One player that has consistently earned high praise from the Miami Dolphins coaching staff, media pundits and fan base has been rookie wide receiver Brian Hartline. The fourth-round draft pick from Ohio State has made an eye-catching play in virtually every training camp practice session. Unfortunately, Hartline is competing with three established youngsters - Ted Ginn, Greg Camarillo, and Davone Bess - for legitimate playing time.

So the question is, will Brian Hartline continue to shine during the four upcoming preseason games and earn himself some significant repetitions during the regular season?

Personally, I'm happy either way, because Hartline represents a fourth youthful option for Miami's quarterback of the future, Chad Henne. If these young guys continue to develop, Miami could field one of the NFL's most formidable passing attacks in 2011 and beyond.

P.S. It's worth noting that a) Chad Pennington is still relatively young and could continue to start for many years b) Pat White could potentially supplant Henne as "quarterback of the future."
