00:00
The Miami Dolphins may be going through a tumultuous offseason
00:03
in terms of what is the actual path forward for 2025.
00:08
GM Chris Greer in a news conference on Tuesday afternoon, Scott,
00:12
saying the Dolphins are exploring trade options.
00:16
Four-star quarterback in Jalen Ramsey, who came to Miami,
00:19
was supposed to be a big piece to help a defense led by Vic Fangio,
00:25
did not really amount to much.
00:26
Not so much in Ramsey's own individual performance,
00:30
just those heights for Miami.
00:32
They will be exploring a trade for Jalen Ramsey.
00:35
No trade conversation right now for Tyreek Hill.
00:39
Scott, you are a Dolphins fan.
00:41
You're Finns team, kind of in this weird limbo area
00:44
between being mediocre and a playoff contender of sorts entering 2025.
00:51
What do you make of the path moving forward this offseason for Miami?
00:55
Yeah, it's not a good sign, Ben.
00:57
First off, they're not going to be able to trade him.
00:59
The dude's making $25 million next year.
01:01
No one's picking that up.
01:03
And even if they were, even if there was some team crazy enough, Ben, to pick up that contract,
01:08
that would be a $49 million-plus cap hit for the Dolphins.
01:13
I mean, you talk about, it's not so much, okay, we want to trade a player away.
01:17
That happens in the offseason.
01:19
It's a bad sign.
01:20
You know, over the last couple of seasons, the Dolphins were like a destination.
01:24
That was the place to go.
01:25
You know, teams that really, really want to win, what do they do, right?
01:28
They pick up veteran players like a Jalen Ramsey, sacrifice a fourth or fifth-round draft choice
01:32
because they want to win.
01:34
Now, it's like everyone's getting out of town.
01:36
You know, Tyreek Hill didn't end up getting traded, but that was the first domino.
01:40
He announced, you know, months ago that he wanted out, changed his mind, whatever.
01:43
And now it's like the Dolphins are just cleaning house, showing the world that they're willing to rebuild
01:48
and not hold on to these veteran players.
01:50
And now no one wants to sign with the Dolphins.
01:52
You know, there was a point, like I said, at time where it was like, okay, we got Boy Wonder as their head coach.
01:56
We got Tua.
01:57
We got Tyreek Hill.
01:58
Waddle.
01:58
Everyone wanted to go there.
02:00
Let's go get some veteran players.
02:01
They did.
02:02
And it bombed out.
02:04
So, them trying to trade Jalen Ramsey, again, they're not going to be able to.
02:08
But it's just a bad sign that the Dolphins are going in the wrong direction.
02:11
Yeah, Scott, I think it's a really good point.
02:14
We'll see what the market is if there is one out there for the 30-year-old corner in Jalen Ramsey.
02:20
A lot of financial investment, of course, into Ramsey as well.
02:24
Throughout his nine-year NFL career, seven times a Pro Bowler, not last year in 2024,
02:29
but his first year in South Florida in 2023.
02:32
A three-time AP first-team All-Pro performer, but not during his days with the Dolphins.
02:38
It was kind of a sign of the times, though.
02:40
When you added a guy like Jalen Ramsey, you were bolstering that veteran experience
02:44
to try to push you over the hump, to be a true conference contender, to win a division.
02:50
Scott, frankly, to win a playoff game, something the Finns have failed to do since the year 2000.
02:56
Now, going on 25 seasons since Miami last won a playoff game.
03:01
We'll see you next time.
