Our biggest deficiencies last year our side of QB last year were o-line, TE, and LB who could cover a TE. So free agency start and we go after two WRs who were both number 3 options on other teams, so we decided to pay them as #2 WRs. One is 32 years and we guaranteed 3/4 of his cpontract much like we did with Timmons and Mario Williams. All this as Grant was emerging last year as the obvious pick for our #3 WR, who costs 1/16 of either of these contracts.

We had a very talented kicker who won games last season so we let him walk.

Our oline was awful for what 5 years in row, so we decide to keep the same core and over pay for an average RT.

We currently have a no TE worth mentioning, but are just about out of money, as the Suh relief doesn't kick in to June 1st.

Oh year we have no back up QB either dispite losing 1.25 seasons due to not having a back up QB.

Bang up job front office.

You do not seem to grasp that free agency technically has not even begun yet. But don’t let that hold you back from complaining already.

It hasn’t? Because we already committed to 2 WRs, lost our kicker, retained an over paid RT. Has FA started for Sammy Watkins, Allen Robinson, Case Keenum . I know it’s official tomorrow but all big moves happen the day before, as it has been abundant clear that FA starts as soon as legal tampering starts.
 
next year it will be the same thing.

OL still sucks
dont have a #1 WR
dont have a seam threat TE
throw too many screens
cant get pressure on the QB
cant cover the TE
Need a cover safety

but hey, we just overpayed for2 slot receivers under 6 feet. look the **** out.

Gase is wetting himself right now thinking of all the screen plays he can run.

Not every player has to be announced day ****ing 1 LOL.

Still plenty of talent that hasn't even been talked about.
 
That's simply not true, instead of having one of the better DT's in the NFL, we now don't have that. Instead 1 player running short routes we signed 2 players to run those routes. Also everyone we add from now on is smarter than the player they replaced.
 
.02 on the TE criticism

This is a terrible year to sign a FA TE.. this is a year to draft one.
Dolphins are/were in on Ed Dickson, although hard pass
Dolphins will likely have interest in soon-to-be FA Dion Sims (Chi signed Burton)
Plus this team is good enough to trade for a guy like Ebron or something wacky.


should definitely save the TE criticism til after the draft.

True but we have no money left already. The money we save with Suh doesn’t make kick in to the summer. We were nEGATIVE 8 million, cut Traded jarv and got + 8, cut Timmons and got +14, and we have cut Thomas we get to plus 20. We committed 14 to two wrs. We have no Sfarting TE, G, back up Rb, K, and back up Qb.

Again, it’s the day before free agency. It’s true the team has those needs but since they HAVE to be filled they will find ways to get there. Complaining in May would make a ton more sense bc that’s after the dust settles. Not March 13th.

That's not how the cap works.
 
It's pretty clear Gase is being allowed to execute his vision. His analysis is that if you get rid of the guys that can't just do their job and replace them with smarter players, his offense will hum.

And honestly, whether he's right or wrong on all of this, I appreciate that Ross and the FO are allowing him to do what he wants. Because it makes no sense to hire a HC and then hamstring him. If Gase's ideas turn out wrong, then you get rid of him and hire someone else, and hopefully give that person the same freedom to execute their plan.

My real complaint is we gave the Lawerence Timmons contract to another 32 player and guaranteed 3/4 of it. My other complaint is we over payed for 2 WRs when have spent so many resources on Wr the past 3 years. Kenny, Parker, Grant, Carroo, Ford, is enough. When have ever heard dominant wr Corp leading a team to a SB. With what Gave for Parker, Caroo, Wilson, and Amendola is embarrassing
