With that being said, do we:

  1. Make another splash in FA?
  2. Ignore FA altogether (except who we would resign) and go for comp picks the following season?
This is a list of our FAs:
https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/miami-dolphins/

Out of that pile, what do you predict our comp pick haul to be, assuming you chose #2?
 
We've got the cap space, to make sensible signings in the mold of Ogbah and Lawson. Would be folly not to try a plug a few holes such as another LB . I've also got a feeling we may trade someone we will be surprised to and that will create another hole.

I would like to keep the draft picks to focus on weapons for Tua, you get better value there and it's easier to hit on those skill positions. Those 4 top picks in my view should all go on playmakers, but they probably won't.
 
Of that list,
Matt Haack for sure. Fitzpatrick? Ehh I like the leadership / mentor aspect, but I wouldnt hate a young backup too. Fitz, qb coach?

I'd like to bring Karras back, but we'll see how he prices himself. Need to bring in our own young guy to develop tho also

I would see about bringing back guys like KGH,Roberts, and Biegel on minimal deals - special teams and depth.

Nik Needham has turned into a solid nickel, and I like Perry for depth / ST as well.

Ahmed is a keeper. I could see us keeping Washington or Breida maybe too

Hollins for ST too

Godchaux, I would resign if not too expensive. I would still be looking to draft another DT though too


Those are the ones that stick out to me. Godchaux, Karras, and Haack probably most expensive of the bunch, and Haack is the guy of those 3 I'd be resigning first probably (i mean he's a punter, he wont break the bank lol)
 
Depending on what Miami eventually has in cap space, I think dictates what they'll do. So with the expected cap crunch coming, it might be wise to concentrate on their own players and avoid the big ticket players.

I think you'll see Miami further build through the draft and player development.

It seems sustainable because, there are so many young players still on rookie contracts, who are playing well and developing.

There is also a good group of young veterans who have 4-5 yrs on their contracts and are contributing. That's potentially 4-5 years of quality football.

If they can continue to build through the draft and replace the expiring contracts in the future, its not impossible to think Miami could have a decade run on winning.

Click to expand...
I have no idea what Fitz' mindset is on playing. I will assume with all those spawn running around he's about done but a nice check is a nice check for being on the bench week to week. If Miami can figure out a good compensatory package to keep him on as QB coach I wouldn't be opposed to send the current nerd at QBC packing. Just have to convince the tank commander that Tampa Bay is an awful place to live.....
 
Comp picks for that list won't be determined until the 2022 offseason, But I can see a couple.
 
I think we have an advantage in keeping our players and also

attracting players -- namely Flo and also Mister Grier. Add to that

Tua and his development. This team has "it" goin' on and I believe

our "intangibles" will add perceived value -- and not just a little.

Of course if a player is just hunting for $$$ -- he doesn't belong

with this org/group anyway...
 
I would Fitz back but will he?
Which vet would come in?

I personally would love Robinson.
Resign Karras and Biegel and other RFAs we have
 
I'm looking more at who is worth more to us on another team than they are with us.

Our of that pile I see Fitzpatrick and Godcheaux.

My question would be what type of contract would they sign and what would we get in return...assuming we don't cancel them our with another teams FA.
 
Value and health. If we can find a stud receiver in free agency or a young DE I am ok with one big splash (similar to Byron Jones). We have 4 picks in the first 2 rounds.
