Up and down the roster, Chris Grier has done a masterful job mixing in young talent with high end veteran play.

From Emmanuel Ogbah, Xavien Howard, Elandon Roberts, and even Duke Riley, the Dolphins don't want to fix anything that was never broken to begin with. The question remains, who was the reason for Miami's elite defense, the players... or Brian Flores? We get into that, as well as look at who the Dolphins have brought in for visits this week. It's a fun one, so come dive in!

The Dolphins shipped out a veteran offensive lineman, and what followed was a barrage of "leaks" and reports indicating that everyone around the league had insight as to what the Miami Dolphins draft day plans were.

In this episode, we talk about the depth the Dolphins have as well as some potential options via the NFL Draft. Join us as we discuss Brian Flores' offensive philosophy which lends itself to two tight end sets far more than the average team, something he may have inherited from his predecessors up north. Let's talk ball and join the Pod!
Everyone and their mothers believes that the Dolphins will leave the NFL Draft with a wide receiver. Whether that be Ja'Marr Chase, Devonta Smith, or Jaylen Waddle, many believe it would be stupid for them to look elsewhere. What's the reason?
Well on today's episode of the PhinsPod, we look at who is currently on the roster at the wide receiver position, and who has a chance of making it to the opening day roster. Let's dive in!

From powerhouse offensive lineman from the Pacific Northwest in Penei Sewell, to game changing pass catchers in Ja'Marr Chase and Kyle Pitts, Miami has choices and we dive in to a few of them. Join the Pod and subscribe!
During his introductory press conference, Kyle Van Noy was asked by the New England media whether or not there were hard feelings between himself and the Dolphins organization. In so many words, he expressed his displeasure with the way things ended and we talk about it.
We also discuss the re-signing of Elandon Roberts, a former Patriot not so disgruntled. Was it a smart move or should the Phins have looked to find linebacker help via the NFL Draft? We talk about it and more in this edition of the PhinsPod!
There has been more talk from the national media this week about Tua Tagovailoa. Specifically, we discuss the recent comments from Colin Cowherd where he discussed the possibility of drafting Justin Fields at 3 overall. We look at the merits of that move and why people are so adamant on the Phins moving on from the Samoan lefty.
We also touch on Ryan Fitzpatrick's defense of Tua in a recent podcast appearance for the Ross Tucker Podcast. Were these words just to be nice or did Fitzy mean what he meant? If so, then Tua may be something special after all. Let's dive in!
In order to save what we now realize was much needed cap room, the team parted ways with Kyle Van Noy. This void at the linebacker position required Miami to find value pieces in return in order to make up what was lost. To do this, Miami has brought in Duke Riley from the Philadelphia Eagles, as well as Brennan Scarlett from the Houston Texans.
In this episode, we discuss the two backers and what they bring to the defense. We talk about who will step up to replace Van Noy and what that will leave in its wake. In the Pod, we also cover the release of Isaiah Wilson, formerly of the Tennessee Titans. The tragic story of a young career lost is never fun, and unfortunately the Dolphins lose out on a potentially gifted athlete in the process.
We talk about all that in more in this edition of the PhinsPod! Let's dive in!
After a few days of what appeared to be sitting on their hands, the Miami Dolphins came to terms with former Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller V. Fuller possesses elite speed and can take the top off of any defense, his addition will no doubt help Tua Tagovailoa and we discuss the move here.
We also hit on the signing of veteran center Matt Skura. Formerly of the Baltimore Ravens, Skura had struggles with the "yips" last season and was therefore able to come to Miami at a bargain. Should the team have operated like that, or should they have paid for David Andrews? We talk about it in the latest episode of the Pod!
Dolphins fans continue to stress as the team continues to stay quiet on the playmaker front. However, the team did add a few pieces and in this episode we touch on those and how they can help the team. Specifically, CB Justin Coleman and DT Adam Butler. Miami also brought in WR Robert Foster, an Alabama alumni, however there has to be more in store.
We talk about who was signed, and who is left on the board for Miami. Would JuJu Smith-Schuster be a good fit at this point? Or should Miami look towards the draft to address the wide receiver position? Join us as we talk Miami Dolphins free agency!

