Miami Dolphins In Depth

  • Live blog of Dolphins vs. Falcons (plus pregame info) here

    Guard Artis Hicks is out with a neck injury. John Jerry starts at right guard, as I reported yesterday. Kevin Burnett (back) is not playing so Gary Guyton starts for him. And as I previously read on this blog, Karlos Dansby (knee) also isn't playing while Austin Spitler takes his [...]

  • Dansby to miss second preseason game, eyes Sept. 9

    The Dolphins defense, particularly the starting unit, is expecting a major rebound from the first two preseason games. After those games, coach Joe Philbin made the point that the unit basically hasn't stopped anyone yet in the preseason.

    Middle linebacker is supposed to be a major cog in that unit. He's [...]

  • Tannehill doesn't have ticket buyers excited ... yet

    The Dolphins announced first-round rookie draft pick Ryan Tannehill had won the starting quarterback job on Monday. And the lines have been out the door and around the block at the Dolphins ticket office ever since.

    No. Not really.

    I'm told ticket sales have been steady but there has been no appreciable [...]

  • Is Vontae Davis on the trade block?

    The NFL is aflutter tonight because the Indianapolis Colts are working on a big trade and, of course, no one really knows the specifics but fans across the league are speculating it involves their team.

    Miami fans being no different, there is much speculation the Dolphins might be involved. And that [...]

  • Dolphins tight ends need to get better

    A football team is like a series of links fastened together as a chain. When one link is weak, it weakens the entire chain.

    Think of that when considering the Dolphins offense. And now tell me which is the weak link?

    Well, the wide receivers, right?

    It's not just me saying it. Coach Joe Philbin [...]

  • Eric Steinback retires: The good and bad

    For weeks we've discussed how the much-anticipated competition for the starting right guard spot between Artis Hicks and Eric Steinbach never materialized. Steinbach couldn't muster a performance worthy of giving him first-team repetitions and he certainly couldn't be asked to do that at a position the longtime left guard simply has never played.

    Well, Steinbach was so unhappy [...]

  • Hard Knocks episode 3 review right here

    A pretty uninspiring, unremarkable and somewhat uneventful Hard Knocks tonight, folks.

    Last week was stunning and brilliant for capturing the Chad Johnson meeting with Joe Philbin, for the insight of the David Garrard injury, for the drama of Mike Sherman practically going postal on underperforming players in that now memorable team meeting.

    This week? [...]

  • Salary cap, circumstances may force Garrard exit

    You already know what the Dolphins are planning to do with Ryan Tannehill so that's yesterday's news. But the question now becomes what the team will do with its remaining quarterbacks.

    Will the team keep all four -- Tannehill, David Garrard, Matt Moore and Pat Devlin -- or will someone have [...]

  • Philbin, Dolphins make the right call on Tannehill

    Ryan Tannehill is the Dolphins starting quarterback for the regular-season opener on Sept. 9, coach Joe Philbin announced this afternoon.

    And after the coach talked about it being a "close" call and saying it was made based on tape study and gut and discussions among, coaches Philbin did not take a [...]
