Awesome updates on the Dolphins Needs & Wants this off season..........

The "awesome" article didn't even rate WR in the top 5 needs of the team. Maybe the writer doesn't understand the team needs as well as some Finheaven contributors.

They mention Corner as a need then say it can be filled with Jamar Taylor or Will Davis. How is it a need when we have the players to fill it while we need receivers.
 
Unfortunately they look like they are a flop especially when coyle was to be a DB guru...... And these guys apparently haven't flourished.......
 
I still have plenty of faith in Jamar Taylor, but he fits in the slot too. I'd like to sign a solid FA across from Grimes and play Taylor in the slot. If Taylor has a great year we can move on from Grimes assuming the FA is solid. I'd go after Culliver personally.

So....you have faith in a guy who's never been healthy on the NFL level yet? He's shown us nothing. I'm not saying he's a bad player because the very few times he's taken the field he can hold his own, but to put faith in him especially how thin we are there? No way. We need to sign a starter. I'll give Taylor another year to prove he can stay on the field before I put my "faith" on the line with him.
 
I mean the start of this article was pretty ****ty.

First he lists LB as our "top" priority . . . ok, I can live with that statement. Yet he lists a bunch of 3-4 OLBs as the top free agents, and then says he'd love to draft Shaq Thompson . . . a guy suited to play where Jenkins is and also a guy who could be better suited at 2 other positions (RB and Safety). Have we not watched Dion Jordan for 2 years . . . oh yea thats right we have not, because the dude can barely see the field due to the scheme fit and what we are asking him to do.

Then like others have pointed out, he did not list WR as a priority. It was a priority before yesterday, it damn sure is now. I don't think people realize, you have a QB entering his "fourth season" and people are murmuring about $100 million contract . . . you gotta get this kid some weapons on the field and continue to allow this kid to grow and get better. We can't afford to watch Tannehill take steps back in his 4th season. He's not carrying this team by himself, he is not Dan Marino, and even Marino always had quality WRs on the outside. You go into this season with Landry and Matthews as top guys, I have a problem with that.

He calls Odrick a tweener, I mean thats a little unfair. What Odrick does best is DT in a 4-3 and that is what we run. . . . Dion Jordan is the definition of a tweener. He does ask for Shelton, but he isn't dropping that far.

He doesn't think we need to spend top dollar on a free agent guard, and I wish we wouldn't . . . but I'm about to commit elite money to my QB, I need to make sure that I feel comfortable knowing if I surround this kid with talent on his offensive line and at the skill positions, that he has the intangible ability as a leader and as a player to get my team to where we want to be. I don't learn that by short changing him on pieces in 2015.

Safety on this list over WR, thats a bit puzzling . . . although it certainly is a need, I'm hoping we resign Louis Delmas, and rely in some young guys as depth . . . . Thomas/Kovacs/Aikens

I dunno, just not a great article to me, but always appreciate the reads from outside opinions.

So we'd play Jenkins at SLB? Brilliant. That's exactly what our run D needs.

I agree with this, you can't trust in Jamar Taylor for anything right now. With Grimes getting up in age, you are hoping he grooms into a solid replacement for him while at the same time continuing to address the position. Lord help us if Taylor and Davis becomes studs and we draft another stud and we actually have a "problem of too much depth at CB" . . . . in this league you need 4 solid CBs on your team.
 
I'm with you guys. Not an awesome article at all. We could get a better one off of bleacher report
 
How bout Antonio cromartie opposite grimes. Wouldn't break the bank but probably not a philbin guy
 
you can never, never, never, have enough cb talent. the way our guys go down, FA and draft will likely address that position depending on what we do with finnegan, and I think he'll be gone.
