As long as left tackle Branden Albert is healthy, the Dolphins are set at three spots on their offensive line.
Albert, right tackle Ju’Wuan James and centerMike Pouncey will be starting for the Dolphins in September, but things are a lot less clear at guard. The team has several options to sift through, but it doesn’t look like any of them have left the rest of the team feeling too comfortable as they head toward training camp.
Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports that there’s “definitely concern” among Dolphins players about the fact that no one seized the opportunity to nail down a guard job during offseason work. Jackson adds that fourth-round pick Jamil Douglas has had some good moments, but it appears he, Billy Turner, Dallas Thomas and others will be battling it out well into camp.
Unless, of course, the Dolphins look outside the organization for more help. Evan Mathis would be a possibility if they decide to go that way, although there’s been a lot more chatter about interest in the former Eagle since his release than there’s been actual confirmation of it from any teams.
Anyone else concerned that we haven't addressed our biggest weakness the past 4 years????
