Totally spitballing here. I don't know who's a free agent and who's under contract but it's the NFL and dudes under contract get cut all the time. With apologies to Dupree..... QB Tannehill- still the future. Safe. Matt Moore - I'd be shocked if he's still on the roster next year. We gotta invest in developmental guys cause Tannehill might not be the future. RB Miller - he's a free agent. It's mentioned all the time. Gotta think we find a way to keep him. Depends if he wants to go to the highest bidder. But RBs are highly fungible. Maybe the market won't be there. Ajayajai - Rookie contract keep. Williams- a rookie FA would do better than him. Probably will be selling life insurance after we cut him. WR They all stay except for Matthews. He's a FA and I'm predicting we keep Miller and OV. Matthews is the odd man out. I'm okay with that. Thanks for your service. You got screwed by Philbin. Join the club. OL Juwan James, Albert, and Pouncey are safe. Dallas Thomas - out of football after we cut him Billy Turner - showed enough to be a backup next year. Jamil Douglas - maybe the new staff can develop this guy. Is that allowed in Miami? Fox and Shelly Smith - out of football after we cut him. TE This position is real tough to predict. Cameron didn't live up to his contract and Simms was inconsistent. No clue! DL Suh is obviously safe. He played great. Loved him rolling up on Brady's ankle. It was his coda to 2015. Mitchell - gone. Get somebody younger. Phillips - hopefully on the squad for a long time. Raw Dog - love him. Keep him. OV - we have to overpay this guy and I'm ok with that. If you can't rush the passer and you got nothing. Wake - who knows? Too tough to predict without the medical information. Fede and Couples - get rid of them for younger cheaper guys. LB They're all garbage. Worse than Ellerbie/Wheeler. Koa Misi - you will not be missed despite your tenure. DBs. They're all garbage except for Jones. Aikens is likely gonna be depth Delmas is done. Lippet is a rookie so he's safe. Thank you Brent Grimes for 2.5 years of awesomeness. But you're done. I like our kicker/punter combo.
Odds of not returning - RT - 5% Matt Moore - 70% Logan Thomas - 85% Mitchell - 70% Wake - 40% Jordan - 75% Coples -70% Misi -35% Grimes -65% Delmas - 100% Taylor - 70% All of our other DBs are trash and could be gone Miller - 60% Cameron - 85% Jennings - 90% Matthews - 50% Albert - 35% Dallas Thomas - 90% Jason Fox - 95%
well, everyone according to ESPN, who says that the dolphins are changing their color scheme next year. http://espn.go.com/blog/miami-dolphins/post/_/id/17546/dolphins-ditch-aqua-orange
I think we've clearly seen the end of Brent Grimes, Koa Misi, and Greg Jennings for sure. The two most interesting cases we have this offseason will IMO be Cam Wake and Jordan Cameron. Hopefully we can get Wake to restructure and while Cameron was a flop this year I'm interested to see what our offense and who the coach is before we make that decision.
Grimes should be back otherwise you now have to DB's you need to replace. Moore should be back, unless they draft someone to replace him.
