Never to early to start looking toward our future.

39 players are currently signed for the 2021 season. We have the 9th highest cap space in the league with 35million to spend.

Our players who's contract will be expiring at the end of the season include:


Offense
QB - Fitzpatrick: Currently on 8mil
HB - Matt Breida: Currently on 3.2mil
C - Tedd Karras: Currently on 3mil
LT - Julien Davenport: Currently on 2.1mil
TE - Adam Shaheen: Currently on 1.2mil
WR - Mack Hollins: Currently on 825k
G - Adam Pankey: Currently on 825k

RFA - Isaiah Ford (WR)


Defense
ILB - Kamu Grugier-Hill: Currently on 3mil
DT - Davon Godchaux: Currently on 2.1mil
OLB - Vince Biegel: Currently on 2.1mil
ILB - Elandon Roberts: Currently on 2mil
S - Kavon Frazier: Currently on 900k

ERFA - Sam Eguavon (OLB), Calvin Munson (ILB), Nick Needham (CB), Jamal Perry (CB)


Special Teams
P - Matt Haack: Currently on 2.1mil
 
Matt Haack is the only keeper I see. Karras depending on how well he plays this year and the cost could be interesting. If that unit does well they may want to keep it together. They'll probably bring Biegel back if he's healthy, as he'll be cheap and is a scheme fit.

I wouldn't pay Godchaux what he's likely going to ask for. Not an elite run stopper and doesn't get any pressure. Everyone else can be replaced by day 3 picks/udfa.

Guys like Hollins, Grugier-Hill, and Frazier could be back on 1 year deals I guess.
 
Current FA's who have not been resigned as of yet who I think could come to Miami: (Please keep in mind I know a lot of these guys will be resigned but it's just to keep an eye out on who will even potentially be there come FA)

1. Ronnie Stanley (OT) - Baltimore Ravens
- Easily the best OT in the FA class if he even makes it there. Unlikely but this is the NFL and crazier things have happened

2. David Bakhtiari (OT) - Greenbay Packers
- 4 straight all pro (First team x1, Second team x3) appearances

3. Shaquil Barrett (OLB) - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Lead the league in sacks last year with 19.5

4. Joe Thuney (G) - New England Patriots
- Probably the best guard that could make it to FA in 2021

5. Yannick Ngakou (DE) - Minnesota Vikings
- The best edge rusher in the FA class, we'll see how our rush develops with Lawson and Ogbah

6. Justin Simmons (S) - Denver Broncos
- I think our safeties suck, though I do think Brandon Jones can work out, we'll be able to judge later on as the season develops

7. Alvin Kamara (HB) - New Orleans Saints
- I am almost always against 2nd contracts for running backs ... but Alvin Kamara is special, especially if we don't resign Breida

Kamara extended but may as well replace him with his teammate, Marcus Williams. Right up there with Justin Simmons for me. Let's see how Brandon Jones develops, but either of those guys would be big time gets.
 
Depending on how his recovery goes, I think Biegel would be worth resigning if he is willing to sign for $$2.5 million or less. I don’t see a better center on the roster at this time than Karras. So unless they are going to draft a center in the early rounds of the 2021 draft or sign a free agent center, I think signing Karras to a new contract makes sense.

If Fitzpatrick is willing to sign for $3 million or less to be the backup and mentor to Tua, I could see bringing him back under that situation. GodChaux will probably be looking to sign a contract for $5-8 million a year going into his second contract. If Davis doesn’t vastly improve over the remainder of the season the Dolphins will likely try and sign GodChaux but it won’t surprise me if they get outbid by another team.

The rest of the Dolphins FA’s all look replaceable but I have no doubt they will probably resign a few of them for minimum type salaries.
 
Biegel - Definitely Hollins- Definitely Breida - Yes Karras - Yes Fitzpatrick - if we can get him for cheap to Mentor Tua I think that is great Elandon Roberts - No Davenport - Definitely Not Needham and Perry - Yes The rest are replaceable

Thanks for the research.

Nice to see the expiring contracts are a who's who of who's not who on this team.
 
I'd let Godchaux walk and take the likely comp pick Miami gets in return. Not much cap room to go around, so there is a possibility of Godchaux re-signing with Miami. Every one on the above list could be had cheaply due to the expected cap restrictions coming over the next two seasons.

I'd be very interested in Williams. Or just about any FS who is an actual safety and not mccain

I see all of these as pretty unlikely...

Stanley, maybe gets resigned and I dont see us spending a boatload on an OT when we just drafted Jackson and are trying to develop Hunt. Very good player though. Bakhtiari -same and older (i think he's a bit older?) Barrett - maybe a target if he has another good year, but that will elevate him to a huge deal. Thuney, I think we roll with Flowers and our young guys. Ngakoue, I think he resigns with Minnesota and will likely want a huge deal. Simmons, a target I really, really like. I'm down to pay him. Kamara, resigned with the Saints
