I seriously hope we draft down.I don't want anymore phenomenal 1st round picks especially if we just get rid of them like Wilkins, or Minka Fitzpatrick. Trade down, get picks because we don't have any in the 3rd and 4th rds.we need DEPTH to survive December meltdowns. Get guys who can tackle and run on special teams. Depth at linebacker, DT and Oline.

My biggest What if is What if we drafted drew Breeze or took him instead of Culpepper. The early Dolphins were great. Maybe the greatest.....but they had phenomenal success. Who would think 50 yrs later we still havnt won Manga Gatz. Regardless.......RIP to a true Miami Veteran .

From the way the investigation went I'm completely guessing here but I believe because of his past history it was most likely Phentonyal. The ole.....waiting for toxicality results doesn't point to a slip and fall. Tragic either way for sure.

I seriously believe McDaniels just wants to play " ultimate Madden " with this team. Big name recievers gives him a hard on. Hidden points on defense defending against a kick, special teams isn't his bag.

I'm starting to wake up to the fact that Grier fits the " NFL demographic " of a minority GM....but hes more interested in making a big splash . Loves players like Hill who can make big plays but discounts the hidden points that really win football games against better teams.

I think he's great at coaching. Getting the best from people. 1 on 1 communication........)I don't think he realizes there are 2 sides of the ball.

Our defense took some huge hits. Key players left or are coming back from serious injuries. I hope the new additions gell. McDaniels stated he's still calling offense. He lives for offense. Fantastic......but zi hope he remembers 2 sides of the ball.....

That's what happens when your wife criteria isn't a person who would make a great mom to your children,someone to celebrate life with. With him it's a piece of arm candy to parade around and he's getting what he paid for.

SIGH. Maybe I just don't know how the cap works. We were severely over the Cap limit. So we let some great players go. In that same time frame we have signed ...8-7 players of need and are looking still entertaining high $$$$ recievers when we have two of the best. Did we save that much money or are we digging another hole? Last year during our melt down another reciver wouldn't have hel

OK. This was a great first half of a season.......but we crashed and burned louder then the Hinderberg. Took me a month of pouting and screaming.......but I think I'm coming out of it now. We need an incredible offseason to remain competitive. I had no idea we are still paying for Ross's bullshit in 2019. We lost a 3rd round pick for tampering. This owner is such a dope.

I used to be fairly well in tune with our wants and needs. We pretty much imploded from starter injuries so its hard to gauge who will bounce back....Ramsey is a freak of nature. But he needs a good tall player playing opposite him if we want to compete and not get blown out by better Teams. We need a stud Center. Needs to play 17 games and not drop balls. Special teams.

I just watched an episode Dolphins weekly. Several scouts and heads of personal are gearing up for the draft and the FA they can afford. Director of Pro personal...Anthony Hunt stated its just fine letting go the higher paid players. Stated Miami sees only 5 Premium positions : QB ,2 recievers on Offense,2 CBs on defense. With TUA , Waddle and Hill and Ramsey Miami believes we are a corn

Yes! Great point on the coaching. Good coaching, making the right decisions at the right time ......does anyone seriously groom the field for the best of what the team needs? A great coach elsewhere might not be great coach here. Why? Understand that and hire better. UDFA . Undrafted free agents. How many go one to probowl careers? Dozens.
