On Saturday, Dolphins receiver Brandon Marshall hosted a youth football camp. Before things got started, he made a bold prediction regarding his exploits among the grown-ups in 2010.
Per Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, Marshall said it’s “probably [going to be] the best year I’ve ever had.”
He also said that, despite hip surgery, he’ll be “ready to go full speed” when training camp opens.
And he continued to potentially agitate Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis by explaining that former teammate Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey remains the best cover man in the game. Marshall even took at crack at new Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie, whom Marshall faced twice per year when he was in Denver and Cromartie played for the Chargers.
Marshall said that Cromartie “has a knack for getting to the football. Very dangerous, but at the same time, beatable.”
By the way, the Jets and the Dolphins get together in Week Three. On Sunday night.
