The first two areas off strength I could see us picking one of each. Ol. WR
i feel Devante Parker is talented but falls into the Saquan Barkley , Christian Macaffery mold,
can be great but always hurt, it would.not bother me to move on from him and his salary.

Gil refers to day 3, highly unlikely Miami will find a player close to Parker’s talent in the later rounds.

Parker’s salary next year is $5.65 mil and a $.5 mil roster bonus and cutting him results in $5.4 mil dead cap.

I am all for Miami signing or drafting WRs that improve the unit, but keep Parker next year. The possible reward is greater than the risk.

Nah. Gil speaks of the overall strength of the draft class. Particularly in WR and OL.

So much so, he expects lots of good players in those units to still be available to pick in R3.

When you have a shot at a touted QB from Pitt...

Did you miss the part where Chris Grier is one of the all time worst OL draft talent evaluators?

Or maybe the part that we haven’t drafted an OL player outside of the 1st round who performed at “average” level since Samson Satele - 12+ years ago.

Miami should keep Parker cause his contract is not expensive and should (over) pay OL in free agency because we lack the talent as an organization to identify good OL prospects from the draft.

Possibly. Or maybe it’s the lack of coaching? Austin Jackson looked much better straight into his rookie year with minimal Dolphin coaching.

With a full offseason of Dolphin coaching he looks horrible. Think about that.

Oh I definitely agree coaching is a big issue. I was hopeful for these guys after year 1 cause I thought this was McKenzie and Allen’s work, not Chris Grier.

Chris Grier has shown he can’t draft OL, and I’m not talking about last years guys only, or really at all.

Perhaps Grier can outsource the drafting of OL to us here at Finheaven???