Join us as we dive into free agency and discuss what the team has done so far!
Brian Flores believes his defense can be better, and that is a scary thought for other teams in the league. To do this, the Miami Dolphins needed to upgrade their run defense and in this episode we talk about the trade which did just that. The Phins sent the Houston Texans veteran DE Shaq Lawson in exchange for LB Benardrick McKinney.
We discuss the move and try to determine what the Dolphins may be signaling with the trade, as well as how McKinney will fit into the defense based on his skillet. Let's dive in!
Everyone feels as if the Miami Dolphins should grab a running back in either free agency or the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft. However, they did have two young studs come out of nowhere last season, and both are out of the Pacific Northwest.
Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed showed flashes, and in this episode we talk about their skillset and how they may be utilized going forward. We also discuss some potential upgrade opportunities in the free agency such as Aaron Jones, Chris Carson, James Conner, and others as well as in the draft.
Those names include Najee Harris, Travis Etienne, as well as the two boys out of UNC, namely Javonte Williams. Join us as we talk backs in this episode of the PhinsPod!
The 2021 NFL offseason has begun in earnest. The Miami Dolphins acquired former Georgia Bulldog Isaiah Wilson from the Tennessee Titans for merely a swap of 7th round picks. In this episode, we talk about the trade and whether the 20201 1st round pick can be salvaged in Miami with the Dolphins organization.
We break down the trade, the financial implications, as well as what the move could mean for the Phins draft plans going forward. Join us as we dive in!
In order to know where the Miami Dolphins stand right now, we must look at the rest of the conference to see who is at the top of the pecking order. With teams like the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Baltimore Ravens, the Dolphins have some tough competition that does not look to be going anywhere.
In this episode, we take a brief look at each team and how they compare to where Miami is in their franchise's arc to a hopeful Super Bowl run. Join us as we analyze the American Football Conference and the teams within to see where our Phins stack up. Let's dive in!
Perhaps the most surprising factor in the Miami Dolphins success in 2020 was the emergence of their defense. Not only was the unit able to change games with their dominant performances and turnover creating plays, they were assembled last offseason and did not have full time to gel.
Despite that, the defense led the way to the team's 10-6 performance. We take a look at the players who did it and see what their outlook is for the team going forward. Join us as we dive in to talk about all things Dolphins and the NFL!
In a shocking move, the Miami Dolphins parted ways with 2020 free agent addition Kyle Van Noy. Van Noy was about to enter the second year of a 4-year, $51 million deal. However, the Dolphins decided to save about $10 million against the cap for other additions to the roster. But why?
We discuss whether the move makes sense, or if the cut indicates something bigger at play for the Dolphins. Join us as we dive in to the latest news around your favorite team, and the National Football League!
Following a positive sophomore season for Brian Flores, the 10-6 Miami Dolphins look to continue and improve their roster on all fronts. We take a look at the offense and break down each position group to determine where the Dolphins are weakest going forward.
From Tua and the quarterbacks, to Mike Gesicki and the tight ends, the Dolphins have some work to do in order to improve their weakest side of the ball including special teams. If Miami can address these needs, then 2021 should look to be even better. Join the Pod as we discuss and take a look back at the 2020 Miami Dolphins NFL season.
In this episode we break down the argument favoring Justin Herbert over Tua Tagovailoa. Where does this narrative come from and why is it being shoved down our throats? We use context to analyze the situation and let you know whether or not you should feel upset about the Miami Dolphins selecting Tua instead Herbert.
Specifically, we respond to the assertion made by NBC Sports' "Pro Football Talk" suggesting Tua may have an extremely short leash in Miami and that the Dolphins have already made a mistake. Is the future brighter for Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers or should we calm down in South Beach? Join the Pod as we discuss in today's episode!
Are the Eagles viable trade partners for the Dolphins now that they are without Carson Wentz? The Eagles shipped their former first round pick QB to the Indianapolis Colts. The move leaves Philly with Jalen Hurts and a potential desire for a new franchise quarterback.
Miami may look to leverage the Eagles to gain more assets in a trade back, in this episode, we talk about the trade and what the Dolphins can do to maximize their haul come April during the NFL Draft. Join the Pod and dive in!
