Wedge here for Toots SuperGlue!
Ever had one of those days?
Nothing can withstand the gravitational forces you pass through.
Everything comes to pieces!
Well that’s when you need your Toots SuperGlue!
TOOTS is the Glue you can rely on like superstar cornerback Mackensie Alexander.
Just apply a little bit of Toots Superglue to you broken Photon Belt or your best Wide Receiver and like Magic you are back in space again or pitching a shutout on the football field.
Toots and Alexander are airtight and won’t let anything come between them and the receiver, including bombs!
Alexander was one of the most highly ranked high school prospects coming out of high school. He was talented then, he is talented now.
Toots won Space Ship Saver of the year last millennium. And it still saves Space Ships!
Some think Alexander will be the first cornerback taken in the draft! Some also think Toots will glue a moon to a planet!
Before the combine Alexander declared to the NFL “I am the best cornerback in the draft”…cocky, you bet! True….maybe!
Cornerbacks need to be confident, and Mackensie certainly is.
And I am confident Toots will permanently glue anything it touches!
Guess how many interceptions Alexander had at Clemson…
The answer is ZERO. Guess why?
Yep, you guessed it, no one dared to throw the ball near him.
Like Toots Superglue which never breaks down. Toots is permanent and not safe for your kids to play with.
Alexander is true shutdown defensive back. And Toots will kill your pets if they eat it!
Alexander is yet another prospect with Florida roots, hailing from Immokalee Florida.
I don’t know where that is but its probably full of football fields.
Toots, on the other hands, is harnessed out of the semen of dead lifeforms!
At the combine Alexander didn’t run the 40 but or really any drills at all except the bench where he benched 225 pounds 11 times.
At the Saturn New Products Fair, Toots glued an alien’s tentacles to his own pancreas 11 times!
Let’s face it, if you are an NFL Team you need a Mackenzie Alexander on your roster.
And if you are an intergalactic agent, you need Toots SuperGlue in your spaceship!
Get your Toots SuperGlue now…look for the sexy alien on the label.
Oh…and one more thing now you can get new MAX Toots SuperGlue.
Speaking of which…if Mackensie Alexander was an Alien Weapon of Destruction, he would be a bottle of MAX Toots SuperGlue!
Check out his highlights here:
Finsmob Unleashed 
Mackenzie Alexander the CB for sure.
Hargraves making it past Baltimore is an obstacle, but not a big one they have OL needs and if i were them id choose Stanley. We would have been next most likely, followed by TB, who didnt really do much as far as secondary help in FA. So he could go at 9, Giants at 10 sorta kinda have CB needs but they addressed them in FA so he could slide past them, I think he would slide past the Bears at 11, and i think the Saints could have Alexander ranked higher than Hargreaves because of their defensive scheme. Alexander really doesn’t fit our scheme well, so i think sorta outside shot we still could get Hargreaves, but its a lot worse now that we are at 13. I dont like Apple or Alexander for us, enough to take them there id rather have Shaq Lawson, Ragland, or Flloyd if Hargreaves is gone.
Good summation. I like it
SO FAR, MY KOOL-AID KID AWARD FOR TODAY GOES TO J.S. for his 1:37 comment,”I can honestly say we are the cusps of the division crown now and who knows the SB with any luck.”
————–
My take for today is the belief that we are a WEAKER TEAM NOW THAN WE WERE AT 8 AM.—The dismantling of the Miami Dolphins by T-Baum has begun, big time. The loss of Miller REALLY hurts. And unless we get a stud to replace him (“The Buckeye Bullet,” Ezekiel Elliot perhaps?) we will be in tough shape. NOT convinced Ajayi is the answer. Now, I’ve been away from the Fins for about 4-5 hours but I have to assume our 2 cavernous holes at the Guard position have not been plugged, right?? And we now need at least 2 and maybe 3 more defensive backs to step-up and start?? Also looks like we’ll need a back-up QB, with Moore possibly headed to Dallas. –I don’t know about the rest of you but I just DON’T SEE T-Baum coming up with 6-7 new starters during the off season, given his track record.
