MIAMI Offensive line was enough of a problem for the Miami Dolphins before a pair of injuries hit them in their 31-6 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

Jesse Davis, who began the game at left tackle, went down with an elbow injury after just 20 snaps. Danny Isidora, who started at right guard, lasted just 30 before suffering a likely season-ending foot injury.

Now the Dolphins stare down their third different starting offensive line combination just four weeks into the season. While Davis practiced in a limited capacity all week and is questionable for Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers in Miami Gardens, Isidora's injury means the Dolphins are looking for a new starting right guard.


 
I keep thinking of that knee Mikah would be traced to Pitt for maybe a top ten pick. I wonder if they would have not traded tunsil. That pick will be in the 20s. They couldn’t see future about Fitzpatrick but I wonder if that would have changed their plans

there was no way to turn that offer down for Tunsil
 
Saying the phins oline is shaky is analogous to saying Venezuela’s economy is shaky

You must be forgetting they got TWO 1st round picks for Tunsil AND a 2nd.

Are you being serious right now?

Even when the great Tunsil was here Miami was still one of the league leaders in sacks given up

... and a penalty machine. I think he had like 26 or 27 penalties while he was with us.

If him being here made a great difference in our protection then i would understand. But it's the philosophy of give me 5 OL guys that are solid to play as a unit vs. one great LT and all the other guys suck and can't really play as a unit.

The compensation for Tunsil is insane when you put it up against say the comp for Amari Cooper and/or Khalil Mack.

No matter how Tunsil turns out we took the Texans to the cleaner.
 
Regardless of how you feel about Minkah or Tunsil, Grier is showing his true colors early on. He has absolutely destroyed 2 organizations on the trade front with the return he has gotten. I hate how little talent we have but I also realize these players would not have mattered in the long run.
