NFL Network: Odell Beckham Jr. Should Sign with Miami - Miami Dolphins

Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network said on Good Morning Football he believes the Miami Dolphins should sign Free Agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. To be clear, Tom Pelissero says he doesn’t think this will happen nor does he expect it to happen. But Tom believes the best landing spot for Odell...

At some point, yes. If those "quality WRs" are eating a lot of cap. If trading one of them for an elite pass rush. If they're all north of 30.
 
I argue that you cannot! Let's just sign 53 WR's that play other positions like QB, MLB, RB (just to name a few football positions)
 
Needs vs. Wants...

We still need a pass rusher or 2 and O-line help as well.
 
Depends how much of the cap they take up. I certainly wouldn't want 30% of the cap allocated to WR's nor would I support drafting a WR in the 1st round 3 straight years.

Talent-wise the answer to this seemingly rhetorical question is no.

Remember at the start of last season, everybody thought we were fine at WR? Look how that turned out. Waddle, Hill and Wilson have all missed time in either their collegiate (Waddle) or professional careers.
 
They're all prima donnas so yes, you can certainly have too many and they all think they should be scoring these $100M+ contracts too. So again, YES, you can have too many of them. If you do have a lot of them, you eventually won't because again, of the money they'll go elsewhere to earn.

No, Beckham doesn't need to be here.

And as far as what happened last year - that was on us. Quit giving money to unreliable players who are hurt more often than not. Then your receiver room will be OK.
 
I’d only bring in OBJ in a similar fashion to what the Rams did last year. If we’re off to a hot start and around mid season we’re contenders and getting good play from Tua, I’d think about adding him if he was still a FA. If things are clicking and the team is ready for a push then it might be a good idea to get him in the door, bring him along and have him settled in ready to contribute down the stretch. Just like the rams did.

I would not bring him in for camp though he’s a guy like DVP that excels when he’s being fed and playing well but when things are bad takes too many plays off and plays half speed. Don’t need that for the new offense install when camp comes around we have mouths to feed in Hill and Waddle for that. Make them happy then if the scenario above presents itself mid season I’d think about it
 
I answer the can you ever have too many quality receivers with a simple question and answer...

Are the receiver more about themselves then the team? :

If answer is yes, then the answer here is obviously also yes, you can have too many quality receivers.

If the answer is, no, whatever the teams needs of them, even if it means not seeing as many balls thrown their way at times, then a big no, never enough, bring them on until it becomes ridiculous.
 
To clarify, Tom did make it clear he absolutely did NOT expect OBJ to sign with Miami and that it was just his opinion it would be a good place for him to go.

Can you ever be really "set" at any position? With now 17 games in the RS and being on the verge of what should be a perennial playoff team moving forward, you're only as good as your second and sometimes third string..
