Heck I would take the Blackwood brothers then what we have now.
Will Allen has an injured knee. We don't know how bad it is. If he has to miss a game or 2 or 3, our lineup has Goodman as our #1, Lehan as #2, Jason Allen as the Nickel.

Assuming Will Allen doesn't miss anytime....
then it's #1 Will Allen, #2 Ty Law, #3 Goodman(Nickel). I dislike Lehan (look at his career stats), so this looks better.
The alternative is the "Troy Vincent" plan. When former-pro-bowler Vincent got older, he moved to Safety and had a long career there with the Eagles. You could replace FS Renaldo Hill with Ty Law. That would be an upgrade as well.

We need a band-aid this year, until we can draft a young Sam Madison next year... Ty Law seems to fit the bill.

The Dolphins have reached out to representatives for veteran free agent cornerback Ty Law, to discuss a workout for the five-time Pro Bowl selection, according to a source.
Law, 34, hasn't played in the NFL this season, after starting 16 games for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2007. The South Florida resident has 52 career interceptions, including 10 for the New York Jets, but is best known for his 10 seasons with the New England Patriots. Law visited with the Jets during the offseason, and had phone conversations with the Patriots and Cleveland Browns. In July, he said that he had contract offers, but was waiting for the right opportunity.
The Jets, Patriots and Browns are coached by extensions of the Bill Parcells coaching tree. Parcells is now the Dolphins' VP of Football Operations.
The Dolphins are thin at the position, and allowed Texans quarterback Matt Schaub to throw for 378 yards in Sunday's 29-28 loss to Houston. Andre' Goodman did not practice Thursday due to what coach Tony Sparano called "a personal emergency," and Michael Lehan worked in his starting spot. Will Allen, who has been bothered by a sore knee, did practice. Sparano said he expected Goodman and Allen to play Sunday, and spoke highly of Jason Allen as a cornerback.
Is this the end of Goodman?
We're in sorry shape if we have to count on an old broken down CB like Law.
Sign Trae Williams(eagles PS) instead of a washed up ty law.
