Tunsil Boosts Miami Dolphins' O-Line

Gilbert Cary analyzes the Miami Dolphins' offensive line following the recent addition of rookie Laremy Tunsil.

Last season for the Miami Dolphins was one of consistency. Not consistent in terms of legacy like the longtime rivals New England Patriots, but consistent as in “Ryan Tannehill goes down” or “Ryan Tannehill sacked again.” The 2015 season was much of the same for Ryan Tannehill, who finished Top 5 in the league in getting sacked for the fourth season in a row. Consistency. Tannehill has been sacked 184 times since entering the league in 2012 and through it all, has maintained an epitome of toughness, a trait the Miami Dolphins have valued enough to extend his contract through the 2020 season with a grand total value of $96 million with $45 million guaranteed.
