Is this youth wave a sign of a bold rebuild or a risky gamble?

Everybody knows what the Miami Dolphins lost this offseason. Today, the Dolphins Squad Show flips the conversation and asks a much more interesting question:What if these young Dolphins can actually play?Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber is joined by Dolphins insider Kyle Crabbs and former Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Jeff Zgonina to examine the young players and position groups that could outperform expectations during the 2026 NFL season.Miami enters the season with one of the youngest rosters in football, and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and head coach Jeff Hafley have made it clear that youth, development and opportunity are central to the organization’s new direction.The Squad begins by examining what Miami actually has rather than focusing exclusively on what the Dolphins lack.Then the spotlight turns to one of the most fascinating position groups on the roster: wide receiver.Could Malik Washington legitimately emerge as Miami’s leading receiver? Is 6-foot-4 rookie Caleb Douglas ready for a breakout season? What is Chris Bell’s ceiling now that he has returned from ACL surgery? Where does Kevin Coleman Jr. fit after flashing throughout training camp? And can Bobby Slowik use the versatility of this young group to create matchup problems across the formation?GRIES, Kyle and Z also dive into a linebacker room that suddenly looks much more intriguing than expected.Veteran Jordyn Brooks provides the foundation, but Miami made one of its boldest roster decisions by releasing Tyrel Dodson — who recorded 129 tackles last season — and handing major responsibility to rookie Jacob Rodriguez.What did Rodriguez show the Dolphins to win that job? How does Willie Gay Jr.’s hybrid versatility change Hafley’s defense? Can Jackson Woodard translate his turnover-filled preseason into defensive snaps? And where does versatile rookie Kyle Louis fit?Then the Squad selects Miami’s biggest potential breakout players on both sides of the football.Names include Caleb Douglas, Malik Washington, Chris Bell, Jonah Savaiinaea, Chop Robinson, Jacob Rodriguez, Dante Trader Jr., Chris Johnson Jr., Jackson Woodard and Keith Cooper Jr.Finally, attention begins turning toward Week 1 against the Las Vegas Raiders and veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins. Miami’s young linebackers and secondary will immediately face an experienced quarterback capable of identifying mistakes before the snap.National expectations for the Dolphins are extremely low.Now the young players Miami chose have an opportunity to change the conversation.The kids got the jobs. Now we find out if the kids can play.#MiamiDolphins #Dolphins #FinsUp #DolphinsSquadShow #NFL #MalikWashington #CalebDouglas #ChrisBell #JacobRodriguez #ChopRobinson #JeffHafley #MalikWillis\*\*\*\*\* 'LIVE' Miami Dolphins Commentary + Analysis from Miami Dolphins Defensive Tackle Jeff “Z” Zgonina, Locked On Dolphins' Kyle Crabbs and Host Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber.The Dolphins open the 2026 season in 2 weeks, and we will be right here 'LIVE' with your DOLPHINS SQUAD SHOW every Wednesday at noon ET, and after every Miami Dolphins game.-----Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicks Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/LOCKEDONNFL and use code LOCKEDONNFL and get $150 if you win your first $5 lineup!KALSHIFor a limited time,Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10.GametimeToday's episode is brought to you by Gametime.

Miami Dolphins enter captaincy week with leadership questions as Jeff Hafley puts the vote to players—who will step up in a roster full of fresh faces? Kyle Crabbs spotlights likely candidates like Malik Willis, Aaron Brewer, Zach Sieler, and Jordyn Brooks, examining what true veteran presence means for a unit returning only 21 of 53 players. Are the Dolphins destined for four, six, or more captains—with NFL trends seeing teams like the Chargers and Rams naming double digits? Crabbs breaks down Bobby Slowik’s arrival as offensive coordinator, asking if he’s the missing piece or just another wild card after mixed results in Houston. With Miami’s high-variance roster, the spotlight turns to new chemistry between Will Sheppard and Kyle McCord, practice squad churn, and the legacy of “Ray Feinga” 2.0—Ethan Bonner.

