[h=3]Miami Dolphins: Quarterback, right tackle[/h]Matt Moore won six of his 12 starts and was instrumental in Miami's second-half turnaround, but all indications are that neither general manager Jeff Ireland nor new head coach Joe Philbin consider him anything more than a stopgap solution at quarterback. Instead, the Dolphins are expected to make a run at a premiere quarterback, withPeyton Manning sitting at the top of their wish list. If Manning spurns them, the Dolphins would likely target Green Bay's Matt Flynn or look to trade up to the top of the draft for Baylor phenom Robert Griffin III.
Whoever ends up as the quarterback, the Dolphins will need to do a better job of protecting him, as the offensive line's 9.6 percent adjusted sack rate was 30th in the league in 2011. Some of that can be attributed to injuries, and the return of a healthy Jake Long will go a long way toward solidifying the line. However, right tackle Marc Colombo was a disaster and will not be re-signed, leaving a hole that may not be filled until the draft. Several early mocks have linked standout Iowa tackle Riley Reiff to Miami, but that option looks much more attractive with Manning or Flynn safely under contract.
Miami's short-yardage woes can partly be linked to that same patchwork offensive line, but they also speak to the disappointing play of rookie Daniel Thomas. No one should be shocked when Reggie Bush puts up a 37 percent success rate, but Thomas, who was brought in to be a between-the-tackles power runner, wasn't much better. Thomas' rushing DYAR was the worst of any running back this season, and while the team remains optimistic about his future, it might be wise to draft a potential alternative in the middle rounds.

This pretty much confirms my opinion of DT. I would be really pleased if we drafted Richardson.
 
I'm not trying to be an ***...but I believe posting an article, free or not, especially in it's entirety, is a punishable offense. I hate ESPN as the next guy, and I don't agree with this law either, but I believe the owners of this forum could be held liable for such things. Maybe a PM would have been better?
