I understand we need help on the o-line and that is paramount. Kudos for addressing the LT need. We also addressed part of the secondary issue with Delmas. However, I still think that Miami has to look hard at a player like Hakeem Nicks because I am just not fully sold on Hartline as a number 2. Can he run the 10 yard curl or out or 5 yard slant? Yes. But that is about the only thing he can do consistently. He poses zero redzone threat. Even worse is that he doesn't have the speed to play the slot. Speaking of the slot, how will Gibson be coming back off the knee? It's a complete crap shoot.
Rumors have James Jones in the mix. They are just rumors at this point. There is an obvious connection here with Philbin. Is James Jones a true number 2 or a product of that monster offense in Green Bay? Who knows. That brings us full circle back to Nicks. An argument could be made that someone is going to overpay. It's free agency. EVERYONE overpays. The guy has the size for sure and I don't want to hear about how bad he was last year. The giants sucked big time last year. Another question is does Nicks play part time and doesn't give it his all. Surely for his size he should dominate. Not sure the answers here but I think we definitely should bring him in. Eric Decker even is worth looking at. He is what I think everyone wanted Hartline to be but I think Hartline has hit his ceiling and no further growth will be had.
Regardless , I understand we have bigger needs first but I think we need to bring some of these guys in. Always keep the fire burning under your own players butts and nothing says with a new GM that Miami is going to have to be loyal to previous contracts/promises. Now, ,is when you do your best to surround Tannehill with the absolute best offensive weapons you can. Everything rides on this kids progression at this point in the tenure.
