Dolphins Releasing Starting S and Team Captain Bobby McClain

Rhule is a big believer in giving the young guys he sees potential in reps. Guys like Sam Franklin, Hartsfield and even Kenny Robinson. 

At this point I’d be surprised if we brought in a veteran safety given where we are as a team but who knows...

Sounds like they might look to trade him instead?

He still has almost $15M left on his contract for the next 2 years, but none of it is guaranteed. So he may be willing to restructure with whatever team picks him up.

We have 18.5 mil.  15 showing and another 3.5 available after june1st for Tre Boston.  
 

I think we are shopping for a LT.  May wait until cuts happen with all the drafted OL this year.  But I think our starting LT is not on the roster right now.  

Carolina really doesn't have much to spend. With 11 rookies, it will take close to $12M to sign the class. They will keep $3-4M at least open during the season for emergencies. Panthers have maybe $3M to play with to sign veterans without restructures or cuts.

These teams can ALWAYS free up money if they really want to sign a guy.

I will be honest--I do not pretend to know what we need on defense any more.  I used to be able to say, "Boy, we need a DT"---and then I went to HurnMart and got me McClain and Fua on the grab rack.  I used to say, "We need a free safety,"   then Amahurn sent me Hakuri Nakamura, an order that took 30 days to arrive.

These days, with the hybrids and the 3-3-5 and big nickel and stuff--I have no idea.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
