Free-agent receivers calling Dolphins

Posted: Wednesday May 21, 2008 06:45AM ET

Aware of Miami's questionable depth at receiver, agents of several veteran free agents have called the Dolphins. But Miami hasn't pursued Chris Henry and Koren Robinson (who both have a history of legal problems), Eric Moulds and Tim Dwight, among others, their reps said. That leaves, for now, Tab Perry, David Kircus, Greg Camarillo and several undrafted receivers competing behind Ted Ginn Jr., Ernest Wilford and Derek Hagan.

How many times does Parcells have to say he doesn't want problem children before these people listen.

Report Offensive Comment

chris henry won't be able to make training camp. he's overdue for his monthly arrest

Report Offensive Comment

They should call up Keyshawn. He'll help tremendously in the blocking in the running game and converting third downs. He's also a big target for the red zone. If he got the right weight training and bulked up, he could play a few years at TE and be be one of the more athletic TE's in the game if he choose to make such a switch.

This could be the worst group of receivers in all of football. Ever! This is gonna make for an awful long season for whomever is quarterback. Good luck Phins......You'll be picking first again next year.

Since when did Parcells' become sooo concerned with a players character? He did coach keep LT didn't he?

Report Offensive Comment

Parcells knows what he is doing. Greg Camarillo will be decent Ginn is fast if they can find some one to through him the ball. Ernest WEilford will help these younger guys grow. I aint worried i am calling 6 wins this year and one hell of a running game.

Report Offensive Comment

How many coaches have the Fins had in the past 10 years? SIX, that's way too many. BTW: Is Parcells the coach there now? Parcells will wear his welcome out in 3 years then what?

Six win maybe a stretch DaytonPhin.......

He as Ricky Williams there getting along fine I think the weed is getting to him and wants more.

Ted Ginn Jr., Ernest Wilford and Derek Hagan.
Now that sounds like a killer receiving core... Too bad Booker left, he would have made that list even more insignificant.

I don't really like the Dolphins but I hope they do well next year.

Chris Henry in MIA... I'm sure he'll have plenty of "fun" there.

Report Offensive Comment

Now leading the Cowboys in receiving yards and convictions...Chris Henry!!!!
Momma is so proud....

Report Offensive Comment

Tim Dwight?? Good grief. None of those recievers are good fits for Miami.....Koren Robinson needs to go to Baltimore, ATL, HOU, or KC, Chris Henry needs to grow up, and Eric Moulds used to be one of the best recievers in the game, he looks like he lost a step or two.

Report Offensive Comment

Uhhhh note to self. When "you" have to contact a team to let them know your available it should be a wake up call.

Report Offensive Comment

Agreed that they don't need any "problem child" players, especially in light of the announcement that teams will be fined for player misbehavior. There are some good receivers in the CFL who would do anything to play in the NFL. A good # 2 or 3 could be signed cheap.

Report Offensive Comment

I don't think the lack of the a passing game will hurt a Parcells team. The hallmark of his teams have always bee good defense + strong running game + competent, mistake free QB'ing. They have all the pieces in place for a good running game with Jake Long and Ronnie Brown. The defense will take some work but I think with better coaching they can turn it around. Chad Henne has some promise, although his development will take some time. 6 wins this year would surprise me since I think the Patriots, Jets, and Bills are all significantly ahead of them in talent, but I wouldn't be surprised with 4-5 wins. This team will eventually turn it around, but don't expect it to happen immediately.

Report Offensive Comment

Oh, and as maligned as Ginn was, he should some flashes of talent. Hopefully he will continue getting better and justify the fact that an 8th overall pick was used on him. I think he can do it.

Any of those receivers would be lucky to be 3rd on Miami, and I don't think Wilford's very good (Ginn at least has potential). Moulds would be possible, if he regained any youth.
