Who is Jim Washburn and what are the Miami Dolphins getting by hiring him?

On March 18, the Miami Dolphins announced that they had hired Jim Washburn as a pass rush specialist and senior defensive assistant. What does this mean for the Dolphins and the defensive line? Are they getting the Washburn from his days in Philadelphia or are they getting the coach from Tennessee and Detroit? It depends on who you ask, but the Dolphins may have found the missing piece of the puzzle on the defensive line.

Back in January, Alex Marvez of FOX Sports reported that Jim Washburn, former defensive line coach for the Detroit Lions and Philadelphia Eagles, would be coming to the Miami Dolphins to serve in a assistant role on the defensive side of the ball.
