Predict the inactive players for week one at Miami

[Brady6]

These are the players I have taking a seat this Sunday:

1. Brandon Bolden (DNPCD)
2. Bryan Stork (DNPCD)
3. Cameron Fleming (DNPCD)
4. Michael Buchanan (INJ)
5. Chris Jones (INJ)
6. Don Jones (DNPCD)
7. Darius Fleming (DNPCD)

For those that may be wondering, 'DNPCD' means 'Did Not Play - Coach's Decision'. It's also sometimes referred to as a 'healthy scratch' (i.e., healthy but scratched from lineup) - as opposed to a player being inactive for a game due to an injury.

Bolden has ST value : which means I see him as active for Miami.

 

[DaBruinz]

Bolden's ST value is minimal and is replaced easily.

 

[farn]

I agree with what you are saying : but (1) BB uses him on ST (2) how often has Bolden been inactive, except for the suspension ?

I don't expect to have our Fleming to be inactive. Our starting DE/OLB's are Ninkovich, Jones, Mayo, Collins and Hightower. We have to have a backup LB. Relying on pass-rusher Buchanan and rookie Moore is not enough IMHO.

I agree either Bolden or White are inactive. We won't have 4 RBs and Develin all active.

I could see Hooman as inactive due to Tim Wright and Develin, but then I would have Fleming or Stork active instead.

 

[mgteich]

I prefer to have Bolden active instead of White.

I expect a WR or TE to be inactive, with LB Fleming active. We don't need to have 8 WR/TE's active, especially since one of our OT's can be the blocking TE if needed.

Thompkins is the wild card for me he could be the starter or an inactive. I cannot think of a WR that would be inactive other than him.

 

[Brady6]

I suppose you could make Hooman inactive and use Develin.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

This is much harder to predict this year w/o Bequette on the 53

As was pointed out by another poster in another thread, the choice is between Thompkins and Hooman.

 

[BlueThunder]

Mayo
Collins
Wilfork
Ridley
Revis
McCourtey
Brady


and Pats would still win .... maybe ....

 

[jah]

I have:

Buchanan
Chr. Jones
C. Fleming
Stork
D. Jones
Wilson
Ryan (surprise)

I think Butler has outplayed Ryan at CB and overtaken him on the depth chart, and Arrington was a better safety than Ryan as well. However, I don't actually think Ryan will be inactive because I'd imagine at least one of Hoomanawanui or Siliga to be inactive as well. I'm just not going to predict injury-related things because any guess I make is completely uneducated.

 

[Bobs My Uncle]

My guesses:

C Jones
M Buchanan
P Chung
D Jones
C Fleming
J White
Z Moore (if Siliga is ready to go)

 

[ralmat55]

I'm predicting a couple of surprises. Here goes:

C. Jones
Buchanon
C. Fleming
Stork (when you dress only 7 OL, everyone dressed had better be ready to play)
Here are the surprises:
D. Harmon- Chung starts and Wilson, Ebner and Jones offer more on ST
D. Amendola- with Gronkowski playing, only 3 WRs will be in on passing downs
S. Ridley- Vereen will be the feature back. White is his backup, and Bolden is a core ST.
