This week in Dolphins talk

The shows spent the week breaking down a Dolphins roster they see as severely depleted. There's concern about dead cap money and years of missing draft picks leaving Miami thin, though some optimism around De'Von Achane in the run game and Malik Willis's mobility. The talk also touched on rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez stepping in after the team released Tyrell Dodson, and whether offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik can improve from his Houston run-game struggles.

Written by The Cutdown's reader from this week's clips.

6 clips · 32 min. Some clips only play in the app.

In this week's clips: Jacob Rodriguez, Will Levis, Quinn Ewers, Malik Willis, Chop Robinson, De'Von Achane, Kenneth Grant, Patrick Paul.
