The team pulled out all the stops to get him. Kelsay is an aging veteran. I don't think Mario should ask for it and I also believe Kelsay will offer it. Kelsay is by all evidence a team player and leader and I think he'll offer the number just to welcome Mario to the team.

Which is why I like that it was written about someone else. Perceptions of the AFC East are changing this offseason after we signed Mario and the Dolphins swung and missed 4 times and I believe it is likely we find it easier to sign quality free agents going forward. Oh what a difference a week makes.

LOL, Miami can't do anything right this offseason and PFT is pointing it out now http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/03/18/ryan-clark-says-no-one-wants-to-join-the-dolphins/ Dolphins fans are losing their minds in the comments section!

Care to make a wager on that. I'll make a signature bet with both of you that we go better than 8-8 this year with Fitzmagic as our QB.

The fact that you sit around and watch this happens worries me

Both Levitre and Urbik are solid starters. You want one of them to switch solely to a backup role for no reason just so we can draft DeCastro? That makes no sense to me.

Yeah that's why I asked. His measurables are in line with a SAM linebacker or MIKE, but I think he's a better player than Shep and I would rather Shep, who is a bit slower, move outside

Kuechly comes in, where does he play and what does that do to Shep. Can one of them shift over to SAM?

I'll reserve judgement until we see 1- How Kyle looks upon his return 2- The progress of Carrington and Troup- I am really hoping these 2 take a big step forward in their 3rd year, but who knows. If they do, we have a solid DT rotation of William, Dareus, Heard, Troup and Carrington can start at RDE opposite Williams with Kelsay spelling Williams. Why haven't we cut Dwan Edwards yet?

They belong to us. If another team came in and offers them a contract, we have the right to match the offer. If we don't match the offer, we get their 3rd rd draft pick.

Our CBs are old and we're not re-signing McKelvin next year when his rookie contract ends. So, we're gonna need to pick up at least 2 CBs in this offseason.

Johnny, this has been said in like 4 threads already! I agree with you though. I just don't think Martin will be the BPA

Take the highest rated LB and then move guys around to make it work. He's listed as inside, but I don't care where we put him. Shep can compete with Morrison for the SAM http://www.bceagles.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/kuechly_luke00.html

I think it'll be Carrington

Fixed

This is what happens when you don't have a minimum post requirement for starting threads.

I agree. It sounds like we're telegraphing the pick here. We didn't re-sign our starter and the GM came out and said Hairston is a "start down the line" kind of guy. Looks like Hairston will be a swing tackle and they're going to draft Martin. Not a very sexy pick, but if we get a guy who can start for the next 10 years, I'm good with it. 2-4 are probably CB DE OLB CB. We need multiple CBs to groom this year cause all we have for the future is Williams. Florence and McGee are getting old and McKelvin probably won't be re-signed once his rookie contract is up at year's end if he's expecting big money.

Make way for the Miami Dolfelons at the position of perennial bottom-dwellers of the AFC East. The team is quickly gaining a terrible reputation, going after 3 people publicly (2 coaches and Manning) and losing out has their fan base fuming. Now, they are reportedly trying to low-ball Flynn, thinking he'll take a smaller offer WHILE VISITING SEATTLE in order to sign with Philbin, his former coordinator. I truly hope that he signs with Seattle and Tanenhill goes before the Dolphins' pick, leaving them with not QB of the future. Perception is everything in signing free agents. Buffalo has been taking major steps at shaking the perception of being a franchise in disarray and it looks like Miami is taking up that public mantle and running with it. Here's to them becoming the new Raiders East!

Can someone list the top 4 RDEs in the draft?

I want neither of them and yes, I think you're less than intelligent for suggesting it

I'm editing because I originally said OT, then thought about it and realized Martin may not be the BPA. Is the 3rd tackle off the board better than the 2nd WR, CB? I dunno. I'll just say BPA knowing it could be any position.

Why is this still a sticky. Nix said we never contacted Manningham and he just said on PFT that we're out of the FA receiver business

This thread should never be unstuck

We will not be drafting a GUARD in the first round. I have heard 2 different teams with late 1st rounders say Hightower is their guy. Hill will be gone at least by the 2nd round with the combine he had. I wouldn't like this draft at all. AND ou have us taking not 1 but TWO guards? Pass.

There's no way we get swept by the Sanchize HOME Miami Dolphins - WIN New York Jets - WIN New England Patriots - LOSS Jacksonville Jaguars - WIN Tennessee Titans - WIN St. Louis Rams - WIN Kansas City Chiefs - LOSS Seattle Seahawks - WIN AWAY Houston Texans - LOSS Indianapolis Colts - WIN San Francisco 49ers - LOSS Arizona Cardinals - WIN Cleveland Browns - WIN New York Jets - LOSS New England Patriots - LOSS Miami Dolphins - WIN I could see 10-6. Most likely we drop one to Seattle or Tennessee and go 9-7. Who are the 5 idiots who think we're getting LESS than 4 wins this season?
