Miami Dolphins Camp Disappointments, LB Battle

Yeah Omar compared him to Jelani Jenkins - a step slow to react, etc.

I was thinking but wait, Jenkins was a four year veteran and we're looking at a rookie in his first mini-camp, wouldn't you expect him to be playing MUCH worse than the veteran? If he's on par, shouldn't we expect development and improvement, even this year after a full training camp and preseason games?

I'm OK with the Thomas signing, and I'm sure he will add a dimension to this offense. I'm not thrilled, but okay with it.

Gase isn't going to show all his cards in an open practice, so concerns about chemistry, the routes he ran, etc are largely unfounded IMO. The problem for us is that it's a virtual certainty he will be injured this season, his track record is just too consistent in that regard. I may be in the minority, but I think Gray will do fine in that role playing alongside Fasano in the two TE sets. There's room for him to grow, and it's clear Gase likes him so he will find a way to use him once Thomas ultimately goes down.
