie scale set in place.

Final question.. Do you think the Raiders made the right move taking DHB and not Crabtree... Looked moronic at the time, but now who knows.

Still Turning Over Ever Rock..

Saw this article on the Sun Sent. Looks like we have signed a reciever off the 49ers practice squad to replace J. Smiley. Dont know anything about this guy but he will be on the 53 man roster on Sunday most likely for S.T purposes. Heres the link:

I was doing nothing at work today (as usual) and came across this story and figured Id share it with you guys...

After the final undefeated team loses, Dick Anderson and fellow 1972 Dolphin Nick Buoniconti have had a champagne toast ''pretty much every year since 1992,'' Anderson said. But Anderson said they will not in the wake of Tennessee's loss to the Jets on Sunday: ``It's bittersweet -- I'm not going to celebrate a Jets victory.''

I was over at Finsnation reading what the dude has to say (always hilarious) and I saw this gem!! I just wanted to let everyone see how much of a great guy we have at QB. I know old Rzayo will LOVE this pic (for his mancrush of course).

I'd also like to give a special shot-out to Jarsquall for teaching everyone how to post pics... I'm sure it will make this site alot more interesting (if thats possible)

CAMARILLO CATCHES SOME CASH

Posted by Mike Florio on November 19, 2008, 8:48 p.m.

Receiver Greg Camarillo, unlikely hero of the Dolphins’ only win in 2007 and even more unlikely member of the starting lineup, has been rewarded for his performance with a new contract.

Per Edgar Thompson of the Palm Beach Post, Camarillo has agreed to terms on a three-year, $6 million deal.

The arrangement will keep Camarillo in Miami through 2011. He would have been a restricted free agent after the season.

The Pats at it Again...

jwillis9 — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:30:40 -0000

I was just over on the Pats Puplit and found this little tidbit. The Pats worked out Jayson Foster recently. Yea its that same J.Foster that we picked up after the draft. Does anyone remember is he still on our practice squad? Not that it really matters just the Pats being the Pats, Im sure he'll be awesome there considering he was with us. Damn I hate the F&^@King C*&K S&$!%@Rs

Wildcat Usage each game and Result

jwillis9 — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 15:15:33 -0000

Hey guys I found this article on ESPN (I should be working) but found it cool b/c it shows us how many times the Cat was used each game and the results.

Dolphins touchdowns At a Glance
	Wildcat	Other
Sunday	2	1
This season	8	13

The Miami Dolphins roused their slumbering Wildcat on Sunday, scoring two touchdowns out of the exotic and entertaining formation in a 21-19 victory over the Seattle Seahawks.

ESPN's Stats & Information department has been tracking the Wildcat since it was unveiled in Week 3.

The Dolphins ran seven Wildcat plays for 82 yards, much of it coming on a 51-yard Ricky Williams touchdown dash. Ronnie Brown took one 16 yards for a score.

Miami's Wildcat Game-by-Game
Opp.	Uses	Yds	Avg	TD	W-L
NE	6	119	19.8	4	Won
SD	11	49	4.5	1	Won
Hou	8	84	10.5	1	Lost
Bal	5	4	0.8	0	Lost
Buf	7	34	4.9	0	Won
Den	4	-5	-1.3	0	Won
Sea	7	82	11.7	2	Won

The Wildcat is a modified single-wing formation in which the line is unbalanced with two tackles on one side. Brown usually takes a direct shotgun snap, with Williams lining up at wingback and quarterback Chad Pennington split out as a receiver.

Before Sunday, the Dolphins had failed to score a Wildcat touchdown three straight weeks.

They ran it five times for 4 yards against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 7, seven times for 34 yards against the Buffalo Bills in Week 8 and four times for minus-5 yards against the Denver Broncos in Week 8.

Lions still shopping ROY

OK guys as you know the trade deadline is at 4pm. As of right now 2:45 est nothing exciting has happened. But read the article expecially what Schefter says the Lions are actually looking for in return.

This is per PFT:

http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/10/14/lions-still-shopping-roy-williams/

I know Matty doesnt want full articles posted so I will just put the link. I dont see us making any moves even though we need help in 2 major areas (as everyone already knows) we will stay pat with what we got until the offseason.

need input on a trade....

jwillis9 — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 00:58:52 -0000

ok guys here is the proposed trade

me giving

1. chad penny, joe addai, lee evans

me getting

1. eli manning, fred taylor, chris henry

im not real sure what i should do. im leaning towards not taking it because i think that hopefully j.addai will finally have a good week. and the other part is that im giving up lee evans for c.henry. henry is a good reciever if he can stay on the field. eli will put up better numbers than chad (even though i love chad:)) im just worried that as soon as i trade addai he will break out.

what are your thoughts???? Thanks in Advance
