Pass Rusher Melvin Ingram visiting Dolphins

[The Ghost]

Do it.

 

[circumstances]

That LB group still concerns me. As long as we don't play a strong running team i suppose!

Yup.

We need much better edge play than Van Noy (I still have nightmares of Denver running the same play over and over and just destroying him).

And we need B. McKinney to be B. McKinney.

Roberts was a really weak link in that regard. His whole game is run forward into a gap and hope something is there... when it is, he looks good, when it isn't... he has no answer, no recovery strategy.
Baker is a good cover guy, and springs the occasional sack/ behind the line run stop, but he's light and easily to block when a lineman gets their hands on him.
... We improved on Roberts with McKinney, and the Scarlett/Riley signings should help too. I'm hopeful here. We brought in one slightly faded star and two solid vets... that should help.

It's probably the next unit to get some major help in the draft/offseason.

For now, it's not terrible but you did a good job highlighting some strengths and weaknesses there. I am very interested to see how McKinney fares in this defense.

RB, C, LB are my early needs. But obviously will update throughout season as the team shakes out.

My guess...bye bye Grant hey there Ingram

Grant.........paycut agreement, or BYE....?

I believe he is gone. I've thought that all off season. I think Grier is trying to trade him, otherwise straight cut.

Sounds about right.

I also think Miami needs a more traditional 3/4 DE for the rotation.

 

[DuderinoN703]

Sounds about right.

Miami has needed that for a few years now.

Miami has needed that for a few years now.

Depending on what the team decides to do with Ogbah, I could see pass rusher as the main target.

Look at that 92 yard TD pass that he dropped against Cincinnati and tell me if you would want him back,

Maybe we are waiting until June 1 to make a cost effective cut or two to the roster to free up some cash to sign Melvin Ingram.
