Looks like Thomas will be cut which is the right move

[Danny]

The Miami Herald's Barry Jackson expects the Dolphins to release Julius Thomas in the offseason.

It's pretty much a lock. Thomas is under contract at a $6.5 million salary in 2018, the final year of his deal, but the Dolphins can clear all of that and and a $100K workout bonus off the books by cutting the tight end. His first year in Miami after a spring trade has mostly been a disappointment. Thomas is only 29, but he has the body of a 39-year-old who is going on 49. There isn't much left.

No big news here but man have we been lacking a real TE for so long. Last time we had a real pro bowl TE was Keith Jackson?

Ozzy rules!!

 

['Deep]

Fine by me

 

[Fintastic2124]

Pleeeaaase do it

 

[Bumpus]

I was disappointed by his acquisition in the first place.

Seemed like Gase really tried to get him involved for a few stretches this year. But he’s clearly not the athlete he once was. Goo-bye. Gimme Mark andrews.

Kiko should help him pack his bags. Godawful. Both of them

 

[hoops]

Well I hope they replace it with something nfl ready out the gate as a flex

They don’t grow on trees

 

[kingfin23]

Nice, Im happy about this.

 

[Bob512]

I was actually hopeful with this acquisition when it happened.....but he does look like he is 49 years old and played like it.

Time to move on.....

 

[Danny]

He does move like he's way older than his age. I don't know whatever happen to him but ever since he left Denver is been downhill. I'm hope we draft a TE in the first 3 rounds

Ozzy rules!!

We need a TE who has some speed and can get down the seam. We have a couple of TEs in Thomas and Fasano who have the speed of a snail.

 

[ANUFan]

This team really needs to add a potent TE in the mix.

 

[Dolphins81]

Well bye! Don’t let the door hit you in the ass!

 

[Michael Scott]

Excellent. Draft a TE with speed and athleticism.

Seems unlikely to happen this off-season. I think we will go out there and look for a value player, based on what's going to be available and what our resident draft guys have been saying about this class.
