Free-agency grades for every NFL team (so far)

Similar to the vision we saw from the Cleveland Browns the past few days, we saw the future of the Miami Dolphins defense as free agency unfolded. Brian Flores looks to be building a man coverage, pressure defense similar to what he coached in New England, and the additions reflect that thinking. Byron Jones gives Flores another talented man coverage corner, and gives the Dolphins the highest-paid CB tandem in the league between Jones and Xavien Howard. Kyle Van Noy gives Flores a Swiss Army knife type of linebacker, who can pressure passers or drop into coverage. Shaq Lawson gives them an option on the edge, as does Emmanuel Ogbah. They had money to spend, and they added a ton. Do not forget, they also have three first-round picks.
