Title: Dolphins off-season/cuts etc.. Post by: DaLittle B on February 16, 2017, 01:53:12 pm So we knew Brandon Albert's cut,I'm happy about this...
The team is releasing starting left tackle Branden Albert, defensive end Mario Williams, defensive tackle Earl Mitchell and cornerback Ifo Ekpre-Olomu. from Miami Herald Blog.http://www.miamiherald.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/armando-salguero/article133096369.html (http://www.miamiherald.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/armando-salguero/article133096369.html) While I kinda think the Alberts kinda half expected,not too surprising,Mitchell I'm a touch to the surprised side. Title: Re: Dolphins off-season/cuts etc.. Post by: Dolphster on February 16, 2017, 03:42:50 pm Yeah, the Mitchell cut was the only surprise. Nice that they will save $4M of his approximate $4.6 for the coming season. But I don't feel very comfortable with the idea of Jordan Phillips starting next to Suh. With all of the athleticism that Phillips has, he has been inconsistent and possible even been an under performer.

@gunnerhal: OK, here's the deal: Branden Albert isn't being released, at least not yet. Appears a team might want to trade, so Dolphins holding off. Hal Habib @apoupartFins: .@MiamiDolphins did NOT release Branden Albert Thursday. They did let go of DE Mario Williams, DT Earl Mitchell and CB Ifo Ekpre-Olomu. Title: Re: Dolphins off-season/cuts etc.. Post by: Phishfan on February 16, 2017, 05:47:57 pm Why the surprise about Mitchell? I think he was mentioned in most articles discussing salary cap cuts for next year. The thing that surprises me, Misi isn't on the list.

Post by: DaLittle B on February 16, 2017, 07:58:31 pm On Mitchell, I'm not like OMG holy shit...But mildly surprised,as I did see him as a possible cap casualty.Read Barry Jackson's tweet,and saw the article about Mitchell had "internal support" obviously it wasn't enough. It made me raise my eyebrows....as in ok...
I do agree with Misi... Title: Re: Dolphins off-season/cuts etc.. Post by: DaLittle B on April 01, 2017, 11:39:24 am Dion Jordan was released yesterday (while the site was down) We got like 3.5 mil in salary,and cap savings (I saw tweeted)
