The sky fell earlier this week when Christian Wilkins, Robert Hunt, Andrew Van Ginkel, and other franchise cornerstones signed with new franchises in the first wave of free agency. That said, general manager Chris Grier went to work rebuilding the roster, especially on the defensive side of the football. Miami lost more than half the roster's defensive starters, but the team's approach expects to be different under first-year defen...

The Dolphins have signed two defensive tackles, two linebackers, a safety, a running back, and a center — but there is still work to be done! Despite just $1 million in available cap space as of Wednesday night, we shake the crystal ball to identify which positions the Dolphins must improve in the second wave of free agency.

Wednesday marked the beginning of the 2024 NFL League year and the Miami Dolphins are moving forward without Christian Wilkins, Robert Hunt, Andrew Van Ginkel, and a handful of other players who helped the franchise achieve recent regular-season success. That said, it was time for general manager Chris Grier to make some changes, and it started with rebuilding the linebacker group with Jordyn Brooks (Seattle Seahawks) and Anthony W...

The legal tampering period began on Monday with the Las Vegas Raiders agreeing to a deal that gives Christian Wilkins top-ten non-quarterback money over five years — nobody saw that coming! The same can be said about Robert Hunt, who inked a five-year deal worth $100 million to join the Carolina Panthers. While the Dolphins were quiet for most of the day, Brandon Jones signed a three-year deal to join the Denver Broncos and Andrew ...

Raheem Mostert followed Mike McDaniel to Miami and the decision paid off in a major way. Mostert led the league with 18 rushing touchdowns while rookie third-round pick De'Von Achane averaged more than seven yards per carry on the ground. That said, Miami's rushing attack disappeared with its Super Bowl aspirations late in the season. Considering that Jeff Wilson Jr., Chris Brooks, and potentially Salvon Ahmed are all in the mix, w...

The Miami Dolphins must clear $20 million off the salary cap before the new league year begins on Wednesday. That being said, it's hard to imagine that general manager Chris Grier not clearing up enough space to add a handful of players early in free agency. Miaimi's offense fell apart near the end of the season and the defense will transform to meet first-year coordinator Anthony Weaver's vision. The Dolphins have to be smart when...

Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill appeared on Pivot Podcast earlier this week to discuss lessons learned throughout his year, his transition to Miami, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and even shines the spotlight on some late-season drama. Hill noted some situations inside the locker room where players might've shut down instead of working and communicating through their issues. "We need to come back and then talk about it,...

The Miami Dolphins began the offseason more than $50 million over the salary cap. Still, that number has shrunk to roughly $19 million after the team released linebacker Jerome Baker, who spent six years with the franchise. While the move saves Miami about $10 million against the salary cap, it also creates a major hole at inside linebacker. Despite the team's salary cap issues, it didn't stop them from signing defensive tackle Isa...

Nine players were placed on the franchise tag by Tuesday's 4 p.m. deadline, but Christian Wilkins was not one of them. Plans have quickly changed less than a week after ESPN reported that Miami would not let Wilkins walk out the door. Instead, the five-year pro will test free agency when the league year begins on Wednesday. That said, insiders have reported that the Dolphins are leaving the door open for a potential return, what wo...

Mike McDaniel is gearing up for his third NFL Draft as coach of the Miami Dolphins, on Wednesday he met with the media at the combine. Among the topics, reporters asked McDaniel where things stand on a contract extension with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, mentioning that they hope he'll stick in Miami for a long time. From there, he also shared thoughts on his coaching staff, specifically the decisions to move on from defensive coord...

The rookie combine begins this weekend while the NFL Draft is less than two months away. Considering Miami has only six draft picks, would it make sense to select a tight end or running back in the first or second round? From Jonathan Brooks to Bucky Irving and Brock Bowers to Brevyn-Spann-Ford, this draft guide is created with an aqua-and-orange focus. The three-day combine is also an opportunity to chat with coaches and Dolphins ...

Two-time All-Pro cornerback Xavien Howard was on the books for $25 million next season, and it was clear that the Miami Dolphins would need to change something. It was reported late last week that the Dolphins are releasing Howard and designating him as a post-June 1st roster cut. We celebrate Howard's eight seasons in Miami before exploring what's next. The Dolphins will free up $18 million in cap space over the summer — what is t...

The NFL announced an "unprecedented" salary cap increase for the 2024 season late last week. While most salary cap experts expected the cap to sit around $240, it was announced to be $255.4 million for next season. The Dolphins began the day $50 million over the cap. They later announced that Emmanuel Ogbah would be cut, saving the team roughly $10 million in cap space — dropping that number to about $30 million. News also broke la...

De'Von Achane was targetted 3.4 times per game in 2023, while the Dolphins ranked top five in running back targets. Considering the volume of targets Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle receive, why should a pass-catching option be needed for a team currently $50 million over the salary cap? The Dolphins struggled to involve Cedric Wilson and Braxton Berrios. So, instead of testing the waters with another receiver, coach Mike McDaniel sh...

For late February, this week was loaded with news and notes about the future of the Miami Dolphins. Jake and Josh empty the notebook on all the information you might have missed — starting with former NFL general manager Mike Tannenbaum's take that the Dolphins should trade Jaylen Waddle to the Kansas City Chiefs... what? From there, we hit on a report that Miami won't let Christian Wilkins leave in free agency despite the franchis...

Miami Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead sounded like he was leaning toward retirement following the team's playoff loss to Kansas City, but the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson reported that the 32-year-old Pro Bowler expects to play next season. Armstead signed a five-year contract before the 2022 season and has a cap hit of $20 million in 2024. While he appeared on the injury report for 13 of 17 games last season, he remains one o...

The Miami Dolphins had all the pieces to feature one of the league's top defenses last season but fell short of expectations. Due to injury and salary cap issues, first-year defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver will have to do more with much less in 2024. The Dolphins might not have a top grade in Madden, but Weaver's defense should lean on its stars, creating opportunities for others on the roster. Miami won't be fully equipped ne...

The Miami Dolphins entered the 2023 season with plenty of top-end talent with Vic Fangio running the show as defensive coordinator. Miami's defense was one of the best at pressuring the quarterback but was unable to keep up with the league's top offenses. Fangio is now with the Eagles and the Dolphins introduced Anthony Weaver as first-year defensive coordinator. Miami has salary cap issues and it seems like the roster won't be as ...

$55 MILLION!? Yes, you're reading that right. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported that the Miami Dolphins and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa are expected to begin negotiating a contract extension — and that it is likely to be expensive. Garafolo suggests that Tagovailoa may campaign for a contract similar to Joe Burrow's after his strong 2023 season. While Miami's season fell apart late in the season, we explain why a contract extensi...
