What's next for Dolphins? Addressing contracts of Ndamukong Suh, Cam Wake

As for Wake, same thing - if they're not going to cut him, just take the big cap hit now and don't push money into the future for a guy that's already 34 and coming off an injury.

But of course, Tannenabum wants to spend more money on overrated free agents, so gotta have that cap space now!
