Chris Grier has to be it. This is the year we truly get how badly he has fucked us over a number of years, leading up to this realization. Our cap is a toxic mess. Our list is gutted. Our next GM and coach barely has a chance to survive this.

After Tua's cut is added, this has to be close to a record of dead money any team has carried into a season. Almost all of those first, second and third round picks during the rebuild have now been written off or gone elsewhere. What a waste of an opportunity. This team is going to take years to be relevant again... and probably long after Ross is dead after bankrolling this disaster.  

Grier is quite possibly the worst GM I have ever seen.   And I've seen some bad ones.

We are seriously fucked for at least three years. Think about that.

Please stop with this nonsense. The 2027 cap will be fine for Miami even with Tua's and possibly Chubbs contracts on it next year...unless they do something stupid like try to sign a $30M QB or something. 2026 is a nightmare, beyond that though is not an issue. Now that doesn't mean the roster will look fine, that's going to take a lot of work to get into shape, but it's certainly doable. That's the whole reason this new GM was brought in. If he can't fix the roster in 3 years then he was the wrong guy for the job, end of story.

NYJ took on all of Minkah's salary in the trade, which gives MIA ~$10M in cap room for 2026.
It was a salary dump.  The 7th round pick (which is from LAC) is basically just a throw in.

And you are getting a whopping 2026 7th round pick.  The Jets have two -- no word on whether it is the one Tenn or Buf.

That's just ridiculous.   You give up a top safety in the league for a seventh round pick??    I could take a shit and get a seventh round pick out of it.

$33M of dead cap poison from Tua's contract is going to drift in to 2027 (let alone anything else).  

We are seriously fucked for at least three years. Think about that.

DEN took an $85M cap hit to cut Russell Wilson in 2024 and immediately made the playoffs that season; the following year they were the #1 seed in the AFC, with Russ as the top paid player "on the team."

The NFL is a league where any team can instantly go from the garbage to winning in the playoffs.
2025 Patriots, 2024 Commanders, 2023 Texans, 2022 Giants, 2021 Bengals, 2020 Buccaneers, 2019 49ers, etc.

This is where we are at right now...  burn it down.

Ps. I think most agree we won the trade shipping his ass out with Ramsey to the Steelers for Minkah in return.

Well, maybe for one year.

Playing pass the parcel in a Belfast pub just ended in Miami tonight, and it blew up.

Oh shit, Minkah's now been traded to the Jets.

This has really become a slash and burn exercise. There is little to no leadership players leading into 2026. Expect the worst.

thus ending what is quite possibly the dumbest series of front office decisions in the history of football

tanking for tua...wasted draft pick... and then doubling down with the worse contract extension ever...

Add the Minkah deals on top of that gigantic brown emoji
