Dolphins sign second-year DT Robert Cooper

A day after parting with Teair Tart, the Dolphins added a new defensive lineman to the mix.

A day after parting with defensive lineman Teair Tart, the Miami Dolphins replaced him on the roster with second-year defensive tackle Robert Cooper on Wednesday.

Cooper, 24, is a Florida State alum who signed with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent in 2023 and spent his rookie training camp with the Seahawks and Philadelphia Eagles.

Prior to his time in a pair of NFL camps, Cooper was a 2022 All-ACC Honorable Mention and finished his Seminoles career with 12.5 tackles for loss and two sacks.

The Dolphins signed several defensive linemen to one-year deals in free agency after allowing both Christian Wilkins and Raekwon Davis to leave in free agency. For now, newcomers Calais Campbell and Benito Jones are listed as starters with Jonathan Harris, Neville Gallimore, Da’Shawn Hand, and Brandon Pili among those competing for snaps and roster spots.

The deadline for Miami to cut its roster to 53 players is on Tuesday, Aug. 27.

Seahawks Roster Moves: Interior defensive line tinkering continues

Today comes word of yet another change to the team’s iDL depth up front.

Since the 2022 season ended the Seahawks front office has seemingly been obsessed with turning over their interior defensive line rotation. One can forgive them for being disappointed with the results last year, but the non-stop churn has been a real eye-opener.

Today comes word of yet another change to the team’s iDL depth up front. Veteran nose tackle Roderick Perry II – who signed only a few days ago – has been waived to make room for former Florida State nose tackle Robert Cooper, who spent time with the team earlier this offseason.

Seattle has also been busy on the other side of the line of scrimmage. Yesterday the team announced that they have re-signed former Washington State offensive lineman Liam Ryan, who spent last season on the practice squad.

Jaguars 7-round mock draft: 9 potential targets after free agency

What position should the Jaguars target early in the 2023 NFL Draft?

The first two weeks of NFL free agency were more about subtraction than addition for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

While the team reportedly aimed to keep offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor and pass rusher Arden Key, both players signed elsewhere last week. Taylor signed a massive deal with the Kansas City Chiefs and Key joined the Jaguars’ division rival, the Tennessee Titans.

Jacksonville signed running back D’Ernest Johnson and reportedly agreed to terms with a couple defensive lineman, but none of those additions will change the team’s draft plans much.

With the 2023 NFL Draft now less than a month away, here are nine prospects who could make sense for the Jaguars:
