Dolphins offensive coordinator Mike Sherman said Thursday that in studying the Dolphins he saw some "hidden talent" on the roster and his job is to draw that out and make it show up.
This has to interest any Dolphins fan that remembers Yeremiah Bell came out of special teams duty to become a long-time starter at strong safety. It hearkens to the days when Wes Welker came off the waiver wire and worked his way into the starting lineup. It speaks to the possibilities that maybe, perhaps, hopefully, the Dolphins have a diamond here or there that simply got lost in the rough of 6-10.
Also, I'm a big Jeremy Lin fan so I believe it's possible for guys to suddenly perform when given the opportunity. I loved the Tim Tebow story so I think being buried deep down the depth chart isn't necessarily akin to being in a career grave.
But if the Dolphins do have "hidden talent" where is it? Who represents that talent?
Sherman hasn't told the players he's identified yet about his high hopes for them. So he wouldn't tell me when I asked if he'd name the players specifically.
But one can hazard an educated guess ...
If you're talking offensive line, which is Sherman's specialty considering he coached the position before, one has to begin with John Jerry.
Jerry was a coach favorite when he was at the Senior Bowl in 2010 and the Miami staff was coaching the South squad. Tony Sparano loved him. Then he got to Miami as a third-round draft pick and simply didn't live up to the hype.
He struggled learning the system, then got sick, then lost weight, then lost his job, then kind of disappeared. The start of 2011 training camp was no more impressive when Jerry started out on third team.
But during the season, Jerry worked at both right guard and right tackle, played in games at both positions, and frankly, didn't seem overmatched in the least. Was he perfect? Of course not. But maybe with some work, he can land one of the two wide open spots -- guard and tackle -- on the right side of the Miami offensive line.
Nate Garner might also be considered a hidden talent. He started games in 2009 and was expected to compete for a starting job in 2010 when he broke his foot. Season lost. Last season he returned to backup duty. He started one game at left guard and was fine. He filled in at left tackle one game and was over his head. He's not a left tackle but perhaps Sherman sees something there as a right guard possibility.
Clyde Gates. Remember the talk of him blowing the top off the defense with his great speed? Yeah, well, he caught two passes for 19 yards as a rookie. But perhaps there is a there there. Mark Duper and Mark Clayton didn't light it up as rookies, either. (No, I'm not saying Gates will be a Duper or Clayton so please don't read craziness into the point.)
I am saying, however, that Gates has learning and working to do. Perhaps with this coaching staff he can prosper and unveil that talent which was very well hidden in 2011.
Maybe Sherman considers Charles Clay and Daniel Thomas hidden talent because they were backups and didn't contribute to great or eye-popping degrees in 2011. I believe Dolphins fans are aware of the second-round running back and sixth-round TE/H-Back.
But hey, if Sherman doubles the production from each player, I'll gladly call them hidden talents all day if he wants. No worries.

Here is a compilation from some days in January and February 2012, and from window of commercial jet. I could’ve reached out and grabbed a sample. Notice how Delta jet flies right over us. Lastly, near the end, notice that there are 2 shadow lines. 2 shadow lines yet one plane, do you see that?

Miami Herald,
This chemtrail stuff is scary and very much concerns my family and all living things.
Please do a real cover story on this massive global environmental crime, "Chemtrails The Aerosol Spray Program"
Thanks

