I believe these players would make us much better.
Offense:
Runningback: Derrick Henry(NFL Rushing Title)
Fullback: Derrick Watt( Great Fullback)
O-Line:Brandon Scherff(RG-LG)and Jack Conklin(RT)

Defense:

Defense Line: Yannick Ngakoue, Jadeveon Clowney both Defense Ends.
Linebacker: Dante Fowler Jr.
Defense Backs: Byron Jones and Justin Simmons.
Cuts: Albert Wilson and Reshad Jones.

And now i add my Mock draft that you all know.
  1. R1P5
    QB TUA TAGOVAILOA
    ALABAMA

    R1P18
    OT JEDRICK WILLS
    ALABAMA

    R1P25
    OT ALEX LEATHERWOOD
    ALABAMA

    R2P5
    C CREED HUMPHREY
    OKLAHOMA

    R2P30
    RB D'ANDRE SWIFT

    R3P5

    GEORGIA

    R4P38
    S RICHARD LECOUNTE
    GEORGIA

    R5P18
    CB ERIC STOKES

It was not easy to cut Reshad Jones but his injuries caught up to him. I like Isiah Ford he should be kept over Albertt Wilson.

Oline could look like this

LT: Alex Leatherwood
LG:Brandon Scherff
C:Creed Humphrey
RG:Jedrick Willis(Kick him inside to learn from Conklin)
RT:Jack Conklin

This offensive line would get us the best protection for our Qb and our Rb would run wild Swifft and Henry would be a great 1-2 Punch. Solomon Kindley needs time to develop he would start in year 2 after conklin contract is up.

Roster:

Offense:

QB: Tua, Rosen, Fitzmagic( He might retire i think)
HB: Swifft, Henry, Gaskin
FB: Derrick Watt( Chandler Cox will be cut in that instance)
WR: DVP, Preston Williams, Jakeem Grant, Isiah Ford, Allen Hurns and Hodgins.
TE: Gesicki, Smythe, Walford or UDFA
OT: Leatherwood, Willis, Davis and Davenport
OG: Kindley, Scherff, Deiter and Calhoun
OC: Humphrey and Kilgore

Defense:

DE: Clowney, Ngakoue, Charlton and Harris( He came along last game he might prove himself as a contributor next year as Sub DE.
DT: Wilkins, Godcheaux, Sieler
LB: Raekwon, Jerome Baker, Andrew Van Ginkel, Dante Fowler Jr , Sam Eguavon
CB: X-Factor, Byron Jones, Needham, Stokes, Wiltz , Holmes, Aikens (ST)
FS: Mccain and Lecounte
SS: Eric Rowe and Justin Simmons

Special Teams: Jason Sanders (K), Matt Haack (P) and Pepper as (LS)


This would be my 53.

All Rookies left will be on the Practice Squad.

I can see where you’re going with this. Over the last few weeks it has become quite evident that our lines need serious upgrading. Our QB is continuously scrambling due to a lack of protection and too many QBs have had too much time to throw passes against our dline.

We’ve got loads of picks and cap space and I see your list as the following analogy:

I’m loaded with cash and walk into a sweet store. I want everything but while I’m loaded, I don’t have enough money to buy the entire store or mostly all the expensive sweets. I have to compromise and pick wisely as once the money has gone, that’s what i’ll Be left with. Plus not every sweet I want may not be available in the store......

i like most those FA you choose , all expensive aswell am hoping these a bit less tho?? [i doubt it tho] ,
give me matt judon, andrus peat or joe thuney , james bradberry, tre boston or vonn bell , joe schobert ,danny shelton
dont like any OT FA !! and we need 2 !
 
I know we are loaded with cash but I’d rather not overpay too much for any one guy in free agency. Guys rarely live up to those huge contracts and we aren’t a contender yet.

Brandon Scherff is probably going to be the highest paid guard. Clowney and Yannick are going to get huge deals as well most likely.

If this team really wants to get good the upcoming drafts are far more important than free agency.

you really lost me when you have Walford listed on the roster. Have you been watching the games??? And honestly, I think Henry is the bomb, he’s awesome but I’m not spending big money on a RB going into his second contract. Now way, draft em and use and abuse them.
 
Joe Thuney is the most likely OL to come here because of the Pats connection.

Id rather pay a decent salary to a quality player who does his job, than an elite one who i have to pay everything to, then doesnt live up to it.

Its obvious we struggle on OL, and DL. Our pass defense didnt look bad against Brady, and our pass offense made a top defense look bad.

If we can get a guard like Thuney instead of Scherff, and a good DE instead of an elite one, the draft should fix the rest.

As for Tua, im not a fan but aww shucks, i guess it doesnt hurt to pick him and let him sit all year. We have three first rounders.

Obvious you put some thought into this. Very interesting. Not practical or probable though. Would like to see a realistic version from you.

Maybe a pessimist but don’t see the Fins fixing every issue in one offseason.
 
Doesn't seem realistic. That's a lot of cap going to free agents leading to a short window like the Giants in 2016 before the team goes through another mini rebuild.

Out of that list I would target Watt, the Olinemen and then maybe Yannick Ngakoue.

Draft a RB. Please don't waste money on a position that the draft pumps out quite a bit of good to great players.

Byron Jones is a good corner. Watched him in Dallas for about every game. While he can shadow a WR very well he can't locate/track a football. With the money he'll get on the open market, to me it's an easy pass on paying another corner top money.

Clowney already made it clear that he didn’t want to come to Miami to play for the Dolphins. So I don’t see him wanting to play for them now. I think he will either be franchised by the Seahawks or more likely he will sign a long term contract with them.

Yes he did say that but you’re also leaving out he believed Miami wasn’t serious about winning and we we’re tanking for a QB. I don’t believe it would happen but let’s make sure we add context on why he didn’t want to come here.