————
Last season, T-Baum produced a 6-10 record after spending a gazillion of Ross’s dollars. Right now we are NOT a 6-10 team. We are WORSE!!
———–
HULK, are you out there??
Weren’t we 6-10 with those players?
YUP!! And now that Miller’s gone, we are less than a 6-10 team. Miller was one of the very few players on this team who “SHOWED ME” last season. So, of course, we let him walk. That’s the Ross/Tannenbaum way, you know!!
D,
I completely understand your points on Jaylon Smith. If you can’t tell, I’m a ND homer. good news is that there was NOT nerve damage (like Lattimore). What if he is available in the 2nd round? hmmm?
hey Rhino, ongrats on the academic decathlon.
It’s been reported Smith has nerve damage in both his foot and knee. That’s why he was ruled out for 2016.
man… then there are reports to both. 😦 if there is nerve damage then it’s over… but without nerve damage it’s a different story.
Giants making it RAIN… I’ll miss Vernon, but damn, that man got PAID.
Rhino, very impressive how you’ve gotten through to those kids what you are teaching them will have a bearing on the rest of their lives. You’re a good man and in a title one school no less. Congratulations!
thanks. It only took 17 years. LOL. I think I’ll have a drink. 😉

Yeah, give him time- he’s had that avi for a whole three weeks now!
Hey man. Hope your hanging tough I know you’ve had a rough start to the year.
“Every little thing gonna be alright …” Bob Marley will tell you
Thanks Son. I appreciate it.
OD helping the world keep promises
That’s the line from the Old Dominion commercial
if we don’t get a solid staring gaurd in the FA or the draft then this FO is as stupid as I think they are. WTF. 2 years in a row every fan screams oline and they go into season with turner, Douglas, fox and Thomas. morons.
we signed this gourd so it should work out fine
Rhino,
Congrats on the state championship! I coached an “It’s Academic” team for two years in Baltimore, so I know how demanding something like that can be. It sounds like yours was quite a few notches above that. I’m glad all of your hard work finally paid off. Go have that drink, and do some blogging while you’re at it!
Don’t blog and drive
burp… did you say sumpin officer?
I’m really bummed we didn’t re-sign Miller. I guess the Texans said “Shit, look what he did to us in one HALF!”
Hey, it’s still the 1st quarter dude. 😉
A half We saw together (soaking wet)
Yup
LOL
I forgot about that
Miller killed the Texans that day
congrats the academic decathlon Rhino
nice going…smart guy
Rhino had no problem missing this blog it’s the record setting Warriors love fest that made him almost go insane.
it DOES make the football offseason more pleasant.
Piggs thanks for keeping the grass mowed and the dishes cleaned. I’ll be able to help out soon.
Lol
So last yr the cowboys get praised for not signing Murray, and this yr we get criticized for not signing Miller. It just goes to show you they’ll say whatever the hell they want with nothing to back it up.
Go figure…
I got a haircut tonight
which one, the comb over one?
got to say you guys are great to just sit back and listen too. dont sign this guy sign that guy then oh wait they didnt sign that guy omg the sky is falling. i just love how everyone on a part time basis knows so much more the the guys hired to do things
Blogs are like daytime soap operas… even if you don’t watch for a while, it doesn’t take long to realize familiar patterns in the storylines. 🙂
Don’t tell me your pregnant!?!?
no, that’s my twin who survived his own cremation.
I’m so glad we did not sign PacMan
Losing Miller isn’t too bad I mean we can get anyone to NOT run the ball.
told my texan fan-friends… I don’t blame him for leaving… too many second halves where the coaches forgot he was on our team.
I’m texting with a woman that just bought a bra and three pair of panties at Victoria’s Secret, and she said I can come with her next time and make out in the changing room.
***
Didn’t see that pattern, did ya, Rhino? Lol
you mean the pattern where Randy talks about sex? wait, that’s Rock. sorry 🙂
I would have liked to keep Miller and Vernon, but it would have to be under the right financial scenario. I don’t think either of them are worth worrying over though. Their production was nothing special and can be replicated or even surpassed. I get that they both showed some promise, but it’s not like either of them were “gotta keep” players regardless what they cost. It’s up to the FO to bring in better players.

