Not to mention the protection should be better, not just with the additions of Moreno, Albert and James but Sims and Miller should be better too. And unlike most I think Tannehill does have decent pocket presence, he regressed last season but I expect him to be much improved at avoiding sacks on his own.
The protection will be better.
The weapons are better.
Tannehill should show some progression.
Lazor's supposedly a master at perfecting the QB sneak, picking up a yard should be much improved.
Sturgis will show why he was the first kicker taken as he was hurt most of last season.
And Lazor should bring a less predictable game plan to the table at the very least.
So I'm predicting a major increase in offensive production, like a jump from bottom 5 to top 10 isn't out of the question. And I'm predicting Tannehill will be top 5 in yards.
There is heavy action on the under for the Dolphins and I predict there is gonna be a lot of disappointed gamblers. People are betting with their (still broken) hearts and not with their heads.
I think it is a major reach at this point to say the protection will be better. It is simply an unknown at this time. It could be better, but it could also be worse, as scary as that sounds.
In all honesty, if you took the projected starters last year at the start of training camp (not knowing their eventual performance) and the projected 5 this year, last year's squad would be deemed more talented overall.
4 of the 5 projected starters on the OL right now are major question marks, with only the 2 tackles with any kind of pedigree. Compare to last year at this time with an all-pro C, a guard coming off a pro bowl, a young LT that looked decent the prior year, and a "solid" vet in Clabo. Unfortunately, that all turned to **** very quickly, but that's the way things looked at this time last year.
