Barry Jackson @flasportsbuzz 1m1 minute ago ... Coples, a DE/OLB, was 16th pick of 2012 draft and was a disappointment in New York. The Jets waived him this week and Miami pounced.

Good move

Anybody can have a turnaround by switching environments. We've seen it happen. It's worth a shot to see if he can help us for sure why not.
-
Oh hell yes, this guy was a first round pick just a few years ago. Give him the rest of the season to show us something.
-
well, Tannebaum drafted this kid didn't he? makes sense he would take a chance on him.
-
If they don't cut him by next week then they must really like him because they are on the hook for his injury-guaranteed $7.8 million salary in 2016. If he suffers an injury that prevents him passing a physical on March 9th the Dolphins are on the hook for $8 million they canNOT afford.
Part of me wonders if they cut him after this week, after giving him a game check and pumping him for info about the Jets, then pass him through waivers once again and try and sign him once he clears.Kud_II likes this. -

Can he be restructured before that deadline (after the season) is my question? -
never been a fan of his but using him to get some inside info on the jets is ok.
-
You know earlier in the day I wondered why no one posted about his release and the possible tannenbaum reunion. Then thought it'd be too simple to happen. Go figure.

I wonder if the 5th year option is still in affect, the only reason I wonder is because I'm not sure this has ever happened, I certainly don't remember it ever happening, and are there any clauses in the rules about such a thing.
He is in the last year of the contract he signed, the 5th year option is exactly that, an option the team can take without consent of the player, so I just wonder if there is some type of clause that negates the option because he was waived from the original team that took the option.
It's an odd scenario, who cuts a guy that they just picked up the option on?
I'm sure we'll find out soon enough though. -

Is he good against the run at de is all I want to know. We've got plenty of rush, very little run stopping ability at both DE spots. This move intrigues me because it may push Dion to his natural spot at LB. He'll be cheaper than OV next year and gives us more flexibility with determining what to do with Wake.
Try to keep Dion if only to cover Gronkowski twice a year. Our LBing unit suddenly looks a lot better with Dion, Jelani and Misi/Hewitt... Maybe Hull or Vigil lights up as well. -

I would look for him to be used on the inside in pass rush situations.

People are still holding out hope that Jordan even sees the field for us again?
-
I'm kidding. I agree, Jordan is basically sunk cost. But Hewitt, Luc, Sheppard, even worse.resnor likes this. -