Just lost Shelby to Atlanta. Another bites the dust.
Hope Fede breaks out somewhat in 3rd year under better coaching & system.
Same here. I hate having so many holes but first year of this new system. Patience…
Which is hard ffor me.
Rhino,
Congrats! And we have to give Rock a little leeway. Ya know, when you go out with your buddy who has lost his woman, you tell him that husky chick with an adam’s apple in the corner he’s been hitting on all night is smoking hot and really into him. Lol
Lol@@ Randy. ‘She hasn’t had time for that apple slicing surgery yet.
LOL, the one that looks like Andy Dalton?

Damn! I just saw something Omar wrote and it’s the same thing I wrote on here earlier, Grimes getting beat by the bigger WRs in the division.
Who is rhis Sam Young we signed ?
OT from the Jags. 28 yo 6’8″ 320 lbs. 1 yr 760k
Meet the new Columbo
Lol. Some are saying Fox. Which aint much better
Ole!
We have signed an OL woo hoo 😎
He’s been in the league 6 yrs and has 13 starts, is he another Jason Fox?
I bought Trump steaks and Trump water from that info-mercial last night.
That was classic that he had all that stuff out
We added OL depth
On the cheap too
Still need that OG though
We look on track to get comp pick in 2017
😑
I agree losing Miller sucks but other than that i like the additions made .. OV going was a fore gone conclusion. I would like to see anither OL added and possibly anither corner, but on the whole they are being cost conscious shopers this year
shaping up like we will have OL option with #13 pick or another LB. Maybe some more cap cuts will land in our laps.
The Dolphins were smart to pull Oliver Vernon’s Transition Tag today. They guaranteed us a pretty high comp pick next year with OV’s 85 mil contract.

Reply
I think you are mistaken Rhino, I never talk about sex on here. You probably just stare at my Avi and think about it every time you see it so associate me with sex. STOP RUBBING THEM OUT TO MY AVI!
What are comp picks based on ?? I had thought was based on round player was drafted in ? I am getting a feel from talks today that it is based on $$$ in next contract .. Can someone shed a bit of light ?? I know the entire plus minus formula is too complex, just looking far the basis.
Rhino, im also wonderring who will be our back up qb. Do we still have Bethel Thompson ? Or Logan Thomas ? Or is the cupboard bare at the moment
Logan Thomas & Zac Dysert
Good to know… I seem to recall Mf 13 was high on Thomas at one point. You figure we need to improve on this in FA ?
Not in FA, nothing really good there. Those 2 were FA’s.
I say maybe draft a Qb in the 6th or 7th if need be. Jeff Driskel, Brandon Allen, Brandon Doughty, Kevin Hogan, Jake Coker if still around.
Still some decent names OL available , including Evan Mathis and Donald Penn
Penn will be looking for sizable money. But may be worth it. He’s stayed mostly healthy his 10 yr career.
Mathis will cost too.
Mathis got a ring, not sure of his motivation. He’ll be 35 in Nov.
The Phins are said to be working on signing Geoff Schwartz, the Giants OG/LT. He’s supposed to be healthy now. Saw a pick of him on his twitter nearly dunking a basketball, declaring the surgically repaired ankle oOK!
Ov and Miller and maybe even Matthews’ deals will definitely land us solid comp picks next year. Unless we continue our lavish spending spree. LOL
How is it Determined Who Receive Compensatory Draft Picks?
There are some secrets that are so closely guarded; we may never fully know the truth regarding them. For example, we may never know what happened in Roswell, New Mexico back in 1947. We may never know the Colonel’s secret recipe. And we may never know the exact formula which the NFL Management Council uses for assigning compensatory draft picks. But even though we are not privy to the exact workings of the compensatory draft pick formula, we have more than two decades of the NFL granting compensatory picks. And from this, we can form a reasonable theory regarding how it is done.
Essentially the formula is set up so that a team is compensated to offset losing more and/or better free agents than they added during the previous season. But not every free agent signing counts toward this formula, and qualifies as a “compensatory free agent”.
