Dolphins release Kendall Fuller and Durham Smythe

[stillhardcore]

The players Grier has selected or traded for that cost multiple draft picks & a few other wasted picks... a tale of the Dolphins demise.



Tyreek trade = 1st, 2nd, two 4ths & a 6th.

Chubb trade = 1st & 4th

Ross tampering with Brady = 1st & 3rd

Jalen Wright = 3rd & 4th

Eichenburg = 2nd & 3rd

Waddle = two 1sts & 4th

Kindley = two 4ths

Curtis Weaver = 6th & 7th

Rosen = 2nd & 6th

Jeff Wilson = 5th

Chase Claypool = 6th

Igbo = 1st

Cam Smith = 2nd

Channing Tindal = 2nd

Ezukanma = 4th

Hunter Long = 3rd

Deiter = 3rd

Totals

1st rounders spent = 6
2nd rounders spent= 5
3rd rounders spent= 5
4th rounders spent= 8
5th rounders spent= 1
6th rounders spent= 4
7th rounders spent= 1

For a grand total of 30 draft picks spent on....






wait for it.....





















only TWO players that will be starting for the team in 2025, if Tyreek is traded and Chubb is cut.

I only disagree on Jeff Wilson. Good RB who knows how to follow his blockers. A mystery to me why he was not brought in more this past season to spell Achane. Grossly under-used asset.

4 guards: Rds., 1,2,3,4 Even Grier probably hits on one keeper going that route.

What surprises me (well, actually doesn’t and that’s the problem), is that we trade our 3rd rounder this year to draft Wright in the 4th last year, and he barely sniffed the field.

Ask McGenius why that happened? He seemed to to be stuck on Achane and like his play calling, his use of personnel is in question. That's why when family members get all excited about FA and the draft, will McGenius use them or just keep them on the sideline?

Fuller is a dumb release unless there is a better plan. That wasn't too bad a contract with no major cap relief.

I think they did him a solid so can sign on to another team. We do dum sht like that just because we can

 

[Springveldt]

Most likely not. And the Dead money thing makes me so mad. I mean, we just created another unnecessary hole. I mean, he wasn't the best but we didn't need to cut Fuller. Now what once was a minor need is a huge need. On top of everything else.

Grier literally does nothing right

If you want to get angry about dead money go and check this seasons playoff teams.

It didn’t hurt them.

I mean the 2024 season which I guess technically still hasn’t ended.

I’m sure a bunch of them had over $60M in dead cap.

KC had 226K of dead money only. Buffalo has 5.4mill. Ravens 8.6mill. Philly has 29mill of dead money tho most of that is two players. But Philly has drafted so well that they have a lot of good/great players with low/rookie deals.

I dont care about the playoff teams. I care about our team.

Is that for the upcoming 2025 season?

Buffalo in 2024…

Pretty sure lots more playoff teams had over $60M in dead cap.

Lol......

You do realize the implication of that statement?

 

[BrowardDolfan]

Why did we never use him in short yardage? He didn't seem that physical to me.

He's the mightiest of the mites. lol

5'10" 210lbs.

The Dolphins have gotten so small and light at the skill positions that 5'10" and 210 is considered "physical". Add on 10lbs or so and then we're beginning to to get into "physical" land.

 

[BrowardDolfan]

Lol......

Why try to emulate the methods of those who actually had success in the league? They're just trying to fool the Dolphins into thinking that's the right way to do things. The Dolphins will prove it is better to mismanage draft picks and be forced to rely on free agency.
