After the way the offense played Monday night, there is an awful lot of talking about picking this player up, and dropping this player. WTF is wrong with you guys? So Braylon has a good game after a year on hiatus and all of a sudden miami needs a #1 WR? I could understand if miami was losing, or even if miami still couldn't pass. I would think after Henne's performance, it would show our WR core is not as bad as you guys are making them out to be.

Now on the defensive side of the ball...that's where we need help. Miami needs a Free Safety, BADLY. They also need ILB's. And they also need to figure out how to pressure the QB and create more turnovers and create 3 and outs. Granted they did ok on monday night, besides those two fake punts. They still have a lot of work to do. I'd love to see the defense step up, or someone come in and lead the defense.

Here's my biggest problem with the defense...THEY ARE NOT ON THE FIELD THAT LONG!!!! There is no reason they shouldn't be causing more havoc. I know they are doing great at stopping the run, but that's just not good enough, imo.
 
Our secondary and dline are very young, there going to continue to get better and this off-season we are definitley going to address linebacker position.

our safties are not young though, that's the weak point in our secondary. Them and will allen. lol I think the dline is doing great. they are doing their job, which in a 3-4 is to cover their gaps. The biggest problem is the pass defense...it's just not there. the two guys that are supposed to be superstars are nonexistant, taylor and porter...

use our first pick on Spikes and then trade crowder and a 2nd and a future pick to move back up and get McClain HOW SICK WOULD THAT BE

Spikes and McClain blocking up the middle can you say NASTY...because i think our answer to our FS problem is in our backups the D would be epic
 
We better start playing Cam Wake much more than this. He's gonna put pressure on QBs for sure...
 
Our LB's have done nothing all year. We have the names in Porter and Taylor but how many tackles as a group do these 4 have each game? How can a LB in a whole game have zero tackles? Ayodele is a backup at best and Crowder talks a big game but he runs past the play way more than he makes one. Wilson is just awful at safety. Allen is getting picked on but you have to fix the LB's - that is just bad play there. I'm surprised because that should be a BP team strength.
 
I dont feel Miami can go into the offseason with just defense on their minds. Teams will have lots of film to study of Henne and the WR's. Miami has to add speed to the Offense if it hopes to keep up in the NFL. I think Miami can live with what they have at OLB. There are some younger players that should be able to step in. ILB on the other hand really needs some help. The issue is what to do about Crowder. New contract and all. I dont think he has any trade value and just letting him go may be to expensive cap wise. What has happen to Bell this year? He has play so well in the past. Wilson should be benched. I dont know what his issue is as well. His play has really smelled.

Speed where? at WR? Miami already has Ginn for speed. You should ask Al Davis how his speedy offense is doing. lol

Yes, But that is the Raiders. Speed at WR and at TE would really help the fish. Nothing will help the Raiders except maybe them trading Al Davis to the Jets.
 
from what i heard wilson has never played ss always been a fs so why not move him to fs and move bell to ss unless bell can't play ss i don't know?

The guy can't tackle and he can't cover. Not sure where other than the bench you can hide him. This FO has done really well in the draft and pretty bad in FA. Smiley is the one big bright spot.
 
We need to revamp our linebacker core, its the most important position in the 3-4.

I agree 100 percent we still could use a guy like offenseive takle Russell Okung who is and will be better then Veron Carey.


i would say te, wr , and oline and if we have any more injuries at tailback then we may need one more back thru the draf tor f/a

but i think we still need to get more presure of the qb and we definately need two more secondary guys.

I would say 2 lkinebackers 2 safeties , and 1 cb

on offense i would probally go for another tightend , og or ot and 21 more wr.:up:

If Miami Offense continues to play the way they have been playing, and the Dolphins defense is able to pick it up, even a little bit more, Miami will not even get a wiff of Spikes.
