Saturday sucked no doubt but its time to move on to what this teams needs to get over the hump. We have some major cap issues showing up and some holes on offense that needs to be resolved.
Lets start with the elephant in the room....Tannehill is not going anywhere let's be honest. His cap his is too rediculous to cut him and no team is going to trade for him after that playoff performance and his cap number. I'd love to explore options but best case scenario is he rebounds in 2022 and we trade him prior to loaded 2023 draft for QBs. So we need to build up the areas of weakness on the team in the meantime., simple as that. We are stuck with him for at least one more year so might as well strengthen the team as much as possible. As much as I would love to explore a Rodgers or Wilson trade, I'm being realistic here. Its likely not happening. We don't have the draft capital to pull it off. So here's what I would do if I were Robinson
Re-Sign:
Harold Landry - #1 priority...have to get it done. Most of the defensive started would return with this resigning.
Ben Jones - 2-3 yr deal with the final year being no guaranteed money. He was the most reliable guy on OL this year.
Goeff Swaim - Solid cheap blocking TE and showed up in the passing game some this year.
Don'te Foreman - giving Henry the ball 28-32 carries a game is not sustainable as this year proved. Need to get him 8-10 carries a game.
Cut:
- Roger Saffold he is just too expensive for what he is and we need cap space. Slide in Radunz in his spot. I don't think he's going to be our RT but this may work out.
Daryington Evans - he was easily replaced this year and can't stay on the field.
Jackrabbit Jenkins - No longer worth 10.5 mil and got torched several times this year.
Restructure:
- Taylor Lewan- would be willing to sign him for another 2yr extension if it helps. He looked awful early but came back into form later in the season.
Kevin Byard- already said he would restructure to resign Landry
Let walk:
Brown and Evans- We an't afford them and were essentially replaced later in the year by Cunningham and Long.
Free Agents:
- Haden Hurst (TE) got replaced by Kyle pits but still young and an upgrade
Or
NJoku - finely showed some promise this season. So may be a late bloomer.
- Will Fuller (WR) yes I know his injury history but this team needs a burner that Tannehill can't overthrow.
Draft in order of priority:
- RT - Quess is not a starter, yet again we need to draft on for the 3rd year likely in the 1st but I would really like to see us trade back and get an 2nd rounder back if a QB doesn't fall down the board.
- QB ( if a good one falls go get them but don't reach for one, Mahomes draft was considered weak as well so may be opportunistic that someone falls)
- TE (this moves up this list if we don't sign a FA)
- CB (Depth pick)
- WR - (if Fuller is not signed get a later round guy who can run. Need to stretch the field more)
- C/G (Depth)
- K (it really hurt us that we had no confidence in our kicker to make a 50-55 yrd field goal against the Bengals, its time to pick one)
