  Dolphins | Re-sign Julius Pruitt     Tue Jul 30, 05:30 PM

The Miami Dolphins re-signed WR Julius Pruitt Tuesday, July 30. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Pruitt has been with the Dolphins for the last three years but has failed to record a catch in the regular season. He'll be a camp body until WR Rishard Matthews (undisclosed) returns to practice.

  Dolphins | Several competing for No. 5 WR job    Thu Aug 16, 08:55 PM

Miami Dolphins WRs Julius Pruitt, Marlon Moore, Clyde Gates and Chris Hogan are competing for the No. 5 wide receiver during training camp. Pruitt appears to be the leading contender for the roster spot at this point.

Footballguys view: Gates has the best raw talent because of his speed, but he is struggling in camp. Look for him to get picked up by another team if the Dolphins don't keep him.

  Dolphins | Four WRs expected to compete for two spots    Mon Apr 2, 03:09 PM

Miami Dolphins WRs Clyde Gates, Julius Pruitt, Roberto Wallace and Marlon Moore are expected to compete for two roster spots during training camp.

Footballguys view: Gates has to be a favorite for one with his speed and raw prospect status coming out of college last year. The team should also be in the market for wide receivers in the draft, both early and late.

  Dolphins | Seven grabbed for practice squad    Sun Sep 4, 10:05 PM

The Miami Dolphins signed DB Vincent Agnew, TE Brett Brackett, OG Garrett Chisolm, QB Pat Devlin, RB Nic Grigsby, OT D.J. Jones and WR Julius Pruitt to the practice squad Sunday, Sept. 4.

Footballguys view: Devlin doesn't have a strong arm, but is a smart QB who showed the Dolphins enough to stick around on the Practice Squad. Grigsby is not a creative runner but he shows good initial burst and decent speed in a straight line. He is also a natural receiver out of the backfield.

Jones, OT Matt Kopa, WR Phillip Livas, WR John Matthews, CB Nate Ness, LB David Nixon, QB Kevin O'Connell, WR Julius Pruitt, TE Mickey Shuler and LB Quinton Spears Saturday, Sept. 3.

Footballguys view: Devlin was considered an interesting QB prospect at one point, at least in part because he came from Joe Flacco's Delaware Blue Hens.

  Dolphins | Five WRs could compete for one roster spot    Wed May 4, 04:12 PM

Miami Dolphins WRs Marlon Moore, Patrick Carter, Roberto Wallace, Julius Pruitt and Brooks Foster could compete for the final receiver spot on the roster during training camp.

Footballguys view: The Dolphins added speedy rookie Edmond Gates from Abilene Christian in the fourth-round of the 2011 NFL Draft which will push these other WRs down the depth chart.

  Dolphins | Team has speedy receivers already on roster    Tue Mar 29, 11:23 PM

Miami Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano singled out WRs Brian Hartline and Marlon Moore as speedy receivers already on the team's roster, reports Ben Volin, of the Palm Beach Post. 'Brian (Hartline) can run,' Sparano said. 'I don't know that people would classify Brian as a speed guy, but I do. (Moore) might be the fastest guy that we have.' WR Julius Pruitt, mostly a practice squad guy in 2010, also has elite speed.

Footballguys view: Moore's mention makes him a decent pickup in very deep dynasty leagues, but chances are the big play threat the Dolphins need at WR isn't on the roster.

  Dolphins | Patrick Turner cut    Sat Sep 4, 10:29 AM

The Miami Dolphins have cut WR Patrick Turner, reports The Miami Herald's Jeff Darlington, according to a source. The Dolphins depth chart at wide receiver is now WRs Brandon Marshall, Brian Hartline, Davone Bess, Roberto Wallace and Marlon Moore with WR Julius Pruitt likely on the practice squad.

Footballguys view: Turner flashed something last spring and summer, but hasn't been able to sustain it. A receiver with his size and athletic ability should get picked up somewhere.

  Dolphins | Six players signed to futures contract    Thu Jan 7, 11:52 AM

Omar Kelly, of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, reports the Miami Dolphins have signed SS Nate Ness, TE John Nalbone, WR Julius Pruitt, WR Taurus Johnson, OG Ray Feinga and RB Tristan Davis to futures contracts. The contracts are two-year deals but the financial terms were not disclosed. All six players finished the season on the Dolphins' practice squad.

Footballguys view: The player to watch here is Taurus Johnson, the 2009 rookie from USF. We saw Johnson down at the Shrine Game in Houston back in January of '09 and came away impressed with his frame and ability to come back to the football. He's likely not a big play threat, but a solid possession wide receiver with the strength to break arm tackles and pick up yards after the catch.
