TheKillerNacho Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 https://www.miamidolphins.com/team/depth-chart Found this interesting. After spending most of the preseason in a 4-2-5 alignment, the official week 1 depth chart is listed in a 3-4 scheme: I assume we will still be going with five DBs most of the time to get Minkah out there on nearly every play. This makes the recent transactions of ditching Nate Orchard and Vincent Taylor make more sense, as John Jenkins is definitely more of a fit for a 3-4 scheme.

I love how Jenkins cleared waivers and stepped off the plane right onto the 1st team. Dude confused me because when I looked him up after the Giants cut him, I saw the Knicks also waived a guy named John Jenkins awhile back. Was he a two-sport player in New York? Ha. Flores is quite good at disinformation. Never let your opponents know who is really playing where... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't necessarily say that a guy who has been here less than a week and couldn't even make the Giants roster being immediately plugged as a starter is a good sign, but experience at the position is good. I'm most excited to see how some or our high-upside question-marks play: Wilkins, Eguavon, and Charles Harris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're all young guys but I'd have thought you'd at least know Charles Harris as a 1st round pick and Raekwon McMillain as a 2nd. Eguavoen is a CFL standout who I'm kinda excited to watch. Jerome Baker was a 3rd round pick last year, and played well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High upside in that he was initially a 1st-round pick, who is now making his first appearance as a full-time starter under a new coaching staff. If there's any chance to salvage his career, it's now or never. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
