Randy Starks Released

Dolphins released DT Randy Starks.

The move wipes Starks' $5 million salary off the books. The Fins apparently couldn't justify keeping Starks after making Ndamukong Suh the highest player on their roster. While Starks remains a disruptive pass rusher at age 31, his run defense took a major step back in 2014. Starks isn't an every-down player anymore, but should still be able to contribute in a rotation.

I don't know about yall but I think starks would be great in rotation here.

I would prefer we not hold onto aging players just because they've been here as we are apparently doing, it's never been a real formula for success. That said, Starks likely wants to go somewhere he'll start.

Nothing wrong with having two young studs, and a couple of aging players in a rotational role.

Sure we don't have the money to go out and get Cam some weapons but we have the money to go and get someone at a position that we are already stacked at?

Starks isn't exactly a sophomore year guy either, he's just better than what we have there.

Better than Cole/Edwards?  Probably, but I wouldn't think it's significant enough to matter much, and I don't expect our aged DT's to be around much longer than this season.

    • Care to elaborate why you disagree? We kicked the ball off 3 times and we kept the Browns to starting field position of the 22, 27, and 10 (would have been 21 before a penalty). All 3 of those are successes with the modern kickoff rule.
    • Its August so obviously quality options are not there. The question is whether any improvement can be made to the bottom of the depth chart.
    • NFL has a huge amount of parity.  The talent level between most NFL starters outside of the top 5 to 10 guys at a position is very comparable.  2020 worst teams Jacksonville Jaguars - 1-15 (worst record in NFL) New York Jets - 2-14 Cincinnati Bengals - 4-11-1 Atlanta Falcons - 4-12 Houston Texans - 4-12 Carolina Panthers - 5-11 Detroit Lions - 5-11 Philadelphia Eagles - 4-11-1 Los Angeles Chargers - 7-9 Denver Broncos - 5-11 2024 Worst teams New York Giants - 3-14 (tied for worst) Cleveland Browns - 3-14 (tied for worst) Tennessee Titans - 3-14 (tied for worst) New England Patriots - 4-13 Carolina Panthers - 5-12 Jacksonville Jaguars - 4-13 Las Vegas Raiders - 4-13 New York Jets - 5-12 Chicago Bears - 5-12 Arizona Cardinals - 8-9 Bengals, Texans, Lions, Eagles, Broncos and the Jags have all made the the playoffs in the last 3 years. What I'm saying is it's stupid to argue when team is the worst when there is so much parity and the system allows quick turnarounds.
