Guards Guards and more Guards

[Bahamas]

I can't believe this...The Denver Bronocs just Louis Vasquez and Evan Mathis is a free agent...to put it in perspective, the defending superbowl champs have a worse off guard situation than the Miami Dolphins

GASE, Tannebaum and Grier - jump into the pool and sign both of these kids!

Jeff Allen is still available
Alex Boone is still available

Stop with the building the Def for a second and address the biggest area of concern.

Why haven't we signed anyone yet?

[AquaXI]

I'd sign at worst one Guard and draft a Guard. But 2 Guards in Free agency is a dream come true.

[Seadog]

These guys have 20 free agents to sign, then they only offered Brock a 3 year deal, wouldn't surprise me to see him gone as well.....

[AquaXI]

Isn't anyone worried about the Tackles? We got one made of glass granted tempered and the young one can get hurt too.

[DolphinsFreak]

Guards? We don't need no stinkin' guards !!

[Seadog]

Apparently, we haven't had one in a while.....

[Bahamas]

Seadog - that killed me brov

[cuchulainn]

Takes two to tango... I'm sure they've already reviewed who is available and who is likely to be - as well as who they want... if they don't make a move on a vet FA OG or OT, then they'll be doing so in the draft...

There's still the scenario of drafting Ronnie Stanley and moving Albert to LG...

[Bahamas]

I want Jeff Allen - kid is legit and is entering his prime. We lost out on KO, but I would be fine with a pairing of Allen and one of Denver cast offs

[Bahamas]

We could then possibly go into the draft with a philosphy of drafting the BPA

[Seadog]

And I like both those picks, then that idiot Phillips got a sack and the coach benched him for it......

[Bahamas]

@Cuch - who or what are you hearing on next round of visits.....I heard boone was in town, but nothing after that

[cuchulainn]

Dunno now... too many stupid rumors about players and trades flying around.

[kelbail2.2]

Offensive line is still priority one in my book no matter how they go about it. We need a near perfect line to get Tannehill over .500.

[cuchulainn]

Right... cause it's all on the QB... Miller's ypc dropping from 5.1 to 4.5 was also on Tannehill... as was Ajayi's and Williams carries, the defense being historically bad, the last hurricane to devastate SoFL, the dog that peed on your tires, etc...

Get a grip. OL will get some attention.

[Bahamas]

#$%^&*()_)(*&^%$#@#$%^&*(

Jeff Allen - my top OG is going to sign with Bears or Falcons....come on MIami - make a move:
Jeff Allen - G - Chiefs

FOX Sports' Alex Marvez reports the Bears and Falcons are "heavily pursuing" free agent G/T Jeff Allen.

Allen is the poor man's version of Kelechi Osemele as someone capable of playing both guard and tackle. Unlike Osemele, however, Allen probably isn't an option at left tackle, and that will keep his price within reason.

[Seadog]

I got this part #$%^&*()_), you just lost me with (*&^%$#@#$%^&*(

[Bahamas]

Seadog - that killed me

[DolphinsFreak]

All the guards are flying off the free agency board. I wonder if we pulled bs k the curtain if we would see Bull Brlichick? How can all these different coaches, GM's and Czars all neglect the offensive line the way that they do? Second and third rate players won't cut it, period! Draft picks won't cut it, period. Tannehill needs to prove it this year or be gone, period. Build the jacked an o-line and stop the excuses,period. This stuff gets old! Tannenbaum better get moving on protecting the QB or Ross will be forced to fire his buddy and favorite wife's husband.

Vikings agreed to terms with OG Alex Boone, formerly of the 49ers.
It's an indication the Vikings expect to lose free agent Mike Harris. The St. Paul Pioneer Press reports Boone will slide in at left guard, kicking Brandon Fusco back to the right side. A starter in San Francisco each of the past four seasons, Boone has fallen off since a monster 2012, but is still better than replacement-level. Going on 29,

[Bahamas]

I definitely thought Boone would be a Dolphin

So here's the top of the list

Brandon Brooks
Jeff Allen
Louis Vasquez
Geoff Schwartz
Jahri Evans
Evan Mathis

[cuchulainn]

Hoping like Hell that the new OL coach, Forrester, didn't look at the tape of Dallas Thomas, Douglas, and Turner and tell the decision makers - ''yeah, I can work with these guys. We're good.''

I still think the scenario of drafting Stanley @13 for LT and moving Albert to LG could be in play, though I'd rather bring in a vet OG and draft Alexander at #13.

[DolphinsFreak]

Why not sign Alex Mack and kick Pouncey inside to guard too? ....Alexander, Albert, Mack, Pouncey, James ?

[cuchulainn]

Agree... even with these moves our secondary needs more work. Grimes is gone. Alexander is good pick at #13. OG, Cody Whitehair in the 2nd would be a good pick up as well.

[Bahamas]

Mack just signed with ATL brov

[DolphinsFreak]

Texans are trying their best to keep Brooksfrom reaching FA.

Bears or Fslcons will land Jeff Allen.

I mentioned Vasquez about a month ago as a player we should target. He can play both guard positions and right tackle. I don't believe he has knee issues so the Dolphins might not be interested in him.

Schwartz is average.

Evan Mathis would be an amazing pickup. Not going to happen unless he wants to get ready for his retirement and live close to home. He probably wants a shot at another ring though.

Jahri Evans is a really poor mans version of Evan Mathis. He's better then two Thomas and Turner though.

[cuchulainn]

Agree with all this.

Evans would be a good signing for 2 seasons IMO. He'll be 33 this season. Bills are after him right now. Fkrs.
