I pretty much all the moves done in free agency so far.. but for all the lack of playmakers and the cuts this roster is not better than it was 1 year ago
Thats a let down

I hope something will turn in the next couple of days

What playmakers did you want us to sign, where have they signed, and how much did they get paid?

Let's discuss "the ones that got away."
 
Golladay, Juju, Hilton, Fuller all still available. We only need one of them with the likelihood that we’re getting one of Chase/Smith/Waddle/Pitts in the draft.

Call me crazy, but I’m not gonna declare this roster worse than last years a mere 3 days into the new league year.

Miami could make their skill position groups look VASTLY different with a few minor moves:

- Keep Wilson and Hurns @WR. Both are pretty big upgrades over our #3 and #4 WR’s from a year ago.

- The opportunity to trade down is absolutely gonna be there. Miami should be able to move down a few spots, gain extra capital in this draft as well as next years, and still grab one of the players they want with their first pick. For the sake of argument, let’s say they trade down and end up with Pitts.

- Draft Bateman at 18- assuming he’s there of course.

- Draft a RB with our first pick in the 2nd round. I’m starting to believe Harris might still be available at that point.

None of these moves are earth-shattering or far fetched, and would make this Offense lightyears more talented than last years.

You really don’t understand what we’re trying to build here. You may wanna follow Tbaum and just let Grier do his job here. Some of these wannabe GMs are hysterical

I’m really glad you never threw your hat in the ring for the GM position

I wonder if Miami is still in on Golladay?

Hasaan Reddick for $6m and Curtis Samuel for $11m AAV are a couple moves I'd have been happy with that got done for other teams. In general edge rushers have gone for more than I was expecting, with Reddick being the exception. Not sure why Reddick got so much less than guys like Okwara and Henderson.

I think we will get our playmakers in the draft. The picks in the first two rounds have that potential. Grier is spending wisely.

If not spending is spending wisely, I agree with you. I am not someone who thinks that spending millions in free agency is the way to build a winning football team.
The Dolphins spent wildly in the 2020 free agent market and they still didn’t make the playoffs. Now they are basically left with Bryon Jones and Flowers from last years free agent signings and they are the two most overpaid players on the roster and neither of them played to the level that made them worth the money they were paid to sign with the Dolphins.

I will be surprised if any of the free agents they have signed so far in free agency will still be on the roster after next season but at least the Dolphins haven’t given these players the huge amount of money they basically wasted last year.

Who's gonna play Center?
If we dont get Andrews we're going to have to massively overdraft a center at terrible BPA value. Gotta have a fkn center
