I agree that they haven't really played anyone decent yet, and as I stated in my earlier post, they could very well end up at 8-8 or 7-9. But if you don't see anyone on to be overly excited about, then you obviously aren't very familiar with the young players on their roster.

I’m sure a team can do a handshake type deal with the agent but yikes if he suffered a serious injury

Not many teams have the cap space to accomodate his tag payments this year and some that do eg Jags and Boys can be crossed off.

Remaining list is Browns (who have a ton of RBs already) Colts, Texans 49ers Titans Jets

49ers and Titans signed RBs in FA already this offseason
The Dolphins could use him. I love Drake but he's not a 3-down back and never will be. Frank Gore is nice but he's 50 and will probably get less productive as the season progresses. And the Dolphins are known to enthusiastically embrace drama wherever they meet it and they're without a reliable first-team locker room cancer at the moment.

So list them. They aren't on TV around here and none of the names jump out at me.

Like Tannehill is 30.

Drake has been alright, Gore is ancient. Do you have a good OL?

Wake is old.

Stills has been good but a Saints castoff. Parker has been hurt. Grant is a midget who is super fast but gotten some giant plays. Geisiki is probably a year or two away.

Kiko is old but had a good start. I'd assume Minkah is playing well.

Again nothing or no one jumps out at me like Mahomes or what some other teams have. So fill me in.

Not much talk about it, prob because Dominic is the only Bills fan left, but Allen showed a lot of the tools that created his pre-draft hype and were mocked by his detractors (me being one of them). Interestingly enough, I think his most impressive stuff came on highlights you won't see- two of the big plays were wheel routes that were wide open. He made a # of tough throws into tiny windows that few have the arm strength to make. Didn't make too many mistakes, and showed decent touch on short passes which was a knock on him. Oh and this was pretty sweet too-



Obviously only one game but I'd be pretty damn happy if I was a Bills fan/Dominic.

Well it's hard to say because he crumpled as soon as his knee buckled, and the Chiefs are terrible tacklers. It's possible he could have sloughed off the hit from Nelson and scored (assuming he hadn't stepped OOB of course, which he didn't know).

Yeah, Allen was sweet AF. His WRs are terrible too. Having a big game vs. Vikes D with terrible receivers and Chris Ivory at RB is super impressive.

That rule sucks.

The Bills’ strategy vs. the Packers should be to just let Mathews sack Allen and get the free 15 yards.

Don't get me wrong I want the rule repealed too, but I can't tell what he did differently because of the rule. Either way this was a freak accident. It isn't like this rule is going to cause a bunch of season ending injuries to defensive linemen or something.

You're correct. Minkah is already playing at a pro bowl level. And speaking of pro bowls, Reshad Jones is a great strong safety who went to the pro bowl in 2015 & 2017, and would have gone in 2016 as well if he hadn't gotten hurt.

You mentioned Wake in your post, but actually Robert Quinn, whom the Dolphins picked up from the Rams, is Miami's best defensive lineman. And according to reports, he's playing at the same level as he was when he led the league in sacks a few years ago.

Miami's also got some good young tackles in Akeem Spence (acquired from Detroit), Jordan Phillips and Davon Godchaux. As a result, the Fins don't miss Suh or his $27 million salary.

But the best player on defense is probably Xavien Howard, who is arguably the best young shutdown corner in the league right now, with 7 INTs in his last 8 games. If you don't know his name yet, I guarantee you will by the end of the year.

http://www.espn.com/blog/afceast/pos...r-3-0-dolphins

You stated that Gesicki is probably a year or two away. That may or may not be true, but he's starting (and producing) now as a rookie. Miami also has two rookies starting at LB, Jerome Baker and Raekwon McMillian. (Well, technically, McMillian was drafted last year, but got hurt on the very first play of preseason and missed the entire year.) They may be a year or two away as well, but doesn't that sort of make my point? I was disagreeing with the notion that Miami had a dismal future outlook. The fact that they have several high draft choices starting already, and playing pretty damn well, seems to paint a bright future to me. (Or at least not a bleak one.)

Do the Dolphins have holes? Absolutely! They need another corner; the LBs will be exploited due to their youth and inexperience; they're thin along the OLine (and have already lost arguably their best interior lineman in Josh Sitton for the year); and, who knows when or if Tannehill will revert to the QB he was before Adam Gase arrived.

But there is enough young talent on the roster to give Fin fans hope that the future is anything but bleak.

I get that people thought Miami might not be a good team this year (and they still might end up being their usual mediocre 8-8, +/- 1), but I don't get why so many thought they were the worst team in the league.
I was talking with a friend about this yesterday, and he expressed the same thing. I think people just didn't see anything to be excited about, but then you remember that they made the playoffs in 2016 and went 7-9 with Literally A Retired Guy at QB last year.

They could, but they don’t have enough cap space so they’d have to extend somebody
