Dolphins could have nearly $47 million worth of cap space

The Dolphins have given their fans reason for some degree of hope this year, particularly if quarterback Ryan Tannehill continues to develop.

They’re also in a position where they can offer him more help, and by extension more hope for the fanbase.

According to Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald, the Dolphins could have nearly $47 million worth of salary cap space to use this offseason, if they carry over this year’s unused room (part of which they used to extend Jason Trusnik’s deal through 2014).

Couple that with having five picks in the first 100 selections (via the Brandon Marshall and Vontae Davis trades), and Dolphins GM Jeff Ireland has an opportunity for an extreme makeover.

Of course, they have their own free agents to worry about (with left tackle Jake Long topping that list), but they are positioned to make some substantial moves.

For a team that needs multiple playmakers on offense if they want to give Tannehill an honest chance, it’s a good spot to be in.

WOW Better not let Bowe hit the Market

I'm splitting this out to avoid the obvious confusion. If I could be sure this was intentional, you'd be banned. Consider this a warning.

It wasn't intentional, I'm sorry thanks for moving it.

Lol! Glad I didn't see that, would've got the heartbeat going. I understand the reaction.

And you don't think it was intentional? Like he just "accidentally" searched for that thread and bumped it? Pleeeeeaaaase.

He catches a lot of shit for starting new threads about minor news and bumps threads with related news fairly frequently. I'd find it hard to believe that this was accidental, but I'm a softie. Suffice it to say, I won't be that nice next time.

Os fan is usually alright. This was just a slip up.

He does need to keep his ****ing trap shut during draft day, though.

Will do.

Now see, this is a perfect example how he truly contributes to the board. I wondered why that Bowe post got bumped, but I totally see why he would post it there.

The ONLY thing I have a problem with is the seeming need to use Twitter to one-up Marty and other guys that have real sources.

It's one thing to post a tweet from Adam Schefter, it's another thing altogether to post Schefter's ANSWERS to leading questions you've sent him on Twitter.
