Dolphins sign Earl Mitchell

[JKS4]

Vernon/Mitchell/Odrick/Wake would be an insanely athletic defensive line.

People are going to surprised how much Mitchell gets.

I have seen that several teams are interested in him.

 

[Los Dolfins]

....well all I can say is getting more "athletic" LBers didnt work out too good last year. An athletic DT/NT who's a bit light in the shorts is concerning when having to fight off blocks and tackle NFL running backs...just sayin

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

Give me big stout DT who can occupy 2 blockers anyday

 

[DolfanChris06]

I don't like the fact we our going to let starks leave

Chargers beat writer saying he most likely signs with us

Chargers very much in mix for Texans NT Earl Mitchell, per source. Dolphins appear to be, however, his most likely suitor.

An interesting combo would be this guy and Brandon Spikes. Spikes is a real thumper that can take on any G or C. This might give us the ability to have faster DTs and still defend the run. I can't recall any team trying this besides NE, and even their DTs were bigger than the duo we would have.

I would like to see Mitchell sign and a second tier wide body. The run defense will not get better until the LB's improve, however.

Earl Mitchell would be a good signing, but we would still need another DT for depth behind him and Odrick.

AJ Francis and Sutton/Barnett :d-day:

The former Texan I'd like is (TE) Owen Daniels. Mitchell would be decent but prefer L Joseph.

He's slower than a slug with poor with ethic. Pass.

Meanwhile, I can report this: The Dolphins are flying in DT Earl Mitchell for a visit tonight. Clearly top priority at that position.
