The Miami Dolphins see cracks in the AFC East Leaders for over a decade in the New England Patriots but can they penetrate them cracks will be the 2013 question? The Phins had a few Wells Fargo Trucks pull up after Draft Day to sign Free Agents and they wrote checks until Training Camp started. Now are the Good or Bad Checks we will soon find out.They have QB and 2012 Top Pick Ryan Tannehill of the Original 12th Man of College Station, Texas. Tannehill has a few new weapons in RB Lamar Miller and 2013 Prize Free Agent Catch in WR Mike "Da Kid" Wallace. Don't forget about Brian Hartline who is an nice 2nd WR. They also add from Gang Green Tight End Dustin Keller and take that Met Life Green. Tannehill take the snap and count to one and throw it is far as you can and you will still under throw him as he is ridiculously fast. The Phins also changed up on that O-Line as they lose former #1 Pick Jake Long to of all places the Rams...St. Louis or Ocean Drive...Damn Jake but we are talking Football! Twin #51 Pouncey will have that O-Line organized and ready to get after it.
The Defense went out and purchased Free Agent Backer Dannelle Ellerbe of the Purple Browns which shock the Ravens using that "We are a tight-knit Family" motto which has nothing to do with Dead Presidents and Ellerbe isn't from "A QB Driven League". They also add Backer Phil Wheeler from the Black Hole in the Bay. DE Cameron Wake is all of that and don;t forget 2013 Top Pick Dion Jordan from the "Quack Attack" Eugene who has some Ex-Phin DE/OLB and future NFL HOF Jason Taylor. That secondary has Brent Grimes whose Knee is from reports 95% and that is a huge boost. They also get CB Richard Marshall from the Bird Gang and just paid more money to SS Reshad Jones. C'Mon Phins it's your turn!

Offensively they are waiting for Tannehill to go 'Next level". Miller gives them a bigger and faster back than Bush whose also a HR Hitter.
Defensively they should be faster as they are younger and how fast will DE/OLB Dion Jordan develop? That Secondary is much-improved and the AFC East is no longer a Pats Division ...I think.
