Fins closing in on OT Clabo
Fins close in on Clabo
Per multiple media sources and his agent, the Miami Dolphins are finalizing a contract with former Atlanta Falcon OT Tyson Clabo.
Chad Speck, the agent for Clabo, announced that his client would be signing with Miami.
Clabo, undrafted out of Wake Forest in 2005, bounced around with a few teams before finally finding a home in Atlanta. Clabo went to the Pro Bowl in 2010, and received a 5 year contract from the Falcons the following year.
Clabo was released last month in an apparent salary cap move.
Terms of the one year deal have not yet been released, but Clabo will man the right tackle spot, signaling that the Fins intend to move Jonathon Martin to the left side.

AFC East Draft Grades
CB Dee Milliner was a solid pick for the Jets
There has been much media discussion with the Dolphins trade up for DE Dion Jordan. And most pundits have been favorable to this year’s Miami Dolphins draft.
But what about the rest of the AFC East? What about the teams that Miami squares off against twice a year?
Buffalo Bills – Trading down from #8 to #16 netted QB E.J. Manuel, LB Kiko Alonso, and TE Chris Gragg.
Can the accuracy issues Manuel displayed at FSU be corrected? I have my doubts because accuracy is rarely a trait that figures itself out (see Jake Locker) in the NFL. Manuel has the athleticism, character, and arm talent to justify the risk-reward, though.
2nd and 3rd round WR’s Robert Woods and Marquise Goodwin add weapons to an offense that needs them.
Grade: C+
New York Jets – CB Dee Milliner is no Darrelle Revis, but he was the BPA for the Jets at #9 with LB Barkevious Mingo and WR Tavon Austin off the board. I disagree whole-heartedly with the pic Continue reading
Fins 3rd round picks…
OT Dallas Thomas
With the 77th pick, the Miami Dolphins select OT Dallas Thomas out of Tennessee. Thomas was a starter at left tackle for two years, but was moved to OG his senior season.
Thomas suffered an injury at the Senior bowl and was unable to work out at the Combine.
The Fins then trade the #82 pick to the New Orleans Saints for the 106th and 109th picks.
Miami traded back into the 3rd round, taking the Packer’s #93 overall pick and selecting Utah St. CB Will Davis. In return, Miami gave up a fourth rounder #109, a fifth rounder #146, and a seventh-rounder #224.

Fins select CB Jamar Taylor at #54
CB Jamar Taylor is now a Fin
The Dolphins have selected CB Jamar Taylor from Boise State with the 54th overall pick.
Last year, Taylor had 51 tackles, 2.5 sacks, and 4 INTs, including one in the bowl game against Washington.
I think Taylor will challenge for serious playing time in the Fins backfield.

WR Bess trade details
WR Davone Bess has been traded to the Cleveland Browns. The Dolphins gave up the 111th pick, the 217th pick, and Bess for the 104th pick and the 164th pick. They now have three picks in the 5th round (146, 164, 166)
The Fins swapped 4th rounders…..got a 5th rounder, and gave up a 7th rounder.