The chemtrail conspiracy theory holds that some trails left by aircraft are actually chemical or biological agents deliberately sprayed at high altitudes for purposes undisclosed to the general public in clandestine programs directed by government officials.[1] This theory is not accepted by the scientific community, which states that they are just normal contrails, and that there is no scientific evidence supporting the chemtrail theory.
As a result of the popularity of the conspiracy theory, official agencies have received thousands of complaints from people who have demanded an explanation.[1][2] The existence of chemtrails has been repeatedly denied by scientists around the world, who say the trails are normal contrails
Posted by: BFD | February 18, 2012 at 09:50 AM
Idiots and fearful ones.
If there was any truth to the chemtrails,they would be doing them at night when they would not be visible.
If there was any truth to it, the very perpetrators would be victims to it as well.
I'd worry more about the water.
Posted by: BFD | February 18, 2012 at 09:54 AM
Contrails ( /ˈkɒntreɪlz/; short for "condensation trails") or vapour trails are artificial clouds that are the visible trails of condensed water vapour made by the exhaust of aircraft engines. As the hot exhaust gases cool in the surrounding air they may precipitate a cloud of microscopic water droplets or, if the air is cold enough, tiny ice crystals.[1]
Depending on atmospheric conditions, contrails may be visible for only a few seconds or minutes, or may persist for many hours, which may affect climate.[2]
Contrails tend to last longer if there is higher moisture in the atmosphere and associated higher level clouds such as cirrus, cirrostratus and cirrocumulus already present before the plane flies through.
Posted by: BFD | February 18, 2012 at 09:56 AM
Conspiracy theorists are just as gullible as the sheeple.
Posted by: BFD | February 18, 2012 at 09:57 AM
I don't see any problem with the explanation that condensation trails act differently at different altitudes under different environmental conditions.
If the atmosphere is at near saturation level it makes sense that the contrail would last longer than it would if the air were dry.
NASA did do a study on how contrails affect weather patterns which I could see as a concern when you consider that what these planes are doing is actually creating a cloud in the sky. There are thousands of jets in the air at any point in time and it seems logical that the condensation being formed would have some kind of effect on weather patterns. As for the chemtrail claim where is the proof from anyone that shows any concentration of chemicals in the contrail that would be harmful to anyone? Do you have a link.

But, where is the proof. Why isn't anyone out there collecting samples on the "chemtrails" and testing them to prove the chemical contents and that chemtrails really exist? Can you provide that information? Because we would like to find these people and make them disappear. Oops. I spilled the beans.

If you are a concerned citizen as you state why don't you gather up a team of concerned citizens and find how to gather some scientific data on these "chemtrails" so you can prove their existence rather than saying they exist and having no proof.
Everyone, including the scientific community, has refuted their existence. You need solid proof. Otherwise, your just another loon conspiracy theorist.

Aerosol Crimes 1st Edition
This documentary produced by chemtrail researcher Clifford Carnicom is a must see and an excellent research tool. Five plus years into the operations has provided ample evidence in this 90min DVD that covers many topics. Over the years aerosol/chemtrail research has provided some leads but even more questions as to who and why the spraying occurs. It is clear jets are deliberately spraying the sky's and it will not stop until enough people are aware and willing to stand up for the operations exposure and termination.

One mads trash is another mans treasure. When I watched Jerry this past yr, I saw speed, toughness, and a willing to hit people. I was wondering what Sparano was seeing in Jerry that I wasnt. Jerry filled in at RG and then at LT and again I thought Jerry did a good job, enough so that Id like to see him start at RG, or RT. I think hes got the stones.

Clifford Carnicom
Clifford Carnicom, professional computer analyst and former employee for the Defense Dept. , has been doing independent research on the aerosols that have been dumped from the skies for more than a decade. If you care about the environment, and if you care about your health, this is critically important information. Cliff also does a review of a recent report issued by the Center for Disease Control (not prevention) on the medical condition that has been called Morgellons.

Posted by: Gina Delvin | February 18, 2012 at 10:52 AM
All those crakking on Matt Moore should probably go back and check the stats for this yr alone. Moore, if given the chance in camp would have taken Hennes job. But Sparano being "head up the tub" head coach wouldnt let Moore compett. Moore took over in mid season, not knowing the offense, did a great job. The right side of Dolphin OL was terrible at least and dangerous at best. Henne was injured because of this OL and Moore was concussed because of this OL. A QB is only as good as his OL permits. I dont mention that idiot at WR,,,,BM. Maybe some of yous, should rail on the OL.

It's all simple physics. If there were anything more to it there would be no way to keep it secret. There are far too many scientists world wide and no way to keep them all quiet.

Golly, I come to this blog to read intelligent conversation on the Dolphins and I have to go through a bunch of conspiracy theorists on Chem trails, and people who have difficulty expressing themselves so they resort to filth. I hope this is not an indication of the caliber of people who are Fin fans. I find that a little scary as I am a Fin fan. Would really appreciate posts that address the articles cerebrally. For those who can't post without filth that means using your head for more than something to put your ball cap on backwards.
