Been thinking about this a lot. Maybe too much. But hey, this is what fans do. We all know the Fins have obvious need at WR. Looking at the FA WRs and the draft prospects plus taking into consideration the type of WR Tua needs, I think we make a trade for Brandon Cooks (or someone similar). Houston is going to need to get some draft capitol back. Nothing more than a 3rd rounder and some lower picks. Cooks has 4.3 - 4.4 speed. Definitely still draft a WR in RD 1 or 2. Next year, they trot out Parker, Williams, Cooks with rookie, Grant and someone else. I guess I keep Grant over Wilson because of ST.

The players that are likely to make it to FA (Robinson, Godwin, Golladay) are a lot like what they have already. Tua could use a guy that can get open right away because of speed off the line. He's faster than Juju.

It will also be huge if we get a healthy, 2019 version of Devante Parker.
 
Brandon Cooks is a no for me dawg. He's only good for 2-3 games a year.

JuJu Smith is a no as well. He doesn't get separation. Allen Robinson or Godwin if the price tag isn't too high and then draft a WR. If no FA WR, just double up in WR in the draft.

We also get Albert Wilson back and I think Bowden will continue to develop.

Bad idea, don’t want anyone else’s crap. If you noticed our history any high priced free agent shits the bed when they get here aka Mario Williams, and I’m done with those guys. And it would take a high priced free agent to try and reach our goals. No thanks. Let’s draft our WRs and mold em our way. The role player free agents like Van Noy etc are fine because they love the game and give effort because they realize they’re not super star drama queens
 
I think the Dolphins could pull off a trade or two this year off season for a talented vet at any number of positions if the cost is right.

Curtis Samuel is a guy I'd keep an eye on. If he's getting offers more than what Parker makes then never mind. If he's getting offers he doesn't like I'd especially love to do a 1 year deal.

There's a certain Dallas Cowboy I have an eye on. Desirable salary rate over the next two years.
 
If the price is fair I'm all in on Will Fuller in fa and draft a wr in rd 1 or 2. I would also use a day 3 draft pick on Amari Rodgers to compete with Bowden in the slot. For example Parker, Fuller, Bowden, Williams, Olave and Rodgers would be a decent wr corp... even better if you swap Olave for Smith or Chase. I know Fuller has his question marks, but hopefully they result in going for a decent market value. Fuller gives you a wr you know from day one can make plays down field. It's just a matter of keeping him on the field.

Draft. When will we learn
We definitely have to draft a WR. I said that. Draft 1000% is the best way to build, but it could be good to pick someone up as FA or fair trade too if the price is right and they fit the model (in prime and right attitude). Not talking Mike Wallace.
 
Tell the Broncos they should get rid of Jerry Jeudy after his 5 drops on Sunday. Tell them we'll do them a solid and give the Devante for Jeudy. Then Miami can draft Smith to give Tua two of his familar targets.
 
Rather sign Juju and draft Chase or Smith.
 
I prefer to draft one, but if a Diggs type deal pops up I love the idea of securing a top end WR for our late round pick. A Kenny golladay type for example.
