Oline is a must that's what is killing them on so many levels and the depth guys like Fox are horrible. In the mock draft I drafted 3 linemen Fins only brought in one....they need more new blood if anything to add better depth.The thing is, given the contract of some of the guys who have under-performed, they are likely to get rid of some guys to start over -- our TE, Cameron is the first that comes to mind. He was banged up with injuries to start - once he was healthy, our OL and entire offense as a whole was already struggling - so, as usual, the Dolphins put their very decent pass-catching in a tough position by asking them to primarily do blocking - and their pass catching talent go to waste. I always say the Dolphins have to be methodical with their offense - run the ball - go short and intermediate and get your TEs involved then open it up - that is , in fact, the purpose of the west coast offensive scheme the dolphins run.
We need depth at RB behind Ajayi and Miller . At WR we only have Matthews, Landry, Stills and Parker with bright futures.
Defensively, the positions you mentioned before - But , I think if they were healthy it would be much better. Our corners might be the biggest point needed to address. There we are either too inexperienced, or just washed up as is the case with Grimes.
We have some bad contracts on this roster given the way things are playing out and I think that is why blowing it up might be the best route
Wouldn't be bad to find a stud TE you can see what guys like gronk, olsen, gates, etc..do to help an offense. Cameron can be good but he'd be better as your 2nd guy.
WR Mathews may be gone if he tests FA but at least they have 3 decent young guys especially if Parker takes the next step that is crucial hopefully we see more this year.
RB is ok needs depth.
QB I'd like to see a developmental QB taken this year just to be safe.
DB's although hopefully some of the younger guys improve. Either way a stud CB would help and allow Grimes to be #2...he'd be ok there.
LB not sure if Sheppard is the answer at MLB maybe a young guy impresses we'll see but having a Zach back there sure helps...
DE Wake may be gone as well as Vernon so this may need to be addressed if Jordan is done. Maybe get lucky with Coples he could play better at DE than LB.
If the right moves are made they can drastically improve as they aren't that far off. Cap will be a little tight so may not get much FA help...
