First off, I pray the kid gets better. It's a shame we treat people who smoke weed like drug addicts...it's not a drug, alcohol is, but I digress...

I don't miss him because I think he'd be a great pass rusher...in fact that was never going to be his strength.

I miss him because, now more than ever he'd be a tool to help us beat our AFC East competition.

Tyrod Taylor scrambling keeping us out of man? no problem, spy with Dion.

more importantly, he may be one of the few people in the NFL that could potentially stick with Gronk 1 on 1.

Our Gronk stopper if you will...

Oh well, I know it doesn't matter now.
 
He can't cover gronk 1 on 1. This guys contributions to this team have always been overstated

gronk is going to go down as one of he best tight ends ever. Yet he can be shut down by a bust? Please...
 
Don't see it. The guy was a reach and waste of assets. It's time to turn the page. I will be shocked if this kid suits up for Miami again.
 
what's his cap hit next year?
With contracts for OV and Wake up in the air, will be interesting - maybe Cam takes a cut, as he has slowed down
 
Staff wanted to beef him up for DE and pretty much end his foray @OLB.

Dude smoked some weed to increase his appetite (per the coaches directive to "bulk that chit up") and bang! Busted!

Better to play with soft balls and cheat swindle games than get the munchies.

NFL = fixed league.

BNF.
 
Gronk would eat his lunch if he had to cover him one on one for an entire game.....to change looks on Gronk yes he could stay close to Gronk for a play or two but thats it....Gronk can't be stopped one on one, he is 6-6 who is fast and athletic, if you want to take Gronk out of the game ( which is to limit the damage he does to your defense) is to double him, especially in the red zone....
 
Jordan can not take on Gronk one on one but he may be a better SOLB than Chris McCain which would keep Shephard and the darling Vigil off the field and help our defense overall. I think we're missing Jordan a little bit, and even if he was a competent SOLB he's still a bust, but it shouldn't make or break anything.
 
Gronk would destroy that mental midget. Good riddance.
 
The dude is a drug addict if he can't stop in order to continue his livelihood. I don't care if it's weed, meth, beer, or tic-tacs. He couldn't stop to save his job/dream, etc. Nothing against weed, god knows i've had my fun, but lets not act like the guy has been unfairly labeled as having a drug problem - he knew the rules and still couldn't manage - and by all accounts, these guys KNOW when they will be tested!

If Jordan contributes another positive play for the dolphins, i'd consider it a huge bonus at this point. All but forgotten as far as i'm concerned.
 
Good NFL players need to play with heart and desire. Dion comes up way short on both.
 
had hopes for this guy, just ready to cut the cord and move on and get someone who can contribute
