Jason Lieser‏Verified account @JasonLieser 16m16 minutes agoDolphins GM Chris Grier says they're still talking to Kenny Stills. "Hopefully we'll get something done. It's been good dialogue."

Chris Mortensen‏Verified account@mortreport
Saints WR Brandin Cooks is the object of trade talks with the Titans and Eagles identified as two interested suitors, per league sources.

If Eagles land Cooks, their free agent interest in Kenny Stills might fade.

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 12m12 minutes ago
Chris Grier says right now, Koa Misi is in their plans. Also said that Ryan Tannehill will be ready for the offseason program.

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 12m12 minutes ago
Grier also disagreed with the premise that the Dolphins and Stills are far apart on money.

Grier said "in the first two rounds, you always have to take the best player."

Grier said he anticipates Reshad Jones participating in the full offseason program.

Ryan Tannehill and Reshad Jones expected to be ready for spring activity

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 9m9 minutes ago
Grier was optimistic about getting an extension done with Reshad.

Miami Dolphins trying to get extension done w Reshad Jones ASAP

Jason Lieser‏Verified account @JasonLieser · 9m9 minutes ago
Dolphins sound closer to an extension on Reshad Jones than Jarvis Landry.

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 7m7 minutes ago
Grier: "We've got a lot of needs on defense right now."

Terrence Fede was mentioned second by GM Chris Grier when asked about Miami Dolphins DE depth
(That's not good)

Chris Grier on Ryan Tannehill’s knee: He’s fine. He’s good.

Armando Salguero‏Verified account @ArmandoSalguero · 6m6 minutes ago
University of Miami TE David Njoku was measured with an 82 1/2-inch wingspan at the NFL combine. Slightly less than a 747 airliner.

Adam Gase says Laremy Tunsil has to stay healhy and DeVante Parker has to be on time. We love Adam Gase’s candor.

Joe Schad‏Verified account @schadjoe · 3m3 minutes ago
Adam Gase says Leonte Carroo has to be ready if Kenny Stills departs

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 3m3 minutes ago
Gase points to linebacker as a way to improve the run defense.

Joe Schad‏Verified account @schadjoe · 3m3 minutes ago
Adam Gase says Jordan Phillips needs to be ready to play more than 25 snaps a game

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 3m3 minutes ago
Phillips "knows" he has to get his snaps up in 2017, Gase said.

Mike Clay‏Verified account@MikeClayNFL
Gase didn't exactly talk Leonte Carroo up as a replacement for Stills. Appears they're looking to address that WR 3 spot.

Armando Salguero‏Verified account @ArmandoSalguero · 3m3 minutes ago
Armando Salguero Retweeted Mike Clay
Yeah, um, Adam Gase is not a big fan of Leonte Carroo. Carroo healthy scratch last three games of the season.

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 3m3 minutes ago
Gase on Stills returning: "One day I feel great, one day I feel like crap about it. I hate free agency."

Adam Gase says perception of Ryan Tannehill changed more outside than inside

Joe Schad‏Verified account @schadjoe · 1m1 minute ago
Adam Gase says he’s not concerned about Ryan Tannehill’s mobility. Shortest Gase answer ever.

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 2m2 minutes ago
Gase said he's not at all concerned about Tannehill's mobility in 2017. Feels comfortable in the brace.

Joe Schad‏Verified account @schadjoe · 44s44 seconds ago
Mario Williams went through a lot of personal things Adam Gase said.

Armando Salguero‏Verified account @ArmandoSalguero · 52s52 seconds ago
Adam Gase confirms my report that Ryan Tannehill is set to go, will play 2017 with brace on left knee.

Joe Schad‏Verified account @schadjoe · 39s39 seconds ago
Adam Gase watched Jordan Cameron Cleveland tape often to see what Gase may have been doing wrong

Joe Schad‏Verified account @schadjoe · 1m1 minute ago
Cam Wake’s role seems more destined for pass rush role if at all possible. Still a starter.

Adam Beasley‏Verified account @AdamHBeasley · 1m1 minute ago
Gase on Cam Wake in 2017: "We want him to be our starter."

I've been told #17 will be more of a pocket passer going forward. That doesn't mean he can't run, just might not as much. Still can move.

Gase on free agency: "We don't want to be big spenders."
(I hope the organization is listening to him)

Can tell how the Dolphins' season ended really haunts Gase.

Sounds like we may not be completely focused on defense in the first two rounds.

Also, it looks like Isa Adbul-Quddus may not be back from injury. Another hole in the defense.
 
Glad that the organization is keeping its word and working to keep Jones. Another step in the right direction of rebuilding the damaged culture of this organization. Get Landry extended and show our commitment to developing and retaining our talent. It creates a culture where players want to come be a part of.

We need to focus on Jones and Landry which i'm sure will get done. I really hope we don't overpay for Stills.
We have two big time receivers who will need extensions soon..I do trust Grier and Gase.
Phins Up!!!

Smart man!! It's happening already. I talk to college players and more than ever they want to come to Miami.
I've been getting autographs for a living for years before becoming a medic. Quincy Wilson CB from the Gators told me he wants to come play in Miami for Gase.
The players love him apparently. I just thought that was nice to hear that players are pumped to play in Miami again!!

Grier said "in the first two rounds, you always have to take the best player."

Interestingly enough, and coming from an organization that knows how to build through the draft, Seattle GM John Schnieder said in his PC yesterday that in this day and age you have to draft for need.

It's a mixture of both, and they all know it.

This is a talented safety draft. Wonder if that could mean a safety in round 1 or round 2. If Miami is talking BPA it certainly could be a safety at #22. Admittedly, that would be a surprise to me with defensive end and linebacker such glaring needs.
 
Gase: "I hate free agency."

That's an interesting statement. I have a love/hate relationship with it as well. Take a player like Kenny Stills. His career took off last year under Gase and he wants to stay in Miami. But, with the talent the Dolphins have at wide receiver and his contract potentially reaching $12 million per year the odds seems small. We can hate the player for leaving, but wouldn't we all do the same unless the "home town" discount is close.

Free agency means you lose players and that's hard. It's essentially a little bit like trades in baseball, but trading salaries rather than players. The $12 million that Stills might get could be allocated to a couple of defensive players or maybe a top guard.

Gase saying the team doesn't want to "be big spenders" is how I hope Miami navigates free agency. The Branch signing last year was the type of deal I hope the team continues to find --- a player who hadn't yet reached his potential at a modest salary. Find a couple of those every year and use the comp picks the way New England does to build through the draft.
 
Awesome job putting everything together. ****, that's a better job than Bleacher Report.

I wonder what Kenny's REAL price tag is for us. Hopefully the Titans sign Alshon and the Eagles land Cooks.
 
What has been the biggest issue with Carroo? learning the playbook or just lack of effort?

he was the fourth receiver on a team that doesn't go four wide a lot.

he didn't play special teams.

that led to being inactive as a rookie on occasion.
 
Sounds like Carroo is headed for another red shirt season.

I understand why Gase wants to lock up Stills or add another #3. No way this defense gets magically turned around in one offseason. The offense is going to be relied upon heavily this season. Stills is a key component. People get up in arms hearing the annual numbers but it's all about the guaranteed as usual. The jury still has two years on Parker. Take care of Landry at some point in the next year. Still plenty of money left for a LB and a G.

He was inactive the last three games of the season. I would not be surprised to see Rashawn Scott pass him on the depth chart next year and not just because of special teams.
