1 pending free agent Dolphins should target from each AFC West team

The 2020 NFL free agency window is quickly closing in —  here’s one player from each AFC West team for the Dolphins to look at.

Las Vegas Raiders – Offensive Tackle David Sharpe

The Raiders’ free agent group looks about as inspiring as the Dolphins’ outgoing talent — there’s not a lot to choose from here for opposing football teams. Safety Karl Joseph warranted some consideration, but ultimately the Dolphins are going to have great opportunities elsewhere across the league and draft to attack a potential starting safety — and durability is a concern for Joseph. Tackle David Sharpe is a massive body with some notable movement skills for his stature — he’s been almost exclusively a backup through his first three NFL seasons but he’s also still just 24 years old.

Signing Sharpe to a short-term deal and trying to coax out his physical talent is a low risk, potentially high reward roll of the dice.
