The Facts:
Miller, who almost assuredly will replace Reggie Bush as Miami’s starter, began spending a lot of time around Frank Gore a couple of months ago, at the suggestion of their agent, Drew Rosenhaus. Pete Bommarito, who runs the highly-regarded Bommarito Performance Systems, where Gore, Miller and many other NFL players train during offseason mornings, said Gore helped show Miller “how to take care of his body, what to do beyond what is required.” Gore has noticed another change since they became workout buddies: “His footwork got a lot better."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Gore said of the elite University of Miami backs of the past 20 years – Edgerrin James, himself, Clinton Portis, Willis McGahee, Miller – “Lamar is probably the fastest. He reminds me of Portis. ...” That might explain why Dolphins officials have privately told Herald staffer Barry Jackson they believe Miller can be not merely a good starting back, but a great one. They aren't alone. “He’s the fastest running back I’ve ever seen,” said Bommarito, who has trained dozens of them, including Maurice Jones-Drew.
