Show notes

Mike McDaniel is gearing up for his third NFL Draft as coach of the Miami Dolphins, on Wednesday he met with the media at the combine.

From there, he also shared thoughts on his coaching staff, specifically the decisions to move on from defensive coordinator Vic Fangio while keeping special teams coordinator Danny Crossman.

We share the highlights and project what's next for the Dolphins with the free agency and the draft quickly approaching.

Dolphins Draft Guide: Everything You Need to Know About the 2024 Running Back & Tight End Classes Feb 29, 2024

Show notes

The rookie combine begins this weekend while the NFL Draft is less than two months away. Considering Miami has only six draft picks, would it make sense to select a tight end or running back in the first or second round?

From Jonathan Brooks to Bucky Irving and Brock Bowers to Brevyn-Spann-Ford, this draft guide is created with an aqua-and-orange focus.

The three-day combine is also an opportunity to chat with coaches and Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel is never afraid when in front of a microphone. So, share his thoughts on Tua Tagovailoa's potential contract extension, the decision to move on from Vic Fangio as defensive coordinator, and why Danny Crossman will be back as special teams coach.

From Today's Show: Xavien Howard's Time In Miami Is Reportedly Ending After 8 Seasons Feb 27, 2024

Show notes

Two-time All-Pro cornerback Xavien Howard was on the books for $25 million next season, and it was clear that the Miami Dolphins would need to change something.

It was reported late last week that the Dolphins are releasing Howard and designating him as a post-June 1st roster cut. We celebrate Howard's eight seasons in Miami before exploring what's next.

The Dolphins will free up $18 million in cap space over the summer — what is the best way for general manager Chris Grier to spend this money?

Salary Cap Solutions: Miami Plans to Move On From Xavien Howard and Emmanuel Ogbah Feb 27, 2024

Show notes

The NFL announced an "unprecedented" salary cap increase for the 2024 season late last week. While most salary cap experts expected the cap to sit around $240, it was announced to be $255.4 million for next season. The Dolphins began the day $50 million over the cap. They later announced that Emmanuel Ogbah would be cut, saving the team roughly $10 million in cap space — dropping that number to about $30 million.

News also broke late last week that the Dolphins are planning to move on from Xavien Howard as a post-June 1 roster cut, saving the team roughly $18.5 million against the cap. Howard, a 2016 second-round draft pick, was a two-time All-Pro in South Florida and led the league in interceptions — twice! We travel down memory lane to explore Howard's time with the Dolphins.

From Today's Show: Could De'Von Achane be Miami's No. 3 Receiving Option in 2024? Feb 23, 2024

Show notes

De'Von Achane was targetted 3.4 times per game in 2023, while the Dolphins ranked top five in running back targets. Considering the volume of targets Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle receive, why should a pass-catching option be needed for a team currently $50 million over the salary cap?

The Dolphins struggled to involve Cedric Wilson and Braxton Berrios. So, instead of testing the waters with another receiver, coach Mike McDaniel should lean into the team's strength at running back. Miami targetted tight ends a league-low 52 times despite being one of the NFL's best offenses — we explain why it may be best to spend money elsewhere.

Emptying the Notebook: Jaylen Waddle Trade “Rumors,” Mock Drafts, and More! Feb 23, 2024

Show notes

For late February, this week was loaded with news and notes about the future of the Miami Dolphins. Jake and Josh empty the notebook on all the information you might have missed — starting with former NFL general manager Mike Tannenbaum's take that the Dolphins should trade Jaylen Waddle to the Kansas City Chiefs... what?

From there, we hit on a report that Miami won't let Christian Wilkins leave in free agency despite the franchise being $50 million over the salary cap — can general manager Chris Grier find a way to keep home-developed talent in South Florida? Daniel Jeremiah released his second mock draft — could edge rusher be on Miami's round-one radar?

We wrap the week by discussing why, considering limited draft capital and salary cap space, De'Von Achane could be Miami's No. 3 option on offense in 2024.

Developing: Left Tackle Terron Armstead is Expected to Play in 2024 Feb 22, 2024

Show notes

Miami Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead sounded like he was leaning toward retirement following the team's playoff loss to Kansas City, but the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson reported that the 32-year-old Pro Bowler expects to play next season.

Armstead signed a five-year contract before the 2022 season and has a cap hit of $20 million in 2024. While he appeared on the injury report for 13 of 17 games last season, he remains one of the league's best tackles when healthy. Considering the pros and cons of having Armstead on the roster — we predict whether he'll be suited up in aqua and orange for Week 1.

From Today's Show: Will Miami's Defense Have a Superpower Next Year? Feb 20, 2024

Show notes

The Miami Dolphins had all the pieces to feature one of the league's top defenses last season but fell short of expectations. Due to injury and salary cap issues, first-year defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver will have to do more with much less in 2024.

The Dolphins might not have a top grade in Madden, but Weaver's defense should lean on its stars, creating opportunities for others on the roster. Miami won't be fully equipped next season, but what can be ignored without entirely derailing the defense?

What Can We Expect From The Miami Dolphins Defense with Anthony Weaver Calling the Shots? Feb 20, 2024

Show notes

The Miami Dolphins entered the 2023 season with plenty of top-end talent with Vic Fangio running the show as defensive coordinator. Miami's defense was one of the best at pressuring the quarterback but was unable to keep up with the league's top offenses.

Fangio is now with the Eagles and the Dolphins introduced Anthony Weaver as first-year defensive coordinator. Miami has salary cap issues and it seems like the roster won't be as talented in 2024, but we explain how the defense must go in a new direction with injuries up front.

Christian Wilkins is expected to become a free agent, Bradley Chubb and Jaelan Phillips suffered season-ending injuries late in the year. Can Miami's defense be one of the league's best units with Jevon Holland and Jalen Ramsey leading the charge?

From Today's Show: Are There 55 Million Reasons to Extend Tua Tagovailoa's Contract? Feb 16, 2024

Show notes

$55 MILLION!? Yes, you're reading that right. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported that the Miami Dolphins and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa are expected to begin negotiating a contract extension — and that it is likely to be expensive.

Garafolo suggests that Tagovailoa may campaign for a contract similar to Joe Burrow's after his strong 2023 season. While Miami's season fell apart late in the season, we explain why a contract extension makes sense for both sides.
