Just Clarification on Miami FA Rumors

[ChambersWI]

Just putting a list together of the most consistent rumors for Miami.

1.Miami does want to add another DE. Most likely is William Hayes. Hayes is familiar with our LB coach Matt Burke from their time in Tennessee. If Hayes goes elsewhere (he does want to be a starter) Miami could look at Jeremy Mincey or Robert Ayers. But the belief is Hayes is the top target.

2.Even with wanting to add another DE, the top 2 targets for Miami are two of Vance Joeseph's favorite players from Cincy; Adam "Pacman" Jones and George Iloka. Iloka is expected to be pursued by the Vikings and Lions as well.

3. Miami wants to add at least one starting guard and has had initial contact with Alex Boone, JR Sweezy, Jeff Allen, and Geoff Schwartz, Boone played for our new OL coach and is probably our favorite. Schwartz has openly campaigned to be signed.

4.Even with getting Kiko Alonso, Miami does want to add another LB. Vincent Rey from Cincy is considered one target

5. Vance Joseph wants more "dogs" on the defense.

I am ALL IN on Iloka. We should make him a top priority, since he is considered the top FA Safety this year.

Failing that, I would like to see us go after Dashon Goldson hard.

More "dogs" on defense

Tannenbaum will have to de Philbinize half of the team.

Dolphins need AT LEAST 2 starting guards and a tackle -Albert is not reliable.

One starting guard puts us right back where we have been here in dolphin land for 2 decades or more NFL HELL!

 

[BennySwella]

Better "dogs" than the little "bitches" we've had.

The priority should be a guard. Unless we fix that spot nothing else will matter. I beliene ee need another DE and corner before we need a safety

Ozzy rules

I said before and I hold to it, that I had hoped we would sign one top-tier G (Mathis?) and two mid-tier Gs. And go heavy on the Ts/Gs in UDFA time.

Mathis was the #1 G last year, when I hoped we'd sign him as a FA. He didn't have any crystal ball to know that a team (the Donks) that got blown out so horribly one year would win a SB the next, so we should have had an even shot at him, or paid slightly above market if necessary. This year, he's the #2 G on the market. What more does aa guy have to do to get tBaum's attention?!

Better "dogs" than the little "bitches" we've had.

The guys we had were a direct reflection of the confluence of two horrid factors: Jeff Ireland's incompetence, and Joe Philbin's timidity.

 

[DefensiveEnd76]

We need to get the damn o-line fixed once and for all. I don't care if we have to sign 20 linemen. GET IT FIXED!!!

 

[Danny]

We don't need 20 olinemen....just the right 5 starters and 4 back ups

Ozzy rules

I say sign two starting guards like Boone and Sweezy and use the draft to build our defense plus Miller's replacement

I ain't no mathematician but.. how do we afford all these vet contracts? I don't understand how we're not plunging ourselves deep into cap hell...

No guaranteed money on the Eagles players helps. Unsure of what's going on with Mario Williams though.

There's a lot of misinformation floating around but wasn't it already mentioned Maxwell had his contract re-negotiated which certainly means some of it was guaranteed. I don't know this just seems such an untenable and historically disastrous approach to team building.

the money should have gone to Osemele. With the OG's you listed, I would take Boone and Sweezy, the younger ones. But Miami being Miami, im sure they'll go old and get richmond webb
