Saturday Miami Dolphins Mailbag: 5th WR, Defense Outlook, Baker and LBs, and More


Part 1 of the new SI Fan Nation All Dolphins mailbag:

From Reza Hariri (@Therealrezpect1):

Favorite Dolphins WR of all time. The battle for the 5/6 WR spot comes down to Williams, Sherfield & Bowden. I think Bowden & Williams possess more upside and unique traits for this offense, but it will come down to production. You like Sherfield to make it, besides contract why?

Hey Reza, my friend, I’m going to answer the favorite question as I always do, giving one name for a player and one name for a person. As a pure player, the one name that jumps out at me is Davone Bess, who wowed in his first camp as a rookie free agent by the way he was always open. It was uncanny. As for my favorite WR as a person, hmm, let’s see … I might be guilty of recency bias, but I think I might go with Isaiah Ford, who’s just a genuinely terrific guy. As for the question about the 5/6 WR spots, I don’t like Sherfield to make the team, I LOVE Sherfield. As, yes, a big part of it is the fact the Dolphins just signed him to a three-year contract, but there’s also Mike McDaniel’s familiarity with him and Sherfield’s experience as a gunner, where he will take over for the departed Mack Hollins in that role. I’d say he’s about 90-10 to make the 53-man roster.
