Dolphins Training camp round up

[Niedermaier]

Hello again, been a while. He is a collection of posts and news articles regarding what has been going on with these Phins in training camp, the position battles and other side notes. I will start adding my personal observations as I attend more training camps. So far, the safety battle is amazing. Go Jones and Wilson!

-All your Chad Johnson and WR's news in one place:

CJ is "back to old form". Not sure which form that is though.

The wide receiver battle exists, but who is any good? The second year rookies? The old superstars, or the other teams leftovers?

Will we ever address the Guard position?

Good stuff. With how the receivers are this year though I'm not sure I even want Tannehill starting. Looks like Gates, the rookies and Hartline are all duds.

Very cool of you to post all of those links, Niedermaier! Thanks for your efforts. I've read many/most of these already, but I also missed a few. Thanks again!

As much as i liked and wanted the tannehill pick there is a big part of me who doesnt want him to start the season as a starter. The good news though is Omar kelly is saying Martin looks real good at RT and if stienbach plays likee he used to we could have a pretty good line..
