Daniel Thomas OUT for the year

[MikeO]

Ankle injury, his season is over

[mecadonzilla]

Perhaps this will allow Gillislee to be activated.  I'd like to see what he's got.

So, who's the short yardage back now? 

[Dave Gray]

So, who's the short yardage back now? 

All our backs are short yardage backs.

We don't have one.  Maybe they will bring back Jonas Gray

[MikeO]

Probably will see Thigpen get some carries I would guess

[EDGECRUSHER]

All our backs are short yardage backs.

Fantastic.

[EKnight]

So, who's the short yardage back now? 

Based in the last 3 weeks, I'd say home run threat Lamar Miller.  -EK

[suck for luck]

All our backs are short yardage backs.

That's gold Jerry!

[mecadonzilla]

All our backs are short yardage backs.

Yeah, I kinda backed up in to that one...not unlike our O-line into our RBs.

[Landshark]

Regardless of whoever is brought in, I think it's time to move on from this slug.

[masterfins]

Ankle injury, his season is over

Hopefully his career with the Dolphins is over as well.

[MikeO]

Palm Beach Post reporting that Marcus Thigpen will most likely be the back-up RB and not Gillslee. Not confirmed but what they are hearing and reporting

[EDGECRUSHER]

Why aren't our 2013 draft picks playing except for Sturgis and Jordan on occasion?

[Landshark]

Why aren't our 2013 draft picks playing except for Sturgis and Jordan on occasion?

Because either they flat out suck (which is on Ireland) or they haven't developed (which is on the coaches)

[MikeO]

Why aren't our 2013 draft picks playing except for Sturgis and Jordan on occasion?

Jordan we drafted injured and knew it would take him for him to get healthy
Taylor had a sports hernia that had him miss most of camp
Davis was playing well in camp, got hurt late and never caught up

Those 3 are injury related and with 2 of them we knew what we were getting in April sort of.

Dallas Thomas sucks. Dion Simms is blocking well at TE. Gillslee is small and was behind 2 players that were better than him on the depth chart.

I am not worried about Jordan and ya hope in a year from now Taylor and Davis are playing a lot of meaningful minutes. I mean Patterson can't be counted on to stay healthy so those 2 should be your #2 and #3 CB's going forward.  Sucks for this year and yes you want more...but injuries happen and some guys don't get healthy at a fast rate.
