Phew, at least 30%-40% less missed tackles on the defensive side!

I was convinced last year that Poyer was gone and would be a Dolphin, so I had already moved on prior to the surprising news that he was re-signing. No hard feelings from me. I enjoyed having him around for another season with Hyde, but it's time to upgrade.

This is about making his family happy and preparing for retirement.

This feels like a reverse Charles Clay situation. Poyer will have an average season but in the 2 games against us, he’ll have 14 tackles, 5 pass deflections and 2 INT’s with one being a pick-6.

He's old and oft injured. Like Hyde. Tre' White too injured now too. Won't miss any of them. Won't miss Gabe Davis. Won't miss Mitch Morse. Only will miss Leonard Floyd.

Who do we have that’s equal or better than the guys we lost? No one.
Who can we get that’s equal or better? Probably some options out there but we don’t have the cap to make it happen.

Won't miss disappearing for the last 8 games Floyd either.

Once again, no one knew who he was when he came here. He made his name here. They will do that again. Not worried in the least bit. They will get younger, stronger, and faster while Poyer & his wife will become South Beach celebrities. I care about the football, not the celebrity stuff. Stop the hanf-wringing just because you don't know who's going to man the position right now. My goodness. The need for instant gratification isn't a good look.

You must have been sleeping, because Floyd didn't disappear in those games. You should re-read Football 101.

Didn't disappear. Period. In fact, his tackle output was fairly consistent throughout the season. In fact, he equaled his season total in tackle in the Pittsburgh wildcard game with one tackle for loss.

Of those 7 solo tackles (after Jets game) wouldn’t it have been swell if they were on the QB while he still had the ball?

We would have kept him around had that happened.

No. He’s a money mercenary.

In his only season with the Dolphins, Thomas ran for 136 yards on 28 carries and no rushing touchdowns while having sixteen receptions for 117 yards and one receiving touchdown in nine games.

Plus, he only played in one of the games against the Bills and gained 50 total yards from scrimmage.
