The Dolphins, who need to address their backfield this offseason, worked out former Ravens RB Alex Collins, who led them in rushing in 2017 with 973 yards.

They also worked out CFL QB Chris Streveler, who led Winnipeg to the Grey Cup this year. A potential developmental arm.

Kevin Lerner wrote:Louis, who has missed the past two seasons because of injuries, spent all of last season on injured reserve with the Dolphins after he suffered a knee injury during organized team activities in May. He also missed the entire 2018 season after suffering a neck injury during training camp as a member of the Cleveland Browns.
The 25-year-old Louis, a former Auburn standout who Cleveland selected in the fourth round of the 2016 draft, spent three seasons with the Browns. He started 12 of the 32 games he played during his first two seasons, catching 45 passes for 562 yards.
The 6-foot-2, 215-pound Louis brings added value as a return specialist. During his rookie season with the Browns, he returned nine kickoffs for 164 yards, averaging 18.2 yards per return.

We are still too soft up front.  We have to be more physical, run the ball, stop the run and pressure the QB.  

If we are to take Grier at his word, he will prioritize the O-line and defense front 7 to build a physical squad.  If we see more skill position and secondary players drafted instead, nothing has changed.

Wilson and Grant are the only short receivers on the current roster.  All other notable receivers are over 6 feet:
Preston Williams 6'5"
DeVante Parker 6'3"
Allen Hurns 6'3"
Isaiah Ford 6'2"
Mack Hollins 6'4"
Ricardo Louis 6'2"
Gary Jennings 6'1"

But yes, I wouldn't mind drafting another big, fast receiver!

Saw an article that Flores like the setup when it comes to WR. I don't see Miami picking up one unless for returning kicks

Jakeman wrote:With the Dolphins looking down the scope of the 2020 free agency period, loaded with roughly $88 million in cap space ammunition, a few more Patriots are becoming top-targets, according to the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson.

“The Dolphins hold Patriots free agent Joe Thuney in high regard and are expected to be among a number of teams to call when negotiations begin in less than two weeks,” Jackson wrote on Tuesday.

With plenty of teams interested in the 27-year-old left guard’s services, he will likely ink the largest contract among guards, which could pay out roughly $15 million per year.
