Though the Dolphins insist there's no decision, a lot of NFL people believe the Dolphins will move on from Mike Wallace, who appears resistant to a pay cut.

“Not surprising; he’s a proud guy,” one NFL source said.

That means unless the Dolphins surprisingly decide to keep him, Wallace would stand to be the latest high-end talent who isn’t a conformist to be jettisoned by Joe Philbin.

At his charity golf tournament last week, Jason Taylor shared an interesting perspective when I asked him whether Philbin would be wise to embrace more flamboyant personalities:

“Some guys want everyone to fall in line and hold hands and walk in a straight line,” Taylor said. “I like guys that can be disruptive on the field. Sometimes you are going to have personalities that come along with that….

“Often times those guys that have a little edge to them are great for the team. They push each other, keep the waters going. Calm water isn’t always great. You don’t need turds but you need guys that can ruffle feathers a little bit.”

Quick aside: It’s impressive to see what Taylor and Alonzo Mourning have continued to do with their philantrophic efforts since retiring.

Taylor --- whose foundation raises money to improve the lives of children --- would like to see the Dolphins address linebacker and cornerback but said: “I like a lot of things about the team. I love
the quarterback. There’s not a whole lot of guys in this league I would take over Tannehill. I’m very confident you can win with Ryan Tannehill. You can definitely win a championship with him.”

### On the running back front, the Dolphins will consider a multiyear deal with Lamar Miller later this offseason (not definite, but on the table as a possibility); very much like Damien Williams; have been non-committal with free agent Daniel Thomas; and gave no indication they want to keep LaMichael James.

Dont we have millers rights for 2 more years? An extension now would be assanine...pretty sure as a 4th rounder we own him 2 more years...thats just dumb to extend a rb after year 2...really dumb
 
Cut Wallace and Hartline, and go into the season with Jeremy Maclin and Davante Parker as the 1 and 2 receivers.

Very nice I like.

He's been here 3 years . . . so he is entering his final year. Similar to OV.
 
Miller came in with RT.

The extension would not be a huge deal. Miller might get some security and would jump at it knowing how depressed the RB market is.

Nope . . . last year was year 2 for Dion Jordan, Jamar Taylor, Will Davis and that group.

Ok well that helps...even still he plays a position where guys get hurt regularly and hes not all world...i think you make him play it out...only the rediculous guys get the massive contracts anyways at rb...the position has really devalued in free agency

Does anyone think right now hed be more than a 5 and 20 guy as a free agent...i dont

Man even that sounds like a lot :lol:

He had a real good year last season, but I tell you RB is a position where I feel comfortable drafting on day 3 this year and coming out with a pretty decent player.
