A little...they went to Ricky in the 2nd series I believe. Not much running room though for Brown during his series.

Really - I am surprised. I thought they'd keep Ronnie shelved for another week so as not to risk re-injury.
Maybe just a play or two for him?

I don't see either Graham or Dunn's names in the box score. Did they both sit? Does anyone know why?

This is why you can't go on preseason. I didn't see Graham or Dunn tonight and the fact of the matter is they are both on the team and Gruden will probably play them more next week and week 3, but probably in week 4 of the preseaosn you will see Bennett get like 20 carries for 88 yds, everyone thinks he might be the #2 RB in Tampa and all of the sudden he ends up on the cut list. If Bennett was really important to the Bucs, do you think he would be getting so much action in game 1 of the preseason? And btw, I didn't think Bennett looked all that good tonight when I was watching the game, not sure what he did that was so special but he has been in the league a long time now, we all know what his limits are.
I doubt very much Bennett gets cut. He played well last year in spot duty, has had a solid camp playing with the #1 unit at times, and Gruden likes him. I'm not saying Bennett > Graham, but with Bennett, Dunn, and possibly Caddy by mid-season I wouldn't want to be relying on Graham to win me a championship this year.

Same here. The Bucs are going to go in with Graham, Dunn and him. If Caddy gets healthy and joins the mix, all the better. I can see the Bucs carrying 4 RB's on their roster.

No mention of Clayton yet....
He looked leaner, quicker, and healthy.
BUT...he dropped his first pass...right in his hands...could have gone for 20 yards.
In his defense, he did come back with a catch or two in traffic. And the coaching staff has been talking positively about him all camp. But I can't believe Gruden will put up with the drops much longer.
Could be an opp for Stovall or Bryant.

Ricky Williams looked pretty good, like his old self, while Ronnie Brown didn't do much on his few carries. So far no reason to think Ricky won't be getting a good chunk of the carries this year. Wilford dropped a couple of passes and Hagan and Ginn were pretty quiet. Both Beck and Henne showed flashes of quality and neither made any big mistakes. The most impressive Dolphin last night was a rookie kicker, Dan Carpenter. He made two FG's over 40 yards and his kickoffs were strong.
