Opening Statement: “The way we approached this week, today was like a Wednesday for us. We had bonus time for us to meet and go through certain things, but today we handled like we would any ordinary Wednesday, which was primarily our base installation. Tomorrow we’ll (continue to) finish the week like we would on a normal week.”

What do you see from Brent Grimes?

“He is a tremendous athlete and the two things that stand out (are), his ability to elevate and jump. He is explosive and has outstanding hands on the ball. He is a player that I know studies a lot of film and when you watch him now this season you see all the things you saw on a yearly basis twice during the year versus Atlanta. He is a great talented corner and very explosive.”

I can recall a few acrobatic catches he made from Drew Brees as a member of the Falcons. Is Drew looking out for him?

“There are a handful that come to mind, so location in that direction is important. He will line up to our right which is kind of the same spot he did when he was playing with Atlanta.”

How hard is it to fix Miami’s tackling problem?

“I think it is something that we have done certain things in years past. It is always a challenge with the pads (limited padded practices allowed). Typically we go (with) one padded practice at the early part of the week like we did today. There are certain things fundamentally you are preaching, no different than what we are trying to do. I think it becomes a little more challenging toward the end of the season when you are kind of finished (with) your (allotted) padded practices and you hope you are falling back on the fundamentals that you installed in training camp.”
