The NFL’s wave of roster cuts begun yesterday and with it comes no shortage of temptations for the Miami Dolphins. If the Dolphins are intent to work over the waiver wire from yesterday’s cuts, there are a number of talents who would be home run propositions for the team given where Miami sits in their roster rebuild. Who, among Friday’s reported cuts, makes the most sense for the Dolphins?
Here are three waiver wire candidates the Dolphins should consider.
RB Dare Ogunbowale
Pass catching ability. Special teams skills. These are the hallmarks of Ogunbowale’s game — and that makes him an enticing option for the Miami Dolphins. Yes, the Dolphins boast Jordan Howard and Matt Breida at the top of the depth chart. But Ogunbowale is a more experienced version of Patrick Laird — and Ogunbowale offers an impressive resume on the special teams units. The only reason Ogunbowale is on the waivers is because Tampa Bay signed Leonard Fournette to go along with 2020 3rd-round pick Ke’Shawn Vaughn and 2018 2nd-round pick Ronald Jones — making the former Wisconsin Badger an unfortunate casualty to more prominent names in the running game.
