One thing I really love about Jeff Halfley is he doesn’t like 7 on 7 drills. NFL is not played 7 on 7. It is 11 vs. 11. Via @ArmandoSalguero on X

What happened: Miami is devoting a significant share of camp to full 11-on-11 periods, allowing the offense and defense to work as complete units. Hafley favors that setup over 7-on-7 drills because NFL games are played with 11 players per side.

Why it matters: The approach gives both units simultaneous work on timing, chemistry and assignment learning. It also puts the full operation under evaluation during Hafley's first training camp as Miami's head coach.

What to watch: Miami's first public practice is scheduled for Aug. 2, providing the next look at how heavily Hafley uses full-team periods.
