Colonel, I'm disappointed as well in Tua's performance, but excepting Parker, he's getting no help whatsoever. Ford has been abysmal. Is Hollins even playing? Bowden looks like a QB playing receiver.

I'm not going to make excuses for Tua who has been less than stellar, but outside of Devante Parker and Gaskin, he's getting no help whatsoever. Outside of Parker and Gesicki, we have the worst receivers in the entire league.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

It was a good run, guys but the team just isn't a playoff caliber team yet. We need for Grier to hit some home runs with our picks. We need playmakers. We need some additional offensive lineman for depth and potential starters depending on how the rookies pan out. Even if we'd made the playoffs, we'd have been one and done. BTW, I just watched Ford just drop a sure first down grab that hit him be
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I agree that we need playmakers at wide receiver and running back but Sewell is a guy that's being talked about in Orlando Pace, Walter Jones and Anthony Munoz terms. Not saying he'll be that good but that's what some are saying. How could you pass on that type of talent? Plus, if you take Sewell, you get the bonus of moving Hunt to guard and you improve that position. Flowers has been okay, but
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

I think with the rookie pay scale, we'd have a pretty cap friendly contract for Sewell. If he turns out to be as good as they say, that second contract will be a big one. I still think it would be hard to pass on a guy that's being talked about as a generational talent. We may not even get a chance though, because now that Lawrence is going to Jacksonville, the jets may take Sewell themselves and
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Since Houston is playing Tenn on Sunday and Tenn needs the game, I think it's a good bet that Houston will lose. It looks like if they do, they'll have the third overall pick. If so, what do you all think about Miami taking Penei Sewell? I know that we need playmakers, but if Sewell falls to us, can we afford to not take him? Miami would have bookend franchise tackles in Jackson and Sewell. You c
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

My only take is that Brian Flores has earned the right to not be second guessed by fans who don't have near the information that he does. I trust the guy that's taken what was described as the worst roster in NFL history and in one short year has them at 10 wins and on the precipice of a playoff berth. It looks like we have our franchise coach and so far, I trust his judgment.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Knowing what a s**t show the jets have been throughout the history of their franchise, I'm guessing that Lawrence couldn't be happier about the jet's latest win.

If they both lose out, Jags get Lawrence and jets fans can agonize for the next decade about winning that one game. LOL You got to love it.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Call me crazy, but I'm not going to evaluate a rookie QB in a season where there was no preseason and he didn't start his first game until the 7th game of the season and after coming back from a horrendous injury that could've ended his career. I would only add that in his last game (and for a good bit of the one before) he was throwing to a waiver wire pickup from Philly, two rookie receivers wh

I think Tua's performance was pretty solid given what he was working with. No Devante Parker, Preston Williams, Myles Gaskin, and eventually no Gesicki. He was down to Mack Hollins and Lynn Bowden, Mahomes was throwing to an all pro stable of receivers plus had his two top running backs. Miami spotted them a punt return touchdown and still Miami was a fourth down conversion away from having a cha

Well at least Houston is losing. We need to hit some home runs with those draft picks.
Forum: Miami Dolphins Civilized Discussion

Colonel, I've wondered how the offense would look just by adding two new players: an all pro quality running back and a wide receiver who's a bona fide deep threat? I like Jakeem, but he's not that type of player. His drop of a picture perfect Tua bomb was painful to watch. Add those two players to the current offense, and how much better is it? I honestly think it would be exponentially bet

Interesting game in the sense that I never felt like Miami would lose, but I also never felt that they were playing particularly well. I guess that's a tribute to how bad the jets are. Some might disagree with me but I think Xavien Howard is one of the few elite talents on this roster. The man just keeps making plays.

If this game showed me anything, it's that the team can't stand pat on the offensive line during the draft and free agency. Jesse Davis is okay from a depth standpoint, but he's not NFL starting caliber. I like Karras a lot but long-term, he isn't the answer. Drafting a young talented center is vital. Regarding the rookies, it's still wait and see.

No big surprise here. He wasn't going to get any playing time going forward, so best to part company. In more important news, Zach Seiler signs extension through 2023. Good move. This kid has impressed me. Non-stop motor and makes plays.

I was surprised to see Ford get traded. I liked him. He was sure handed and had a knack for moving the chains. To be honest, I was thinking he should get more playing time at the expense of Preston Williams. The two drops by Williams are problematic. I hope it's an aberration and not an ongoing problem. DeAndre Washington is an interesting pickup. I think he goes about 5" 8" and 210

Omar Kelly is reporting that they're fielding trade offers for Xavien Howard. I hope Omar is wrong on this. Xavien has been our best defender and he seems to be trending up. I haven't been sold on Grier as GM and if he does this, I'll be even less sold on him.

The only thing I'd add, I truly doubt this team was going to win a championship this year with Fitz or Tua. Still too many holes on the roster need to be filled. So if we're talking about next year and the year later and so forth, Tua is probably the right play.
