15 HRS AGO - Photo by Harry How/Getty Images Who needs an “RB1” anyway? Chase Edmonds was gearing up for his fourth season in the NFL when asked who may be the starting running back in Arizona, considering the team added former Pittsburgh Steeler James Conner. “I hate the term RB1,” Edmonds said nearly 11 months ago. Edmonds registered a career-high of 903 yards from scrimmage in just 12 games last season while Conner found the end zone for an eye-popping 18 touchdowns. Since then, Edmonds has traded in his Cardinals red for aqua and orange, but it’s hard to imagine his thoughts on a true “lead” running back have changed. Edmonds, who is entering his fifth year in the NFL, was one of the first signings the Miami Dolphins made in free agency. General Manager Chris Grier didn’t stop there, acquiring both Raheem Mostert to bolster a running back group that features Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed, who combined for more than 200 rushing attempts and nearly 800 yards on the ground in 2021.

1 DAY AGO - Photo by Joel Auerbach/Getty Images Jake and Josh are back with Chapter 3 of Phinsider Radio’s NURSERY book club. In this episode, Jake and I discuss veteran receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. Here are the officially unofficial show notes: Cedrick Wilson Jr, Miami’s ONE TRUE SLOT Wide Receiver Drafted in the 6th round of the 2018 NFL draft. (208-overall) Signed a 3-year deal worth more than $22M, 12.75M guaranteed at signing Last season, only Cooper Kupp, Davante Adams, and Tyreek Hill had more touchdown catches from the slot among receivers than Wilson’s six. Son of San Francisco 49ers WR Cedrick Wilson SR. 6’2, 200 lbs. He has that DeVante Parker size but can work the slot like a technician. Without question, he will be third on the Dolphins’ depth chart and the player most likely to start in the slot. What are your expectations for Wilson? Is he being overlooked in Miami’s loaded offense? Only Cody Core and Preston Williams are taller receivers than Wilson on the Collapse

1 DAY AGO - Jasen Vinlove-USA TODAY Sports The Miami Dolphins have spent the offseason retooling their roster, particularly when it comes to the offense. A major focal point for those changes was improving the offensive line, looking for better pass protection and more open running lanes in 2022 after a disappointing 2021. Signing tackle Terron Armstead and guard/center Connor Williams and creating competition for the other three starting positions appears to have the Miami offensive line headed in the right direction. But does the fan base agree? Have the Dolphins done enough to keep quarterback Tua Tagovailoa upright and create space for running backs Chase Edmonds, Myles Gaskin, Sony Michel, and Raheem Mostert? In our recent SB Nation Reacts poll brought to us by DraftKings Sportsbook, we asked Dolphins fans if they are confident in the re-tooled offensive line. The fans are behind this version of Miami’s line. Nearly two-thirds of the fans seem to think Miami may have Collapse

2 DAYS AGO - Photo by Chris Graythen/Getty Images Welcome to the Splash Zone, the quickest way to get your day started off right. We bring you a rundown of Miami Dolphins news from the last 24 hours. The Miami Dolphins wasn’t that great last season for a variety of reasons. So the team decided it needed some changes and they made a big splash at wide receiver when they traded with the Kansas City Chiefs for Tyreek Hill. Hill brings game changing speed to an offense that needed to add more playmakers during this offseason. But before trading for Hill, the team added Cedrick Wilson Jr. who brings some versatility to the slot position. The Dolphins also made sure to bring back Mike Gesicki and Durham Smythe, to keep their tight end room together. You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.

2 DAYS AGO - I GUARANTEE IT! If you don’t have any interest in Madden 23, this article probably isn’t for you. But if you’re a fan of Madden, the Miami Dolphins, AND/OR you own one of those shiny NEW video game systems, well, then hear me out: Madden 2023 is #good this year. Now, I know I said this before. And it’s true; I get way too excited for this game every year — like a power stronger than Vecna takes over. But this time, it’s me. And this time, I put in the hours and can confirm. It’s good. Like, the Jets went 2-12 and fired Robert Salah in the first franchise I simmed, kinda good. For my very, very early gameplay impressions, check out my article for Operation Sports. These impressions, however, will focus primarily on the Miami Dolphins and how they played in this year’s game, how the players looked, and their X-factors — but I WILL NOT post ratings because they were clearly placeholders. So, without further ado, here are my Miami Dolphins, Madden 23 Beta Impressions. Collapse

4 DAYS AGO - Photo by Joel Auerbach/Getty Images Welcome to the Splash Zone, the quickest way to get your day started off right. We bring you a rundown of Miami Dolphins news from the last 24 hours. The Miami Dolphins running back room is going to look a little different this season. Duke Johnson and Phillip Lindsay are gone while Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed aren’t guaranteed roster spots. Over the offseason, the team made it a priority to add some new blood to the unit. It started off with the addition of Chase Edmonds, followed by Raheem Mostert and Sony Michel. We are potentially looking at the top-3 backs on the roster right there. Mike McDaniel plans to use a running back by committee approach, so all three of those guys could get equal amount of opportunities on any given gameday. But if you had to choose one, which of the running backs will put up the most yards this season? You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below. Saturday Miami Collapse

5 DAYS AGO - Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports [Spoiler Alert: Yes, yes he can!] In Chapter 2 of Phinsider Radio’s critically-acclaimed NURSERY book club, Jake and I discuss Miami Dolphins pass-rusher, the lean machine, Jaelan Phillips. Our local super hero @houtz dropped Chapter 2 of the @thephinsider book club last night. We talk second-year pro Jaelan Phillips and what consistency means going into year two: https://t.co/i4jDTv4Dxl— Jake Mendel (@JMendel94) June 24, 2022 First, Jake and I dive into Jaelan Phillips’ 2021 NFL season and project how some of Miami’s offseason moves will impact the second-year player. How big of a role will veteran linebacker Melvin Ingram have? Should Miami use some of the bigger guys up front in early downs? What must Phillips do to get better in 2022? Would the Dolphins be better in 2022 with Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris, or did they make the right call with Phillips? We then discuss what Phillips is doing this offseason to Collapse
