No one. Even with Suh, the Dolphins are not a SB contender at this time. Tannehill has a losing record after his first three years in the NFL. Players who take less money to sign with a team are looking to go to a team with an elite QB and one that has a legitimate chance of winning a SB in the near future. Perhaps in a few years some quality players will be willing to take less to come to Miami if they feel the Dolphins are close to contending for the SB. At this time I just don't see any of the better free agents taking less money to play for the Dolphins.
This isn't the nba. very few take pay cuts in the nfl to join a new team. Its all about making the right moves in the remaining time in free agency and drafting well. We need 1 guard, 1 LB (not sure which position), 1 cb (Id go free agency and trust Taylor and Davis), 1 WR (I'd go first round with all the receiver talent), and decide what to do at safety whether we bring Delmas back or go another route.
The LB position of need is the MLB. The Dolphins don't really have a LB on their team at this time who is a true NFL middle linebacker. I agree CB is a big need, just as another safety is needed to play alongside Jones. I see the offensive guard positions as another need because we have no idea if any of the young players can step up and fill either of these positions. Wide receiver becomes a big need only if Wallace is traded or cut. If he remains on the team, the need to use a high draft pick on a receiver become less relevant. I would like to see them add a big back for short yardage and goal line situations, but they can probably find this type player late in the draft or somewhat cheaply in free agency. If Moreno is healthy, it would be great to have him next year but he might want more money than the Dolphins are willing to pay at this time.
THE BIGGEST HOLE IS HEAD COACH . biggest needs everyone but the center as far as oline is concerned . linebacker and cornerback with out a doubt. I say we rebuild in accordance with what is available in the draft. or we draft offense this year and use f/a to address the defense .
No one is coming here because they want to play with Tannehill. Theyre coming here because it is Miami, one of the best cities in The country. Tannehill hasnt established himself for other players to say he's the reason i signed with the team.
linebackers might take less to play behind suh. suh gets dbl teamed, no one blocks the lb. God this is exciting.
There's a guy I'd say would deserves to have his career cut short via knee/skull trauma. Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk 4
This team needs success first. Hopefully in 2 years or after a successful season next year players will want to come play here. And no you don't need a HOF QB. Players are still lining up to play with the 49ers and Seahawks. We just need to make the playoffs and start winning. Then they will come.
Next season(2016) I think Wake,Grimes,and Jones will be asked to restructure.It's gonna be hard to ask when you just paid someone $100+ million
