This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
I think the main reasons Green was cut so soon was because he had a big contract and also to give the other CB's some work...as well as give him a chance to catch on somewhere else.
Roster cut downs aren't until Sept. 1 (to 75) and Sept. 5 (to 53).
That's 12 days away for the first cut. We may not see many let go until then.

That was genious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These coaches i think hypnotize other team coaches or something man.......How the hell did we get a 6th rounder for this stiff....
I had high hopes for Rodrique Wright when he was drafted. Looks like this might be the end of the road for him as a Dolphin. I'm guessing his lack of significant play since being drafted makes him untradeable.
I wonder if Parcells and Ireland have played an fantasy football. They have been shrewd with trades. It would be great if we could continue to get value for players who would only be cut otherwise.
An NFL source has told me the Dolphins tried to trade Ernest Wilford before terminating his contract but no one was interested. And the Dolphins are not averse to conducting further business both on the giving and receiving end of a trade if the player and the price is right. In fact, GM Jeff Ireland has been working the phones with over a dozen teams in the past 10 days, I'm told.
