Miami Dolphins Release SURPRISE Depth Chart Ahead Of NFL Preseason Week 1 vs. Falcons

[Music] we had a surprise depth chart the Falcons and dolphins will play in NFL preseason week one this Friday and as always teams drop a depth chart prior to each game and I kind of want to talk about the first one for the Dolphins because it was a little surprising and anytime we get to see a depth chart from the fins it at least pequs my interest and it should as well for you before we get into that chart and my biggest takeaways from it make sure you are subscribed to the channel because we are going to be live for every game that the Miami Dolphins play this season but we will specifically be live for this one on Friday make sure you subscribe and join us we're going to be live an hour before the game it's a 700 p.m. eastern Time game so 600 p.m. eastern Time is when we'll be live make sure you subscribe and join us because we have daily coverage of the Dolphins and we'll be live for every single game all right the first takeaway from the initial depth chart from the Miami Dolphins is the offensive line Shuffle we know there's been some injuries and some question marks on who's going to start with this group but the first Dolphins depth chart kind of gave us a little bit of a clue no surprise at left tackle Center or right tackle Austin Jackson is always going to be the starting right tackle Aaron Brewer was always going to be the starting center and Tron Armstead is always going to be the left tackle but with no Isaiah win as he is still on the pup list Robert Jones who we've thought is going to be the starting Right Guard actually is listed as the starting left guard which means backup center Liam mikenberg is actually listed as the starting Right Guard and this is a little bit intriguing to me because we've often talked about the Battle for the starting Right Guard spot when Isaiah wins healthy he was going to be between Lester cotton Liam mikenberg Jack Driscoll and Robert Jones but to see Liam ikenberg technically get that nod at Right Guard when Robert Jones is over at left guard kind of showcases to me that he might be in the driver's seat to be that second guy and maybe he's not the driver seat to be the starting Right Guard I would still probably lean Robert Jones since we've seen him get left guard reps and be the Isaiah win replacement for now if you will but with Jack Driscoll that's the crazy thing to me I've thought that he could be the person who comes out and emerges from the pack to be your starting Right Guard but the fact that he is behind Liam mikenberg as the starting Right Guard right now at this portion in Camp tells me a lot and we know that he has struggled a little bit he's gotten reps at Center he's gotten reps at Right Guard he just has not performed to what I expected him to do in the first two weeks of Camp which has kind of put him a little bit behind here on the depth chart but outside of the Interior there was no crazy thing that I wanted to talk about but I did want to address the interior offensive line because Robert Jones is at left guard Liam mikenberg is at Right Guard Jack Driscoll there but then Lester cotton who's probably going to be the person who is the odd man out on the roster bubble was listed as the third Right Guard let talk about the edge lineup now because it's interesting obviously the dep CHS not include anybody on the pup list or on the IR because they technically aren't able to but it was intriguing to see how they far no surprise Emanuel agba is your number one Edge who was signed right after the Sha Barrett retirement that came out a couple weeks ago Quinton Bell though has been an absolute Revelation for the Miami Dolphins as listed as that opposite starting Edge to Emanuel agba chop Robinson and mamar the two rookies are listed right behind agba in that edge one department and then you see brown and Grayson Murphy the udfa listed behind Quinton Bell but the part that we do need to talk about is the fact that Bell is listed as the starting Edge and outside linebacker opposite to emanu agba over chop Robinson and maybe it's a rookie thing maybe it's not but Bell has been absolutely spect acular through this point at Camp No One thought he even was going to have a shot to make this roster he's been the second or third best edge with Jaylen Phillips and Bradley chub out probably slightly ahead of chop Robinson if we're going to be honest in terms of production and his ability to flash against the Falcons flash against his own teammates like Quinton Bell has been really really good and I've honestly just been overall very impressed with the dolphins Edge group to this point whenever you lose guys like Bradley chub and Jaylen Phillips who are probably both top 15 at the position or at least top 20 like you expect your pass rush to be lacking in training camp against your own guys and against the other team but that's not been the case they've been able to get after the quarterback between agba chop and um oh my Quinn Bell completely spaced there for some reason they have been able to get pressure at the quarterback and when you start to integrate Jaylen Phillips and Bradley chub back into this rotation this going to be an extremely deep group and I expect it to be one of the best pass rushes in all of football I think it's kind of a lock almost at this point it would take Quinton Bell really really to drop off in his production and the rest of Camp to not make the team that's just how good he has been but let me know predict it for me will cron bell end up being on the final 53 man roster I don't see a way he's not so I'm typing my wise but type your wise or ends down below let's talk about running back Jaylen right now cuz he's kind of buried on this depth chart and it's a little bit of a shock to me I don't know if it's because he's a rookie I don't know the exact reason but when you look at how the Dolphins listed things early on no surprise that you have Rahe moer and Devon Anan is your top two backs but then Jeff Wilson was listed as rb3 Chris Brooks as rb4 was Selvin ammed listed as rb5 and Jaylen Wright as rb6 like I am very very