TheRealMcCoy Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Derek Barnett is likely starting at LDE in place of Brandon Graham (got hurt in the joint practices). I wanted to see him against Tunsil, because my questions revolve around him beating talented tackles that are better athletes. Is Ja'Wuan a solid test? I know he's not athletic and struggled last year, especially early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preseason game 3 man, at minimum I have to think they go the first half. with the way the offseason has unfolded... I wouldn't be surprised to see gase run them off the field early if he feels like they've got what he was looking for in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think maybe some new-er starters (Jesse Davis, Mike Hull, TJ McDonald, etc) will stay in longer to get some quality reps. But guys like Pouncey, Cutler, Ajayi? Doubt they play past a half, and I could see them being pulled sometime in the 2nd quarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard gase doesn't really want him to play so I'm guessing about 2 drives for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutler might stay in a little longer. Pure guess though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphinmeister Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 For me Pouncey is either ready to play or not, 14 more days is not going to make or break him at this point. It is time to see what he can do if he breaks down it gives Miami time to get someone else in before the start of the regular season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolphinmeister Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I liked what I saw from Cutler again, I am not saying he is going to be great but I am really convinced that there is no drop off with him instead of Tannehill. They maybe have different strengths and weaknesses but I am really liking what I am seeing as long as the O-line can stay healthy. This team still has a lot of work to do before the opening game bit the potential is there. I am thinking that Parker starts stealing some of Landrys thunder this year and if Stills and Parker start stretching he field on a regular basis that could really start opening up the run game for the J-train.
