Offense: The offense has a lot of talent, but major questions at the most important positions. At QB, Tannehill got hurt again so they sign….Jay Cutler. I don’t get why anyone thinks Jay Cutler is good. He isn’t. He hasn’t thrown for 4000 yards since he was on the broncos. He is a downgrade for Tannehill, believe that. And just because he is in Adam Gase system, doesn’t mean that will translate to success. The running backs are really good led by workhorse Jay Ajayi. The wide receivers are also looking great. Jarvis Landry continues to be really good, a poor mans odell. Devante Parker has shown a lot of potential the last couple years, and is looking to breakout this year. The tight ends are okay, but not great. The o-line has a lot of questions outside of Pouncey. I like the Tackles with Tunsil and James, but they need to prove themselves. Overall, while there is talent, it all rides on the play of Cutler.

 

Defense: The defense looks good up front, but has questions elsewhere. Suh, Wake, and Hayes make up a very good d-line. They continue to produce despite getting up there in age, especially Cameron Wake. I don’t love the linebackers. Lawrence Timmons is older and in a new system, and Raekwon McMillan Tore his ACL. The secondary is young and needs more seasoning. The best player in the defense is safety Rashad Jones. He is great, but the rest of the secondary is young and inexperienced. Overall, this defense has pieces, but a lot of young players that are inexperienced, especially in the secondary.
