MarQueis Gray announced on Instagram that he has a place to call home for the next two years. The team hasn’t made any announcement and there’s no word on any financial terms of the deal.
Gray joined the Dolphins in March and has seen the second-most snaps among tight ends this season while playing in all 15 games. He’s caught 14 passes for 174 yards and has been used often as a blocker over the course of the year.
The Dolphins have plenty of other players set to become free agents after the season with right guard Jermon Bushrod, wide receiver Kenny Stills and linebacker Kiko Alonso — who will be a restricted free agent — among the most notable names on the list.

Without knowing the numbers, I didn't like the Sam Young extension, but I do like this one. His blocking has been very good for a TE.

Miami already planning for 2017, with quite, subtle moves.

1 year for 1.25 million for Young is not a lot, nor are we locked in for years.bakedmatt likes this.

Yeah, pretty cheap.

Dion Sims ranked 42nd according to PFF. I would venture to say that the signing of Gray and the advent of Duarte will result in Dion Sims walking. I see Duarte has added significant weight as well. Maybe he has even started to learn how to block.
Give me OJ Howard and George Kittle in the draft and call the Dolphins all aces in the TE department.
Although....I would still like to bring back Anthony Fasano. The ageless wonder still leads the NFL in blocking, and not by a little. There isn't another TE in the league who even comes close to Fasano's blocking grades. Maybe Duarte can spend another year on the PS.
