The o-line as a unit was the most improved unit this year. That being said, it will have a few new players next year. Most people here want the big names FA, like Hutchinson and LeCharles Bentley, here but although we have the cap room I see Saban spending the beig money on other positions. From what we have seen so far this year it is safe to especulate that the LT and C positions (although McKinney played much better this year) are areas that needed improvement. McKinney got hurt and is a FA next year. Hadnot play at center has not been too bad. I believe that he is better suited for that position because he is a vocal leader, will not get pushed back, and at C his false starts penalties will be eliminated. Now if he stays at center then we need a RG who would come in and take his place. Here are 5 FA names that might be signed for a reasonable amount of money:
1. Toniu Fonoti (25 years old, 6'4, 360). He is out for the year with a groin injury, and has had severe weight issues. But when healthy and his weight down, this guy is a beast. He is a UFA, and Coach H knows him very well.
2. Jonathan Goodwin (27 years old, 6'3 320). He is a UFA from the Jets and can play LG, C, and RG.
3. Kris Dielman (24 years old, 6'4, 310). Although he is a RFA, coach H knows him well and word is that he likes him a lot. The Phins mat try to snatch him from the Chargers.
4. Reggie Wells (25 years old, 6'4 320). He is also a RFA, but as a 2 year started at Arizona he will be another G that the Dolphins may target.
5.Terrence Metcalf (27 years old, 6'3 320). This 3rd draft pick in 2002, has been a started for 2 years and although he has has some injuries when healthy his play has been pretty good.
The tacke position is one that I believe it will be addressed in the draft. Anthony Alabi has been mentioned as a starter next year, but due to the fact that he has not been healthy all this season they will bring another young LT to challenge him for the LT spot. Here are 5 posible candidates that may slide to the second rd:
1. Jeremy Trueblood (6'8, 325 lbs) from Boston college.
2. Eric Winston (6'7, 320 lbs) from University of Miami.
3. Marcus McNeill (6'9, 340 lbs) can play LT and RT, from Auburn.
4. Andrew Whitworth (6'7, 325 lbs) could move to RT, from LSU.
5. Derryn Colledge (6'5, 305 lbs) a lil. undersized but plays strong, Boise St.
