Well, I'm not paying much to resign, but I don't mind letting the new staff have a look.

 

[Travis34]

Will he sign on as purely a special teamer? If so sure

 

[John813]

Walk. He's just a special teams player, something Poling can do for dirt cheap.

I forgot about him. Give him a shot I suppose

Vet minimum, perhaps with incentives. Not sure I would consider him as part of the solution.

Youth movement. Baker, McMillan, Poling, other lower draft and undrafted players fighting for specials and backup. Kiko?????

I wish the writer would skip these guys . . . Asiata, Anthony, and the rest. My answer is the same for all. Not impressed, but keep them for an evaluation period under Flores hurts nothing. Maybe a real coaching staff can get the potential out of them. I expect most won't stick, but some may.

 

[Michael Scott]

If he's cheap I'd keep him strictly for special teams & depth.

 

[Geordie]

Yeah like others say, not worthy of a lot of debate but we do need bodies, preferably cheap and young, so he qualifies on that count.

This one seems pretty easy, cut. He is a guy who only made the Dolphins roster because of his former coach (Joe Vitt?) who was related to tour former coach Adam Gase. He wasn't good enough to earn a starting spot in a mediocre LB corps and doesn't fit the profile of a young guy who would be loyal to the new regime. I can't see him being on the roster come opening day.

 

[hoops]

Replace with another cheap vet option to be the 4tb or 5th lb

 

[Awsi Dooger]

Should have been gone prior to last season

 

[royalshank]

Weird he was a no 1 right?

 

[miamiron]

353 special teams snaps...second most on the team
He ain't going anywhere
