How the Miami Dolphins choose to upgrade their offensive unit this offseason will be a critical chapter in this era of the team. Miami saw great returns in their efforts to overhaul the defense thi…

I think he played well last year. Unless they can upgrade from Karras in the draft or free agency, resigning him makes sense because they don’t have a better option at the center position on the roster at this time.

Good he’ll make a great backup to Creed Humphrey.

I would like to see them draft Humphrey in the 2nd round but depending on how long the contract they are going to offer Karras is for. They might be leaning toward filling others holes on the roster if they do resign Karras for more than one year.

makes obvious sense...

i would only give him a 1 year deal, and hopefully we draft a guy that can unseat him as starter

We are drafting a receiver more likely.

this. And I’d prefer the draft pick be something that can also play guard or has in college.

im cool with one year $3-$4 mil for karras. If it’s $8 mil bye

Makes a lot of sense on multiple levels. Hopefully we will draft someone who can learn from the guy. Great team dude who is pretty serviceable. A two year deal would be right up our alley. One year he helps the young dude learn the ropes as rook develops, the next year he backs him up. That's an ideal situation, at least I think so.

Injuries do suck. Having someone reliable is a huge plus.

 

[Retnuhrace]

Ideally he’s a backup. He did allow some pressures towards the end of the season, but he’s still a good player for leadership purposes

 

[Kev7]

Can never have enough depth on the OLine, bring him back

 

[Beach Bum]

I can understand resigning him just in case we aren't able to replace him. However, I am really hoping for an upgrade here.

Unless you think Deiter could work in a pinch, that's a dangerous game to play.

Free agency is before the draft, so if you let him walk, without signing another vet, you don't have a lot of options, if the guy you draft is not ready day one.

 

[FanEnSpain]

This doesnt mean we wont draft Humphrey or Meyers, it just means that Deiter failed lol