The Miami Dolphins’ preseason is over — and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan immediately went to work reshaping the football team. Following Miami’s preseason finale against Atlanta, the Dolphins finalized their initial 53-man roster and then unleashed another extraordinary wave of transactions, including seven successful waiver claims, eight new additions to the active roster and 26 total transactions in one day. Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber is joined by Dolphins insider Kyle Crabbs and former Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Jeff Zgonina to break down one of the most eventful roster weekends in recent franchise history. The show begins with what Miami actually learned from its 17-12 preseason loss to Atlanta. Jeff Hafley again protected most of his starters, Miami finished the preseason 0-3 and scored only one offensive touchdown all preseason — yet several young players continued to emerge, including Chris Bell, Jackson Woodard, Keith Cooper Jr. and Dante Trader Jr. Then the Squad dives into Sullivan’s massive roster overhaul. Miami claimed quarterback Brady Cook, tight end Justin Joly, offensive linemen Chukwuebuka Godrick and Jarrett Kingston, defensive backs Marcellas Dial Jr., Reese Taylor and Julius Wood, while also signing veteran defensive end Malik Herring. The Dolphins also completely rebuilt the quarterback room behind Malik Willis. Quinn Ewers was traded to Jacksonville, Kyle McCord was acquired from Green Bay, Brady Cook was claimed from the Jets and Mark Gronowski returned on the practice squad. Kyle breaks down what McCord brings after leading college football with 4,779 passing yards at Syracuse in 2024 and producing 446 yards and four touchdowns during this preseason. One of Miami’s biggest surprises came at linebacker. Veteran Tyrel Dodson — who recorded 129 tackles last season — was released after Miami determined rookie Jacob Rodriguez had won the competition. Willie Gay Jr. remains because of his valuable hybrid ability, while young linebackers Jackson Woodard and Kyle Louis also survived Miami’s roster overhaul. The Squad examines Miami’s youth movement, with players including Chris Bell, Caleb Douglas, Kevin Coleman Jr., Jackson Woodard, Keith Cooper Jr., Dante Trader Jr. and Chris Johnson all emerging from training camp as members of one of the NFL’s youngest rosters. GRIES, Kyle and Z also break down Miami’s new offensive-line depth, secondary additions, the injuries to Trey Moore and Kenneth Grant, the Jarquez Hunter/Tutu Atwell trade sequence, Bradley Pinion’s shaky preseason and where Sullivan may still look to upgrade the roster. Finally, the focus turns to the most important evaluation of Miami’s entire 2026 season: Malik Willis. Sullivan believes Miami has enough talent around Willis to properly determine whether he can become the Dolphins’ long-term quarterback. Now that roster construction is largely complete and Week 1 approaches, there are no more preseason excuses. The new Miami Dolphins are taking shape. Now they have to play. #MiamiDolphins #Dolphins #FinsUp #DolphinsSquadShow #NFL #MalikWillis #JeffHafley #JonEricSullivan #KyleCrabbs #DolphinsNews #DolphinsRoster \*\*\*\*\* 'LIVE' Miami Dolphins Commentary + Analysis from Miami Dolphins Defensive Tackle Jeff “Z” Zgonina, Locked On Dolphins' Kyle Crabbs and Host Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber.

Miami Dolphins shake up their 53-man roster, claiming a staggering seven players off waivers and flipping 15% of their lineup overnight.

The Miami Dolphins’ preseason is officially over following a 17-12 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, and now the real decisions begin.   Miami finished the preseason 0-3 while playing its established starters sparingly, including sitting Malik Willis and most of the first team for the final two games. Jeff Hafley has consistently emphasized health, evaluation and the value of Miami’s physical training camp and joint practices — but now the question becomes whether that approach has prepared the Dolphins for Week 1.   Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber and former Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Jeff Zgonina break down everything that happened against Atlanta and what it means for the roster.   The Dolphins failed to score a touchdown Friday, with Riley Patterson accounting for all 12 points, but Miami’s defense created three takeaways. Rookie wide receiver Chris Bell finally made his NFL debut after ACL rehab, Jackson Woodard continued his breakout summer with another fumble recovery, and several young players made final arguments for roster spots.   The show also examines the unusually heavy preseason usage of veterans Tyrel Dodson and Willie Gay Jr., Jacob Rodriguez’s injury, the loss of Trey Moore to ankle surgery, and the growing questions surrounding Miami’s depth.   Then GRIES brings in Kyle Crabbs’ latest 53-man roster projections, including the possibility that Miami still adds an outside quarterback, offensive lineman, edge defender and even a new punter after leaguewide cuts.   Who makes the receiver room? How does the Jarquez Hunter trade impact De’Von Achane, Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon II? Did Jackson Woodard force his way onto the roster? Is Chris Bell ready for a real role? And just how much roster churn could Jon-Eric Sullivan create before Week 1?   Finally, the Squad turns the page from preseason football to the real Miami Dolphins — Malik Willis, the starting offensive line, De’Von Achane, Caleb Douglas, Malik Washington and the group Jeff Hafley has largely protected throughout August.   The evaluations are almost over.   Now we find out whether Miami is actually ready.   #MiamiDolphins #Dolphins #FinsUp #DolphinsSquadShow #NFL #NFLPreseason #JeffHafley #MalikWillis #ChrisBell #DolphinsNews   \*\*\*\*\* 'LIVE' Miami Dolphins Commentary + Analysis from Miami Dolphins Defensive Tackle Jeff “Z” Zgonina, Locked On Dolphins' Kyle Crabbs and Host Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber.   The Dolphins open the 2026 season in 2 weeks, and we will be right here 'LIVE' with your DOLPHINS SQUAD SHOW every Wednesday at noon ET, and after every Miami Dolphins game. -----   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!   Gusto Try Gusto today at gusto.com/LOCKEDONNFL, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.   FanDuel Today's episode is brought to you by FanDuel.