surprised that the fourth round pick the rookie out of Tennessee is listed as the last running back on this dep chart and no this is not me saying that Jaylen Wright is not going to make this team because he's the last listed running back on the dep chart it's not what I'm saying whatsoever but it is intriguing to me that maybe the Dolphins don't feel as he is ready quite yet to have the role that many of us expected he would have does that open the door for Jeff Wilson to make this team that we didn't expect that to be the case I'm not so sure it's very early there's still two preseason games still a damn near month to go until September 8th when this season gets underway against the Jacksonville Jaguars so I'm not going to try to overreact just yet but it is something that I am definitely taking away from the first dep chart that the Dolphins released I mentioned that the Dolphins are about a month away from the season getting under way well if you want to catch the fs in person this year there's no other way to do

how it was listed in the first depth chart by the Miami Dolphins Smite was listed as the number one guy and kind of an a stunning move if you're asking me Janu Smith is your tight end too which I did not see coming because I think he's clearly been the best tight end for this Dolphins team so far in Camp Julian Hill listed as tight end three my sweet prince jod forson Jr at tight end four the standout Tanner Connor who has had a really good camp thus far at tight end five and then heed Ruchi the udfa out of Wisconsin that last guy in this group but the main takeaway that I have to discuss here is the fact that Janu Smith isn't tight end one and I know Durham Smite has been the tight end one last season he was the tight end two two years ago with Mike aaki and he's the more experienced tight end on this group but I just don't see a way that John Smith isn't tight end one on this team he has the most experience the most production in his career he's one of the best yards after the catch tight end in the NFL I think he actually is the best one that's my personal opinion there are some stats that back that up as well and I know there's going to be a lot made out of jod forson being the fourth guy Julian Hill being the third guy but I'm really just focused on Smite being ahead of Jan smack but like I have mentioned a couple times we are very early in the training camp process things will absolutely change but Smite being listed at tight end one might make you think there's going to be a good chance that he is on this roster when we get to cut down day in late August last takeaway we got to mention the wide receiver battle here and there's been so many injuries to this position group already Odo Beckham Jr on the pup list uh Taj Washington placed on IR Eric auk Kama banged up as well but when you looked at the first release of the depth chart there's some intriguing things we have to talk about no surprise at the top with Hill and Wadd Barrios at number three due to the fact well obj isn't there river ccraft lifted as wide receiver 4 which makes a lot of sense due to the fact that he's been an extremely good productive player in the first two weeks of Camp newly signed Willie sne wide receiver five how about that Schwarz 6 brillan Sanders Seven ezuka 8 puts him really behind the eightball but then this is the player we got to talk about my guy Malik Washington second round or sixth round pick out of Virginia who I have been very bullish on saying that he's going to have a role for the Dolphins this year in the slot with his shiftiness and his ability to just catch everything over the middle of the field like I said with another player in Jaylen R I don't know if it's the rookie thing I don't know what it is if they put rookies a little bit lower than they do usually but either way Malik Washington being the eighth wide receiver mentioned like what are we doing here he is going to be good I hope to I hope a lot of things here but I think that he is a lot higher on the depth chart than they're actually letting on and I expect to see him ball out over the next couple weeks if these preseason games but that's a little bit of a shock to me last name I did want to mention we talked about a little bit but River Craycraft has had such an excellent Camp over the first two weeks that having him as wide receiver four with injuries to obj makes a ton of sense right so normally obj would be three Craycraft would be five baros four which is fine by me if Malik Washington is wide receiver six because I don't think there's any way in hell that it would be a smart move to cut Malik Washington because another team would scoop him up that's definitely my thoughts there but CR craft has had a really good camp so it doesn't shock me to see him in the top four with obj currently on the pup list I know we didn't show every single position group but we only showed the top five in terms of shocking to me like there's not that big of a surprise at inside linebacker cornerback safety quarterback so to me I only want to talk about the five groups that really stood out to me so what was your one word reaction to the Dolphins dep sh or at least the pieces that we showed you on today's video my one word early I've kind of said that a couple times throughout this video but that's kind of how I'm viewing this right there's just so much time until now in the final cutdown day there's going to be three preseason games more training camp practices where there's going to be a lot of time for players either climb up the depth chart or fall down the depth chart so I would expect Malik Washington Jaylen Wright who we talked about being a little too low as two rookies that I thought could really have an impact on this team well there's a lot of time for them to make up on that ground and it wouldn't Shock Me a week and we're maybe doing another Dolphins depth chart video that Malik Washington and Jaylen Wright are much higher on this list so that's my one word a little early make sure you are subscribed to the channel because we are going to have the best coverage here on YouTube in my opinion when it comes to the
