  1. Martin Mayhew is spot on, they/he will be thankful. I think the Dolphins are going to regret signing Suh as well. Not from a lack of production on Suh’s part, but a financial one and a depleted roster at other key positions. They never REALLY had the money to give him to start with and with him being a DT on top of that.
    I certainly don’t see his signing as something that is going to push the Dolphins into the playoffs, They’ll surely regret it, maybe not this year but beginning in 2016, they’ll see what a mistake they’ve made. When Suh signed with the Dolphins it was all about the money, because the Dolphins aren’t going anywhere for a while.
