Weather to keep Stills who's starting to be a deep threat for the team and Mathews the guy that has been quietly making plays. They are both going to be looking for long term deals at the end of the season, a cash strapped Miami team will have to make a tough decision.
 
Matthews can do more than Stills on a given play. He also has a better rapport with Tanne. If choosing between the two, I'll take Matthews.
 
Stills is a FA?

Well its a good thing we have Parker. In 1 year we could lose everyone but Landry and Cameron
 
Kenny Stills has two years left on his rookie contract. He's not going anywhere.

On the other hand, Rishard Matthews is a free agent after this season. And since he's on pace to have a 1,000+ yd season, he'll probably be very expensive to re-sign.

Next year, our starting WRs will likely be Kenny Stills, DeVante Parker, Jarvis Landry (slot).
 
I think we still have another years left on Stills' contract, no? I'd try to find a way to keep both players. Neither one of them is going to get a bank breaking offer (IMO), so it should be doable.

I don't think Rishard Matthews is experiencing fluke production right now. I think he can just play football.
 
keep both! i would hate to see matthews leave but i would understand if he did. we can cut alot of ties elsewhere and can free up money to sign him... i say we try
 
Mathews can ball. Philbin had him in the doghouse for too long. Philbin is a player development killer

I think this too, but I also think he never understood what he had. This goes for Parker as well.
 
I think it's worth pointing out that we don't need to get over excited about Matthews, or make him into anything he isn't. Right now he looks like a quality NFL starting wide receiver. That's what we want. We didn't draft him in the 7th round to be a star, we drafted him with the hope that he could develop into a quality starter.

We drafted Devante Parker to be a star.
 
Anyone willing to let Matthews walk at the drop of a hat hasn't been paying attention. Dude is reliable production this season and Tannehill likes him.
 
would be a shame to spend all the time developing matthews just to have him high tail it at the end of a probably not playoff year....
 
Stinks we basically got nothing out of Mathews during his rookie contract until this year.
 
I'd wait until the end of the year to make that determination. Still too early to know what Stills brings to the team. Matthews has been as consistent as Landry and he shows a good rapport with RT.
