Q: Do you REALLY think the Dolphins' offensive line is good enough to take advantage of Ricky Williams' presence, protect Jay Fiedler and make the Dolphins a serious Super Bowl contender? I am very skeptical. Jon Sloane, St. Louis, MO
A: I can't offer a final judgment until the end of training camp. There are questions at every position along the line except at right tackle, but there is talent that can be effective when healthy (i.e. center Tim Ruddy and left guard Mark Dixon).
A: Chester is 26 years old. As for Burnett, he will be filling a need for the Dolphins as a backup veteran defensive end at a relatively low price. The Dolphins would have preferred to keep Bromell and Mixon, but both received lucrative offers from Minnesota that the team was unable to match

Burnett is a better DE than Bromell.

I'm happier with Chester and Burnett. Chester is a better tackle than Mixon and Burnett is a better DE than Bromell. If DG proves to be a better DE than Mixon, we're good to go.

In Burnetts' last full season he had 10 sacks......LoBro has never had 10 sacks in a season, let alone be strong enough against the run to be considered anything other than a situational player.
One year rested and asked to do nothing more than get after the passer.....Burnett will blow Brommell away.
