I sure hope so


Robert Quinn DL, Miami Dolphins

The Miami Herald's Barry Jackson reports the Dolphins "assuredly will" release DE Robert Quinn.
Jackson believes Miami will also "likely" do the same with fellow DE Andre Branch. Releasing Quinn, who was acquired from the Rams this time last year, will save the Dolphins over $12.9 million against the cap, while Branch's release would free up another $7 million. The moves make sense financially but would leave Miami with precious little depth off the edge. Cameron Wake could also be shipped out as a veteran on a surefire tanking club. Quinn, 29 in May, had 6.5 sacks as a 16-game starter last season.
 
Would be a good start. Overpaying mediocre talent is the primary reason we are in an 8-8 hell and always unable to pay our own drafted, homegrown talent. Kiko, Branch, McDonald, McCain, etc. these contracts make no sense to me. It’s an embarrassment to not be able to shake up your starting roster because your cap space is going to players with low ceilings.

Trim the fat, pay Xavien Howard and build around that secondary along with Minkah, and look for your qb in 2020.
 
"Assuredly will" cut should be connected to Branch and "likely" should be Quinn. Quinn is the only one of the two with any hope of coming back for another season. Branch is a memory.

Hope so.

If Murray doesnt fall I'm willing to bet a lot of money DL will be the pick, I'm thinking one of the 3 Clemson players are 100% in play.

As a Clemson fan I want Wilkins. Dude is a dominant player, tremendous leader, and a better person. Outside of Williams and Bosa he's the next best thing and talent drop off isn't huge by any means.

Miami would probably be in the same boat as they are now if they kept OV.

No they would just be slightly overpaying a good DE, as opposed to not having any.

NY would cut him today and save 11.5 mil (or 15.5 post June 1) if he sucked, but they won't.
