The Giants will sign this guy & some how, some way, they will turn this guy into a beast OLB or FS. Just watch.

The Dolphins have to do something to generate some interest.

Too bad… The Dolphins already said” No Thank You” I wish the Man good luck, but I imagine without College and real competition for years, he doesn’t have it. Ironically it is now 9:45pm and it is funny to read how wrong Florio and all you retarted Fans and Dolphin Haters are. Yes, the Kid will tryout for the Seahawks, but only because the USC Coach is there. No, he didn’t choose the Seahawks over the Fins or the Fins let him get away either. Plain and simple, he does not have whatt it takes to make an NFL Roster, just like the Dolphinsvdid not see Star QB in Matt Flynn. He will not be a a Bust, but will never be a high tier Starter either. He is the same as Matt Moore, good competent, but not great and certainly not worth his adking price. Go ahead and hate on the Phins, but thry are making great personnel and financial moves that will help their future.

“The newest subjects of HBO’s Hard Knocks needs compelling story lines. And they don’t have many (or, arguably, any).”

They have plenty… including this storyline already.

Google Jimmy Wilson.

What?!? He just got released from prison. Seems like he’d be a good fit for the Lions.

Really? Because you seem downright obsessed with them.

Miami isn’t the type of organization to offer a guy like Banks a contract for simply a storyline.

Second chances can be great opportunities for both sides.

He’ll immediately be a member of the Dolphins family whether he is a good player or not.

Miami was a fine choice for the show. Quit with the protest of any Hard Knocks that doesn’t feature a team that has, or had, Tebow.

The Dolphins could cure cancer and invent an alternative fuel and they’d catch sh*t for it. *Eye roll

——————————–

That’s because the cure wouldn’t take effect until after the patient was already dead, and they’d end up spilling all the alternative fuel into the ocean.

Why would he sign with the Dolphins? Hasn’t he already been through enough?

Shocking the jets didn’t pick him up, oh wait, he was exonerated……….

No compelling story lines, gimme a break…….. What did the jets, bengals have ? Is it criminals you want ? Really ? Miami has a new coaching staff, they’re even changes schemes on both sides of the ball. The front office was protested against after missing out on harbaugh, fisher, manning, flynn, etc…… they drafted the guy who was pretty much the talk of the draft, and its assumed he’s not even ready for the NFL…. Reggie Bush is one of the most popular players in the league….. They have a qb competition, battles at WR and Safety…. There’s Les Brown who was a scrawny accountant last year but transformed into a beast in hopes of making it in the NFL. We have Jimmy Wilson, who actually did kill someone, making a name for himself in the NFL. You have a lot to learn.

It was actually Rick Reilly who pointed this out first, but tough for this site to give him credit since he works for your arch enemy ESPN.

actually 4 teams are looking at him but the seahawks were first to call him and set up a workout. pete was the guy that recruited him out of high school before he was wrongly accused…i hope someone picks him up so he can rebuild his career. good luck to him

If he makes a team and does decent I predict an honorary ESPY award in 2013

Dolphins are completely bland. Ross and Philbin are about as dynamic as the st0ne heads on Easter Island, and there is a facial resemblance there as well. Tannehill has the charisma of a 57 year old chartered accountant who relaxes playing with Civil War figures in his basement.

Or, maybe he’ll visit Seattle and Miami, then when he signs with Seattle, Miami fans can claim he wasn’t that good and they didn’t want him anyway….for the second time this offseason.

Think Florio needs to look up Jimmy Wilson.

By: 72dolphinsfan

72dolphinsfan — Wed, 30 May 2012 19:35:17 +0000

So we need to sign this guy to have a storyline? What about our new coach, new QB, Basketball player-turned accountant-turned TE prospect storylines?

I get that we haven’t done anythin since Marino retired, but why is the national media piling on the Dolphins. Its not like the Jags, Chiefs, Bengals were “marquee” franchises on Hard Knocks.

The Dolphins could cure cancer and invent an alternative fuel and they’d catch sh*t for it. *Eye roll

Dammit….Now I feel like I gotta root against him.

Also, can he play Wide Receiver?

This story would be a whole lot more interesting if it were Briana Banks.

Play for the Dolphins?

Hasn’t this man suffered enough?

that’s great…and if he does well and makes the team…Hollywood will give him a call for a movie
