<p>The Miami Dolphins 2011 offseason was puzzling.  Owner Stephen Ross interviewed Jim Harbaugh leading to speculation that he would replace Tony Sparano, only to keep him as coach. MLB Channing Crowder retired before the season, and the team traded for the high-profile RB Reggie Bush.  Bush proved to be a decent back notching career highs in touches, pairing with rookie Daniel Thomas as Miami finished 11<sup>th</sup> in rushing offense.  The distracting offseason led to a stumbling start for the Fins.The Miami pass game was mediocre (23<sup>rd</sup>) despite having all-pro WR Brandon Marshall with QBs Chad Henne and Matt Moore. Miami fired Sparano, and replace him with Todd Bowles who went 2-1.</p>
<p>The Dolphins 3<sup>rd</sup> ranked run defense was anchored by NT Paul Solai, ILBs Karlos Dansby and unheralded Kevin Burnett.  The Fins pass defense proved worse (25th), as team often double teamed Cameron Wake with no other pass rush. Vontae Davis proved to be a #1 CB late in the season, Sean Smith is a solid #2, and Yeremiah Bell had a good year.   After wooing Jeff Fisher, the Miami Dolphins decided that Joe Philbin, OC of the Green Bay Packers would be the next coach.  The next moves will likely assembling offensive weapons in a manner, which replicates what Green Bay has done so well. This is after all, a copycat league.</p>
<p><strong>3 Questions for the Upcoming Offseason: </strong></p>
<p><em>1) Who should be the Quarterback of the 2012 Miami Dolphins?</em></p>
<p>The Dolphins started Chad Henne and Matt Moore last year at QB.  Henne disappointed as an injury prone early 2<sup>nd</sup> round pick, and Matt Moore proved why he is a fringe starter.  While Henne looks like he will likely be released, Moore will likely be retained as a backup and startable option.  A large reason that Miami brought in Joe Philbin was to improve the maligned passing offense.  The passing West Coast system will attract free agent option Peyton Manning, and Matt Flynn.  Manning, the league superstar, will have suitors, but a big attraction of Miami would be the amount of control Peyton has on the offense and his ability to recruit additional offensive weapons.  Flynn would be a good fit as he has proven to know the offense, is more mobile and younger.  The Dolphins could use Manning to increase the talent of this team, and potentially challenge for a playoff spot with other key additions.   While Manning’s injury history may scare off other teams, Matt Moore is capable enough to play, and the Fins could add a developmental project to learn from the former MVP.  Miami may be Manning’s best play but it will depend on how much control they are willing to cede to him, and if Philbin would rather have his familiar QB play.</p>
<p><em>2) What should the Dolphins do on defense?</em></p>
<p>The Miami defense was actually pretty good, but a new coach means change.  The Fins will move from a 3-4 to a multiple D hybrid in hopes that the versatility will combat the versatile AFC East offenses they face.  Miami will have to hope Dansby and Burnett, who notched 105 tackles, can play in space.  The main issue was the pass rush for the Dolphins, however the shift in defense will require versatile rushers that can also play in coverage.  A strong consideration for the 1<sup>st</sup> round pick should be Alabama OLB Upshaw, who has experience in both.  Another safety could potentially pay dividends when facing rivals Gronkowski, Herandez, and Keller.</p>
<p><em>3) So is this team only a Quarterback away?</em></p>
<p>No. There is a lot made of Quarterback play in today’s NFL, but Miami will have to help out whoever it is.  Brian Hartline didn’t impress as the WR2, and could be bumped to WR4, as Davone Bess was pretty good in the slot.  Adding a threat like James Jones, an acquirable Packer, a FA like Reggie Wayne, or a mid draft pick could pay dividends to this team’s success. Additionally, the Fins will have to rebuild their line.  LT Jake Long is FA after 2012, and will need to be extended (which could free up some $).  Meanwhile, the Fins right side of the line RG Vernon Carey, and RT Marc Colombo are both free agents. Tackle Lydon Murtha looked decent in the preseason but missed the year with injuries.</p>