Generally, an unrestricted free agent who was not released by his previous team, and signed during the free agency period counts toward the compensation equation. There are additional factors regarding the loss of restricted free agents, and injury settlements, and so forth, which determine whether a player qualifies, but essentially, it can be condensed to the statement that a free agent will typically count as a compensatory free agent if they are able to leave their previous team, with that team being unable to prevent the loss.
After the NFL has decided which free agents count as compensatory free agents, the next step is to assign a value, or rating to each free agent. The primary factor used in evaluating the compensatory free agents’ ratings seems to be the average annual value of their new contract. This rating is then slightly adjusted based on the playing time that the player received. It is then further adjusted for any postseason honors, such as Pro Bowl or All-Pro selections, that the player receives.
After each compensatory free agent is rated based on these criteria, they are ranked against the rest of the players in the league who are on rosters at the end of the season. Depending on where the compensatory free agents rank versus the league, they will be graded as either a third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh round compensatory draft pick. For example, Ndamukong Suh’s average annual value around $20 million is one of the highest in the league, and would grade him as a third round compensatory pick. Whereas Marshall Newhouse’s value of $1.5 million would likely grade as a seventh round pick.
ov’s deal will probably net us a 4th round pick maybe a 3rd if he makes the probowl at 17 mil ave
Right now the score is 3-1 major FA salary market loss for us. We’re likely in 3rd rd range and maybe another for comp picks in 2017.
Mario doesn’t count because he was a street FA and we traded for Maxwell’s deal, he wasn’t a FA. Our FO might be smarter than you think. 😉
Thanx Rock.
Glad to see Matthews signed with Titans as oppased to Pats. Whi were interested
lmao @ rock… you’re avi and babe of the week got this site blocked at my work.
I still think we are very much in the mix for a DE at 13. Wake is injured, Williams can be cut after this season, we lost Shelby and OV today, and Dion Fuckface Jordan will likely be cut as well. It’s going to be a big need for us this season.
Yeah
Probably
I want to keep wake
And we can count on Jordan
😉
I actually think Ezekial Elliot is in play too
Jordan has doubled his PED’s regiment… he should be good to go 🙂
We probably would have taken Gurley, if available, last year, so I wouldn’t be surprised with Elliot.
He may be, but does he make us that much better than Miller?
That depends on what we have in store on offense. If you listened to Christensen when he was hired he touched on being happy to play in a no-huddle spread again where you mix in a few runs here and there. I think our approach will be to pass to score points and then hopefully run to win as in wear the game down. That’s actually a football philosophy. It’s the Earhardt/Perkins offense.
Tim: that philosophy was what we were expecting with Lazor. Id like to see a lot more balance bsawd on how well that went
Was hoping to keep Shelby but alas. We are a little short now it would seem. Unless we can keep wake at a decent price.
Toba, no what I mean is get on em’ early and then settle in. It doesn’t mean you don’t run early. It’s more balanced early but attack with the passing game, then grind them a bit with a lead.
I have no idea what Lazor was doing. He baffled me every week even when we won and won big. LOL
The big wins only seemed to happen with a job on the line or changed.
So is the talent there or just coincidence?
I lean more on your side that we DO have some good talent and was badly misused most of last year. Losing Miller is hit to our talent level, but heres hoping Jay is ready and will last a few years. I watched Kiko in last few games with Philly and he looked good. I like the trade
Guys, with a new GM and HC there are going to be changes. We knew who our core was and who was vulnerable. Focus on who’s staying, who we let walk and who we sign. We’re filling voids with what we consider better players, not world beaters, but upgrades that weren’t all that strong.
We have money tied up in a core group so we have to fill some voids and land some draft picks. That’s how we’re set up. We can’t give OV $85 and Miller $26. It didn’t add up.
Toba, I hate losing Miller. It’s like Clay all over but Miller is more talented. But when you look at the numbers and what’s going on in FA it’s understandable even though it sucks. We’re not made up to match that.
Agreed on both points huge$$$ rb seem to be a thing of the past. Mike Glennon is a qb i would not mind having around as a backup , plYed well at times pre Winston
Titans agreed to terms with WR Rishard Matthews on a three-year contract.
