Have to say, really surprised right now with the direction we are going in free agency. Thought we were going to go all in on some guards, and have yet to see that, but we played it smart with OV and won't have to deal with any of that 85 million dollar undeserved contract. Mario Williams, Kiko Alonso, Byron Maxwell, and Isa Abdul-Quddus are our initial targets and we really blended risk with reward with those four players. Mario gives us another proven pass rusher and quality run defender on a fair 2yr deal, Kiko could become the ILB that we desperately need and is on a rookie contract, Maxwell gives us size and strength to go up against the bigs of the AFC East, and Isa is an under the radar quality player that gives us a starter alongside Jones. And while not a move per se, keeping Wake was CRUCIAL to me as a Dolphin fan, as he has been the Jason Taylor of the decade and yes he is getting up there in age and now coming off an injury, still is one of the best to play the game and with his work ethic he should be able to come back and be the force we all know he is. Sad to see Grimes go, but wouldn't restructure and his wife ran him out of town.
So now that we've pretty much cleared day 1 of Free Agency, where would you go from here? For me, I definitely want some OLine help, seeing as most of the best are gone now, I'm looking at Geoff Schwartz, who we've talked to, or Fernando Velasco/Vladmir Ducasse. I also would like to see another corner added to the mix, Mo Claiborne as a project for Vance Joseph comes to mind. A runningback after Lamar Miller went to the Texans would be nice, Tim Hightower/Joique Bell/Reggie Bush/Ronnie Hillman could be solid cheap veterans. Also seems like we wanted another run stopping DE, would like to see Jarvis Jenkins in the mix for consideration there. Also another ILB for depth behind Alonso as backup in case he re-injures himself, like Sean Spence of Pittsburgh.
So for me, if we could ideally come away Schwartz/Claiborne/Bell/Jenkins/Spence we can go into the draft and purely take BPA.
Thoughts?
