DE Cameron Wake – Deep Sleeper

I was wondering if anyone has heard of Cameron Wake?

I live in Vancouver Canada, and he played the last 2 seasons for the BC Lions of the Canadian Football League. Now I know most of you are probably laughing, because of the skill level difference in both leagues….but Cameron Wake was signed in the off season by the Miami Dolphins, and he could very well go down as one of the most decorated CFL defensive players of all time.

In 2007  (his rookie year), he collected 16 sacks and 72 tackles and ended up winning both the Rookie of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year honors – first time in CFL history.

In 2008 Wake topped his mark with 23 sacks in the season and winning the Most Outstanding Player Award.

Again the adjustment from CFL to NFL is tough….only a few players have emerged….Warren Moon/Jeff Garcia/Doug Flutie to name a few. But Cameron Wake is entering the NFL on a team lead by the Big Tuna, with a team with little pass rush from the end.

Has anyone heard anything about him, as to how he's doing so far in Miami?

Cameron Wake is definitely a deep sleeper – who will cost you nothing – but one you should keep your eyes on.

I had my eyes on Wake since he was signed.  The sack totals he put up are hard to ignore.  Last I heard he was looking like an LB on obvious passing situations.  He was having trouble with the RT's.  Seems the Dolphins like the way Roth handles the run and then they signed Taylor.  He currently sits at #3 LOLB.

Thanks Tav – some good early insight!

You really do know your stuff :)

Keep me and the other FFX fans updated if you hear anything positive coming out of Miami with Cam Wake.

Tav,

What do we think of Cameron Wake now?? haa
What a week!…3 sacks!

I know he was playing a lot due to Joey Porter getting injuried.
But what do we think now?
Will this production continue once Joey returns?

Thanks!
