GM Role Play: Fixes over the Bye Week | Page 9

OnTheClock · 2026-10-25T14:15:14-07:00

We can't sit on our hands and just assume we're good to go without further insulating ourselves. We clearly had issues that got exposed today at pass rush, corner, LG, and WR. Outside of WR, I don't think there's enough to feel comfortable at other areas. This is what I'm doing if I'm GM going into the bye: 1) Cut Eddy He's been the worst in the NFL unfortunately this year and the late miss was one of many mistakes helping cost us a game – almost cost us last week too. REPLACEMENT: I'd give Graham Gano or Matt Prater a look. 2) Cut Jack Jones If he's not getting burned, he's getting penalties, every single week. REPLACEMENT: Activate Nate Hobbs off IR and play Prysock over him in the meantime. 3) Trade for pass rush help Without Bosa, this group seems lost when they face quality OL. Our IDL got no pressure today either. They'd be screwed if they lost him or White for long. ADDITION: Look into adding Buckner or Mack, if not both, honestly.. If possible. 4) Cut WR Cooks Really been a non factor since arriving, and has had penalties every single week since starting, on top of being absolutely horrific as a blocker. Watkins needs to hold onto stuff better but at this point needs to take all his snaps. With Deebo, Evans, and Robinson all coming back, there's no room for Cowing either soon, when you factor the top 6 should be Evans, Samuel, Robinson, Kirk, Watkins, Stribling shortly after.

IF you add Buckner and Nelson is that the answer or do you add Buckner and Mack and have a highly effective DL the rest of this season in an effort to win the SB and then adjust at left guard at you need to? Perhaps move Puni over to LG? Interested to see what others think.

I'm all about getting Nelson, but Kyle has said he doesn't believe in investing in the O line. His philosophy is coaching up mediocre players.

Kyle has never said this.

If it's a long term building block trade I prefer Quinton Johnston at wr. And I am looking at chop Robinson.

1. Sign Azeez Ojulari off of LV practice squad(replacing Khalid Kareem)

2. Trade for Ladd Mcconkey (replacing Cowing). He gives us in the passing game what we miss when CMC is hurt/out. Also could serve as our PR replacing Cowing. While Ladd has been dinged up a bit I dont think he missed more than 3 or so games in his career.

I dont see any reasonable options in tbe secondary. Only reasonable player I can see as a semi possible trade candidate is Minkah Fitzpatrick. He was to become available id be all over it.

So you want an injury prone receiver to come to the most injury prone team of the league.

Why would the Dolphins trade a young pass rusher still on his first contract??? Not like they have a bunch of superstars lining up to get paid.
