The Miami Dolphins mini camps have begun the draft is behind us and the start of training camp just a few months away. General Manager Jeff Ireland has probably had his best draft class to date and this season will begin to reveal the success of his body of work. Although his work is not done because there will be several veteran wide receivers released who could be added to this roster to either push some of our younger players who need to step up or become one of the pieces this team needs to transition this team back to it’s winning tradition. One of those younger receivers is Clyde Gates who is hoping the fans will embrace his movement called “BIM” which means, Believe in Miami. Clyde clearly believes in Miami and he wants our passionate fans to get behind him and his teammates and Believe in Miami again. I believe this team will return to greatness and this once storied franchise will be one of the most respected again. It all begins right now with effort in the mini camps and the coaching later this summer in training camp. Go Dolphins…

  The Miami Dolphins with the eighth pick of the 2012 National Football League Draft select Ryan Tannehill from Texas A&M. I can’t say the pick surprised me because there was so much talk about the possibility of selecting Ryan Tannehill in the first round with the eighth pick. I personally liked Brandon Weeden who was chosen by the Cleveland Browns. The selection of Ryan Tannehill answers the question of why Matt Flynn was not a serious consideration and Ryan Tannehill was actually chosen to become a Miami Dolphin. I believe with the right receivers Matt Moore will be successful with this offense. There is no pressure on Ryan Tannehill to start but following in the footsteps of Bob Griese and Dan Marino both Hall of Fame quarterbacks selected by this organization with the number one pick sure has some big shoes to fill. Jeff Ireland just bought himself some job security for the next few years. Some fans won't like it but if things don't go well this season, they have bought themselves some time because Ryan Tannehill will not start in 2012. Go Dolphins…

  In recent NFL Owners meetings Stephen Ross talked about his team becoming more transparent. Also in a recent local sports article Ross was quoted saying, “I would just want to thank the really good fans. We’re going to be engaging with you a lot more the fans. I think you’re going to see a different organization. You saw what we did here when we visited newspapers. We’re going to be a lot more responsive and I think you’re going to see that in the future.” The communication lockout from the last regime has been squashed. Ross has opened the door of communication with our local sports media so we the fans can get a better understanding of some of the decisions being made without sacrifice to their ongoing strategy. The opportunity to speak with members of the Dolphins organization is one of the many benefits of becoming a Season Ticket Member. For more information on other season ticket benefits or to become a Season Ticket Member, please call 1-888-FINS-TIX. Good Luck Mr Ross and Go Dolphins...
