Earlier this week Miami Herald’s Adam Beasley stated that the Miami Dolphins brass “fully expects” quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick to return and play next season. Fitz is currently not under contract, but if the Dolphins do bring back the veteran journeyman will this team be able to make the playoffs next season?
According to Spotrac, the Dolphins head into the offseason with the most cap room in the league with $94 million in cap space. The Dolphins also currently own 14 draft picks in the 2020 NFL draft, including three first-rounders.
Many expect the Dolphins to bring in a whole new roster, but what pieces will best turn this team’s fortunes similar to the San Francisco 49ers, who went from coaching in the senior bowl and owning the second overall selection to playing in Miami for the shot at a Super Bowl.