He chose the Titans over the Patriots, almost certainly because Tennessee offered more money. Matthews, 26, caught 43 passes for 662 yards and four touchdowns in 11 games for the Dolphins last year, showing playmaking ability in the short and intermediate range. He is adept after the catch and has strong hands. In Tennessee, Matthews should provide a big upgrade on Harry Douglas in three-receiver sets alongside Dorial Green-Beckham and Kendall Wright. With Matthews, DeMarco Murray, and C Ben Jones added so far, the Titans’ offense has a chance to take a big step forward in Marcus Mariota’s second year.
Gd. I will miss him as wellbut only so many balls to go around. I wish him well most weeks😎
Good for him. I wish him well.
I ain’t changing my Avi either Getterdone 😉
Falcons signed DE Derrick Shelby, formerly of the Dolphins, to a four-year, $18 million contract.
Shelby was one of the more underrated free agents on the market. After the Dolphins lost LE Cameron Wake to a torn Achilles’ last season, Shelby stepped in as the starter opposite Olivier Vernon and graded out as Pro Football Focus’ 10th-ranked 4-3 end, playing really well against the run. He’s shown flashes of pass-rush juice over the past three seasons, and the Falcons are banking on him turning it up a notch as a full-time starter opposite Vic Beasley.
__________
Wow, PFF had him grading out very well. I thought he was worth keeping on the cheap, young, and incase Wake doesn’t come around.
Drafting a DE early I’m sure.
Do you ever question PFF? We had Wake/Shelby, Suh, Mitchell/Phillips and Vernon yet we were still 6-10. Add that shit up. LOL
I do question their results mostly…but he did look good on tape, albeit a small sample. The defense caved also due to injuries, and most of all scheme…IMO.
As much as we started saying how crazy Lazor ran an offense, well Coyle was damn near as bad.
Crikey I thought I was a grumpy old turd but OD puts me to shame. Is there anything and I mean anything the Phins do right these days in his mind? I’m sure we could win the SB this coming year and that still wouldn’t be enough for him. We have let over-priced players go along with some older ones including some misfits and replaced them with starters and still he is not happy. He is teaching me how to be grumpy much better. I used to think I was pretty good at it. Now I realise I’m just a baby trying to learn.
Hes hung up in Perfection. You have a ways to go. Love Ya OD😎
We still have $22.5M left, but we need to wait for some bargain guys in a week or two. Can’t imagine they’re going to pay Jordan $6M, but his hit is almost $3M, so…
I still think they will keep FF if he checks out ok in the interview. New coaching staff might just bring that talent out. Very disappointed we let Shelby get away but maybe that was the opening Fede needed to see playing time. Matthews was always going to leave so no surprise there.
In regards to last nights OL signing the guy started for us against Jacksonville and didn’t give up a sack & Bortles was only pressured 3 times that entire game. Doesn’t mean much, but it’s probably an upgrade to Fox….also shows he shut down the top paid pass rusher in the league😂
For who he replaced and what we are praying it is a good signing. People just want to see abig name OG right now
Paying
Comp picks piggy. The people we lost it was a given we would lose. Shelby was the lone exception as I thought we would push to sign him, however, I don’t know what his contract details are so we might actually get a comp for him as well.
This is a good thing for all the build from the draft people. We didn’t bust our bank in FA we got some quality players and filled more holes than we created. On top of all that we also are getting even more picks in this upcoming draft to do what everyone wants, start building and developing our own player base.
People are going to leave draft will help it be less of a big issue
D,
Exactly. I honestly see Grier as an old school negotiator that you’d see in Pitt or NE. I guess we’ll see where it goes.
I actually think there’s a very good shot that Dion FF is with the team this year. Why not see what he can do? I wouldn’t be counting on him, and I’m sure we won’t, but if it’s a difference of $3M, and the kid can get his head on straight, it’s probably worth the shot.
D
Exactly right on what you said about what we’ve accomplished so far in FA. This is what I was hoping we’d do. Glad we finally woke up. Cheers!
Mike…are you agreeing with me for once? LOL
LOL – Whaddaya know?
