@Tino9322 @OLCoachSmith63 I think AJ is a starter.....but he needs to stay healthy. Was hoping Kacmarek would get an opportunity to compete.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@OLCoachSmith63 @AquaCoralRep @JMendel94 2025 Hill was decent......2024 Hill is another story. VERY excited to see what Kacmarek brings to the run game......good chance he does more to solve the Fins short yardage issues than any other roster addition this offseason.

@HussamPatel @JoeRoseShow Set at LT, hopeful at LG, set at C, wishing at RG, set at RT (if AJ stays on field). Salyer can play in the NFL....still in need of depth but there is plenty of time.

@haralabob Team with worst record picks 32nd.....you still have parity but the bottom teams will fight like hell to not finish last.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@haralabob Last place team picks last....as in 32nd. Won't eliminate tanking but will make games by also-rans entertaining as they try to get their players to keep them out of the basement.

@EsotericCD Not really a fan, but their cover of Shadowplay is damn good. The drums competed with the bass and guitar in the original....The Killers reeled them in and gave the song more rhythmic stability....also much more tension and release.....well done.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@flasportsbuzz This idea that McD's alleged lack of discipline was the cause of Miami's shortcomings is misguided. His guys always played hard.....the problem was he and Grier picked the wrong guys. They leave Miami and accomplish very little. AVG is the exception, not the rule.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@PoupartNFL Don't stop at top 10 picks.....Fins have drafted 2 AP All-Pros in the last 10 years...a punt returner and a kicker.....the Fins have been woeful at drafting for a long long LONG time.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@the_real_reason Achane should be gone….this regime (in what is uncommon in Miami) is acknowledging that they cannot compete for a chip this coming season or the next. So they need a roster that peaks 2-3 seasons from now. Waddle and Achane are near their peak now which is too soon.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@Tino9322 @OLCoachSmith63 Yup.
Along with seemingly prioritizing intellect over physicality. You need both and should avoid making excuses for why somone is lacking in either.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@Tino9322 I think you mean less of that guy they had paired with Brooks (which was Dodson)?
And I agree!

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@chrisperk I thought we we’re done with smallish QBs who get hurt easily?
🤞🏿

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@Tino9322 First move by new regime that raised my eyebrow. I assume it was cap space, age and fit. But there is zero doubt….they are tearing down to the studs and starting over. I will be surprised if Achane plays for the Fins in 2026. Poor fit on a different timeline.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@Tino9322 Exactly

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@OmarKelly Because our O-line was good on paper, but injuries exposed lack of depth which proved insurmountable.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@OmarKelly Zero chance Tua was going to play on a 5th year option with his injury history.....no agent worth his salt would let him. They had to pay him or hitch their wagon to mediocre backups.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@Noahpinion Nonsense.....MTV et al just follow the youth and the youth was up on rap and now they are up on pop.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@DolphinsTalk Specifics please.

[The Ol' Man @jeffclyburn]

@OmarKelly Gets injured easily.
