    I’ll tell you how without watching it.

    TE / OLINE / RB / WR pick two good ones in the first 3 rounds and your golden.

    The best thing you can do for a QB is give him protection. Second best thing is give him a running game.

    I can't remember a Miami team being this close to being Super Bowl contenders. I think our only question mark is Tua.

    I want to piggyback off of what another poster had previously brought up about trading up.

    If we can get Pitts or Chase, I think we should be hyper aggressive. Move up and get Smith and Harris/Williams.

    I think we need to change the mindset of this board. For over a decade, we have been a hot mess, and we have essentially needed 5 players on offense and 5 players on defense every offseason.

    I think if on offense we had:

    Parker
    Chase/Pitts
    Gesicki
    Bowden/Smith
    Fuller

    Harris/Williams


    I don't know how anyone could objectively make excuses for Tua. If he is good, he will thrive. If he is not good, he will struggle.

    I also think this hyper aggression would actually work to properly build a roster.

    Just looking at the saturation in talent, critics would probably say, "That's too much," and "How do you get that much talent onto the field?"

    I love the solution to those problems. Guys like Parker and Fuller would really, really have to justify their salary. If Parker balls out like he did two years ago, I have zero problems paying him. The problem with Parker has always been that he looks great for 5 games, disappears for 5 games, is average for three games, and misses 3 games. Has he ever really been on the hot seat? Not really. Why? Because he is so obviously our best receiver, and there really wasn't a better option on the team.

    Like I said, I would love to have Parker on our team. I would also love to have his salary - win-win.

    I think Will Fuller is playing for an extension. I think if he balls out, he could wind up being a staple in Miami. In this scenario, I could see the front office viewing Parker and Fuller competing for a roster spot heading into 2022.

    I think we are really, really close. At this point, I think we would be far better off with three solid player on offense than more picks.

    I don’t believe we are anywhere close to a super bowl bound team. I know that’s not what you said but we have a lot of things fox we have 2 more years of good talent needed and we have to win our division which is going to be very hard now with Buffalo and New England restocking