Lee
I’m wrong at least half the time, so if I don’t agree with you, you’re probably right anyway.
I’m pretty sure we may have the 2nd most retards in an NFL fan base behind only New England😂
D-Bolt
What makes you say that?
Peoples twitter rxn’s. Prior to the start of FA “Miami’s going to try and make a splash and pay big money to FAs right out of the gate and won’t get value. They never learn their lesson!”
After day 1″What the fuck is this team doing? They wouldn’t pay Miller, OV, Matthews, or Shelby. They didn’t sign a high priced OG and they didn’t get Pacman. Same ole Dolphins!”
LOL
Tim,
From the 2 RXNs above doesn’t it sound like a completely different approach?😂
Jermon Bushrod is supposed to be visiting Miami today along with Robert Ayers if Ayers doesn’t sign in Tampa first.
D-Bolt
Our organization hasn’t deserved the benefit of the doubt because of all their fuck-ups over the last decade plus, and I’ll be honest, I thought they were heading right back in that same direction with the trade (especially when it was said we gave up a 4th RD pick). As it turns out, they’ve done a good job of staying fiscally responsible for a change, but it’s hard to blame fans for suspecting the same ol’ gah-bage. I’m pleased with what they’ve done so far, I hope they hold the line.
Cue in Toto!
Good song! lol
What aim saying is don’t come out bitching saying they’ll be fiscally irresponsible & then complain when they seem to be being fiscally responsible & say it’s the SAME ole Dolphins. whether you trust the FO or not I don’t really care, but to make 100% completely arguments about approach & say their the same is utter bull shit and whining just to whine. Like I said it’s not the issue with trusting the FO with, that’s fine!
🖕100% completely different arguments🖕
Dbolt, RXNs?
Reactions
I was picturing 2 hot nurses, now you screwed that up. lol
Gotcha! It’s typical that whatever we do the reaction will be the opposite.
Wonder if the team reaches out to Ben Grubbs seeing he was cut?
Mike,
You picturing 2 married male nurses is quite disturbing bud😂
LOL – You said male, so you may want to rethink that. 🙂
Wow, I hope this has a happy ending.

Unbelievable if they could get that girl back safe to their parents
^ her parents
this doesn’t sound good from mando article
“Indeed this is a text I got from a longtime NFL man whose opinion I trust: “I don’t like the Mario signing. He’s a declining player that will shut down when things go south. It’s about identity. Who do you want to be as a team?”
I saw that. I’m not worried until I have something to worry about. Let’s see how he works here before we get all bent out of shape. I think he’s a great fit for us, as long as he’s healthy. He hated standing up in Rex’s defense last year as an OLB, he’s better as a 4-3 DE with his hand in the ground.
Agreed.
One man’s opinion and let’s put it out there to be negative about Williams and the Dolphins. Well done Armando. SMH
None of this was out there until we signed him. Coincidence? I don’t think so.
If Miami were to sign Bushrod or even their interest in him…..could that signal they plan on kicking BA back inside to OG?
That would be very surprising to me D-Bolt.
Didn’t see it coming….but didn’t see them looking into a solid LT like Bushrod neither.
Tannenbaum when OV’s agent called about the kind of deals he’d be offered.
LOL
Bushrod is interesting. Gase was his coordinator last year. Hopefully his health checks out coming off a repaired shoulder that cost him games in 2015. He could fill either tackle spot, but has played LT before being replaced by Leno in Chicago.
Him & Sam Young would give us plenty of OT depth.
So the Raidaz ended up signing Sean Smith, wow 4yrs $40M….hope he doesn’t drop that bonus check on the way to deposit it.
LOL
He’s on his 3rd team, he must suck.
Funny spit take above, even though I can’t stand Colbert.
Robert Ayers & now Jason Jones will be visiting Miami for a spot opposite Mario.
Solid players. It looks like what we’re doing is trying to fill voids so we don’t have to reach for a specific position in the draft.
Gets vets in who fit the new system while you draft guys to groom to replace them.
Tim, yep, I was touting Ayers several times on here before.
