With the Washington Commanders coming to town last week for a joint practice and pre-season game, I posted the following question-
If you could steal any player from the Washington Commanders roster to place on the Miami Dolphins roster, which player would it be and why? Who would you then cut from the Miami Dolphins roster (someone who we at least assume will make the regular season roster at this point), and why?
Well, I screwed up and cut and pasted the question from the same post about the Atlanta Falcons and forgot to change the name of the teams, but luckily, you all knew what I meant. Below are some of your best answers and thoughts on the question of the day-
Alley Gator wants an exciting rookie quarterback as an insurance policy.
Jayden Daniels. He’s on a cheap rookie contract and will play this season, because no one can survive behind our IOL.
Saskatchefin would like to steal a couple of defensive upgrades/depth pieces.
Daron Payne as he would fill a spot at DT where Wilkins left. I would also look at Jeremy Chinn as he would be someone to fill one of the 3 Safety positions.
sdphinsfan wants a possible star rookie tight end.
Ben Sinnott. This rookie is going to be a star at the TE position. He blocks (really well), has great hands, great at YAC.
The Earl says to go get this “most underrated” wideout.
Terry McLaurin. He’s produced 4 straight 1000 seasons & narrowly missed his 5th one as a rookie with 919 yards. He produces despite having had mostly trash at QB. He’s a solid route runner & has missed 3 games total in his career. He may be the most underrated WR in the league. If Miami added him as WR3 in this offense, they might score 40 ppg.
Yarganaught already got his wish fulfilled.
I would totally steal Fuller… Oops, looks like we already did!
JKBMia has a list that includes the rookie QB, a center, a tackle, and a defensive lineman.
Liked Biadasz a lot coming out of school was bummed we didn’t draft him then.
Likely him, Cosmi or DPayne. Something to plug the holes we have in the middle.
Looking at cutting Driscoll on OL or Pili/Gallimlre on DT.
dedstrk316 would like to execute the old steal and trade move.
I love Jayden Daniels but would I steal him since we just signed Tua? Yes, steal him and trade him for picks.
Dolfanjoe is down with taking Sinnott away from the Commanders.
They drafted a young TE who may be the real thing! All around and young!
21Dave wants a nasty defensive tackle.
D.Payne we can always use an upgrade on IDL!! Not sure any OL would be a up grade from what we have.
phinette wants an upgrade at center. Me too, me too!
Hands down Tyler Biadasz. It will be interesting to see how Luke McCarthy does. I noticed he is taking first team reps.
TheRoo1 wants a new name for the Commanders that fits their region. I suggest the Washington Con Men!?!
Teams names should reflect the city it represents. Dolphins fits Miami. Likewise Cowboys fit Dallas and so on.
For DC, the Federal fuqqups would be appropriate.
72Phins4ever wants to trade a crap backup QB for a center. If Grier could pull that off, he would deserve the GM of the year award. Is there an award for that?
Tyler Biadasz give them Mike White and his cap hit.
SuperG!, we are all with you. Literally every Miami Dolphins fan agrees with you!
Which Commanders would I steal? I have no idea. Who do they got on the IOL? It’s gotta be better than what we got there.
daytonadolfan must know something that the rest of us do not.
Can we get their water boy?
There are a lot of great suggestions, especially for anyone who can play along the offensive line. I can not tell you how concerned I am that the entire season could be derailed based on the lack of quality across the offensive line. I’m still hoping for a trade or two to upgrade the line. As always, thank you to each of you who took the time to answer the question of the day.
