Get the latest news and rumors about the Miami Dolphins from Rant Sports.
Fans of the Miami Dolphins have high hopes for last year’s fourth-best rookie quarterback. Whether or not those hopes are justified remains to be seen. Statistically speaking, Ryan Tannehill had a well below-average season. He finished up with 12 TDs, 13 interceptions, nine fumbles, and an overall rating of 76.1. His believers might point to [...]
Anyone who watched the Miami Dolphins on HBO’s Hard Knocks last season saw Joe Philbin begin his reign of terror as a head coach in the NFL. The show gave the world a look at a no-nonsense, by the book disciplinarian who likes his players’ shirts tucked in, their shoes tied and has little patience [...]
The 2013 Miami Dolphins offensive line features a left tackle who many have questions about, Jonathan Martin. At left guard is a guy coming off his first ever Pro Bowl game in Richie Incognito. They also have one of the best center’s in the NFL in Mike Pouncey. The right side of the line may [...]
The Miami Dolphins spent a lot of cash money on offensive skill players to help the development of the passing game (aka the franchise, Ryan Tannehill), but the running game has been left in very young and inexperienced hands. Personally I see mega upside in guys like Lamar Miller and Mike Gillislee, but I am [...]
Last year, the Miami Dolphins spent a third-round pick on defensive lineman Olivier Vernon. He played 445 snaps as a back-up defensive end during his rookie season, doing everything from rushing the quarterback, to dropping into coverage. It is this versatility that has made Vernon one of the early stars of the Dolphins offseason. Jared [...]
The Miami Dolphins underwent a huge overhaul on defense this offseason in an effort to better stop opposing pass offenses in an increasingly air-happy league. Miami entered the 2012 regular season with a roster most experts were down on, but managed to scrap together a pleasantly surprising 7-9 campaign even with the league’s 27th-ranked pass [...]
Last week, the Baltimore Ravens lost another member of last season’s Super Bowl team when they released fullback Vonta Leach. The Ravens wanted Leach to take a pay cut, as has been the story of the Ravens’ offseason. When an agreement could not be reached, they cut ties. Now Leach has hit the free market, and the Miami Dolphins are among the teams [...]
From time to time you will hear of athletes turning down more lucrative contracts or taking pay cuts to create a better situation, if not for themselves, but for their teammates even. Well, free agent wide receiver Mike Wallace falls directly into that boat. According to a report, Wallace turned down a $76 million contract [...]
The Miami Dolphins let two perfectly good linebackers go this offseason in Karlos Dansby and Kevin Burnett, but are making a transition that rides the current flow of where NFL offenses and successful defenses are generally going. Miami possessed one of the better linebacking units and best run-stopping squads in the league and have now [...]