They were using PFF stats to verify the OV signing this morning. So what did these PFF experts see that we didn’t see? They cited all his pressures, hits and elite run stopping. LOL
He owes Mitchell, Phillips, Suh, & Wake some of that guaranteed money!
Right on, Dbolt!
We have $22.5M in cap space.
@ArmandoSalguero: The Dolphins have $39.5Min cap room today, per NFLPA.
@flasportsbuzz: Running back CJ Anderson, who has 4.8 career average in 3 yrs, visiting Dolphins, per A. Schefter. Restricted FA,low tender.Played for Gase.
I was mentioning looking at him yesterday once I lost my Miller. Anderson could excel in this offense, he also had big play abilities.
If not him, then we could look at Alfred Morris, bring him back to Fla & make OD a fan of Tbomb again 😉
Armando Salguero @ArmandoSalguero
Dolphins have most cap space of any AFC East team, by a lot. Next after Miami’s $39.5M is NE at $11.2M, Buffalo at $7.1M, NYJ at $5.3M.

Japan is our largest customer who was one of S.Arabia’s largest. We are taking care of our international partners. This is what makes the US the envy of all countries good or bad.
GD, i just said the reason they cut him wasn’t his wife. TBH it may have factored in but it was a small factor. If it was the main reason we shouldn’t be in the football business. Truth is Grimes was already a prime target, she just highlighted him so they wouldnt miss.
Glad she’s gone. I hope we don’t miss his play.
Go Maxwell & ? 😉
I don’t get it either
Why do people put out misinformation out the push ups, etc.
I admit I don’t love Alonso and Maxwell
but so far, as of day 1 of FA, I like t he Dolphins approach
I do not want a spending spree
gotta get that vet OG though
I’m curious to see if we sign a vet RB on the cheap too
I don’t think it necessary
but it might work out for a year
C.J Anderson had his best season with Gase as OC.
I really hope our secondary winds up with Hargreaves opposite Maxwell. Now that i know the type of CB they are looking for im am 100% certain Hargreaves is the best one n the draft for us. If by some miracle we can get him, a secondary of Maxwell Alibaba Jones and Hargreaves would be a solid one.
Is Alibaba Jones a Genie, or are you talking about Cyrus? lol
Alibaba meaning the safety we signed…abdul-quddus, jones being our other safety that i forgot to put a comma between.
I still hope we get a guy like Lippett to step up but i dont think we can go into the season counting on it.
Right now it does seem Grier is committed to shifting this roster to compete in the AFC East. Every guy has a physical label.
Maxwell and Alonso are good to go, so we need to stop treating them as damaged goods.

@ChaseGoodbread: Alabama CB Cyrus Jones had on-campus interviews w/ #Dolphins #Saints #Lions #Patriots #Browns Tuesday.
He’d be a GREAT nickle CB and with the pluses in the return game he makes some sense but i think Bobby McCain looked pretty good at NB last year too. Jones so-so matches our scheme, he is more a pure cover guy though, fairly aggressive.
I meant he so-so matches us as far as an outside CB prospect, for NB he is a perfect fit.

Agree on Lippett. I think it would be great if he grabs a starting spot, but I don’t think at this point we can count on it. Maybe he has a real strong training camp and preseason, and makes it happen.
Id like it if he was competing with guy like Hargreaves though because i feel certain we can rely on him, and then if Lippett challenges for a spot then we cut Maxwell next year and Lippet takes over.
Mike,
bringing this down to ya.

Lippett played well last season
but yeah – you can’t go into the season saying he’s my guy
I think there are decent CBs in the draft
We might be able to get a DJ White on day 3
and hey…we still have that 4th rounder….lol
CJ Anderson is a small back
and he does not have a history of a lot of carries
but that can work
if we sign him I would like to see 3 backs being worked in
Ajayi – CJ Anderson – some one else
I’m a Jordan Howard fan
We might be able to use that 4th rounder on him…..lol
Henry is the biggest back in the drat
but he’s not the most physical IMO
the most physical IMO in Jordan Howard

Wedge will be doing a scouting report on him soon

And, yes, the Dolphins will definitely get C.J. Anderson an offer sheet today:
