đ´BREAKING NEWS! MIAMI DOLPHINS NEWS TODAY NFL 2025 MIKE MCDANIEL TUA TAGOVAILOA TYREEK HILL
Breaking news! Something big just went down in Miami, and trust me, this could change everything for the Dolphinsâ season. The kind of move that could either push this team closer to the Super Bowlâor completely blow up in their faces if they handle it wrong. And let me tell you, the drama behind the scenes is real. Weâre talking about contract battles, bold trades, and a rookie that the front office was desperate to grab, even jumping ahead of a division rival to get him. But hereâs the question that nobodyâs talking aboutâdid the Dolphins already make a mistake before Jonah Savinia even plays his first NFL snap? Iâll explain exactly why I think so, and it has everything to do with Chris Grier still running this team. He shouldâve been fired a long time ago, and yet here we are, watching him gamble with this roster again.
But before I give you all the details on whatâs really happening behind closed doors, smash that like button if youâre a true Miami Dolphins fan, especially if youâve been riding with this team for over 20 years. And if you bleed aqua and orange like I do, drop this in the comments right now: âGo Dolphins! We can get to the Super Bowl!â
Now, let me tell you what really went down and why this move could either save this offensive lineâor turn into another Grier disasterâŚ
It finally happened. The Dolphins have signed Jonah Savinia to his rookie contract, ending what felt like an unnecessary and embarrassing saga. Jonah, the 37th overall pick, was the only unsigned Dolphins draft pick, and it dragged on far too long. Miami eventually gave him a fully guaranteed four-year rookie deal worth just over $2 million annually. Itâs not a huge contract, so why the delay? Did the Dolphins cave? Were they trying to play hardball over pocket change when they traded up for him because they believed in his talent? This is exactly the type of nonsense that drives fans crazy with Chris Grier still in charge. You trade up to grab a guy you love, then fight over the guaranteed money? Come on.
But at least itâs done now, and Jonah can finally join the team for training camp. And let me tell you, this kid could change the entire dynamic of the offensive line. He brings versatility we desperately need. At Arizona, he started at right tackle, then switched to right guard, and even played snaps at left tackle. He can slot into multiple positions, but all signs point to him starting at guard in Miamiâmost likely right guard, where I believe he fits perfectly. His run-blocking skills in zone schemes make him ideal for Mike McDanielâs offense, which thrives on outside zone runs, tosses, and stretch plays. Jonah isnât just big and physical; heâs athletic, smart, and built for this system.
This is exactly why Miami drafted him instead of a player like Tyler Booker from Alabama, who struggles in space and fits better in power-gap schemes. Jonah is tailor-made for the Dolphins, and heâs already drawing comparisons to elite guards in the league. Veteran James Daniels even said Jonah reminds him of Isaac Seumalo, one of the best guards in football. Thatâs high praise and a sign that the locker room is already impressed. Jonah is hungry, texting vets for advice, staying late after practice, working hardâthis kid wants to be great.
And letâs be honest, this offensive line needs greatness. Last year, the unit was flat-out embarrassing. Bottom five in PFF grades, bottom five in pass-block win rate, bottom six in run-block win rate, and dead last in rushing first-down percentage at a pathetic 20.7%. That is unacceptable and the main reason the offense collapsed late in the season. Itâs why Tua was under constant pressure and why the run game disappeared in short-yardage situations. If Jonah is as good as advertised, he could be the spark that turns this offensive line from a weakness into a strength.
The Dolphins have gone younger and more physical this offseason, moving from one of the oldest rosters in football to one of the youngest. Jonah Savinia, James Daniels, Aaron Brewer, Kenneth Grant, Zeke Biggers, Jordan PhillipsâMiami is building a trench-first mentality. And letâs not forget, Miami snatched Jonah right from under the Patriots, who were reportedly set to draft him with the very next pick. Thatâs a win in itself. But hereâs the question that matters most now: where exactly should Jonah play? Right guard, where heâd be sandwiched between veterans Austin Jackson and Aaron Brewer for stability, or left guard, where heâd line up next to rookie Patrick Paul, forming a young but potentially dynamic duo?
All right, picking up right where we left off because this is where things get really interesting. The placement of Jonah Savinia on this offensive line could determine just how effective this group will be, not only in pass protection for Tua but also in opening up the run game that has to improve if Miami wants to contend deep into the playoffs. Iâve been watching this team for years, and I can tell you one thing: you can have Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Raheem Mostert all you want, but if the offensive line collapses like it did last year, it wonât matter. So letâs break this down like a chessboard because thatâs exactly what it isâone wrong move, and this whole line falls apart.
Jonah at right guard makes the most sense for one simple reason: balance. Think about it. You already have a young left tackle in Patrick Paul, who is a first-year starter. Why on earth would you pair him with another rookie and risk communication breakdowns on the blindside? Thatâs asking for disaster, especially in big games where Tua needs every fraction of a second to get the ball out. If you put Jonah at right guard, you slot him between Austin Jackson, who when healthy has been solid, and Aaron Brewer, who was a top-10 center last year. Thatâs stability. Thatâs how you ease a rookie into the NFLâsurround him with veterans who can guide him through his first season. Itâs just smarter football.
Now, some argue that putting Jonah at left guard next to Patrick Paul could build long-term chemistry between two young, athletic linemen. And look, I get the logic. Both are physically gifted, and they could grow into a dominant duo in a year or two. But this team isnât trying to win in two years; the time is now. You donât gamble with Tuaâs health or risk sabotaging a Super Bowl window just to develop chemistry for the future. Jonah is NFL-ready, yes, but you still have to put him in the best position to succeed immediately.
And donât forgetâthis offensive line was one of the worst in the league last year. They were soft in short-yardage, couldnât move defenders off the ball, and had almost no push in the run game. That has to change. Mike McDanielâs offense depends on consistent zone blocking, creating lanes for stretch runs, and giving Tua the ability to play action without defenders crashing down instantly. Jonahâs athleticism and ability to get to the second level is exactly what Miami has needed for years. If this offensive line stays healthyâand thatâs a huge ifâthe Dolphins could go from being one-dimensional to finally having a balanced attack.
And thatâs the key to beating teams like Kansas City or Baltimore in the playoffs. You canât just rely on throwing the ball 40 times a game. You need to be able to grind out first downs, control the clock, and wear defenses down. Jonah Savinia can help do that, but only if this coaching staff makes the right decision on where to play him. Iâll say it againâright guard should be his starting spot, at least to begin the season. Build confidence, build chemistry with veterans, then you can think about moving him around if needed.
Another thing worth noting is how big of a cultural shift this represents. For years, Miami was known for bringing in aging veterans and trying to patch holes instead of building through the draft. This offseason, they finally changed that, going younger and tougher. Jonah represents that shift perfectly. And letâs be realâthis wasnât Grier suddenly getting smart. This was desperation. Heâs been on the hot seat, fans are fed up, and if this offensive line fails again, thereâs no excuse left. Itâs playoffs or bust. Grier surviving another failure would be a disgrace.
Now hereâs what I want from you, Dolphins fans, because youâre the heart of this teamâs energy. Do you believe this offensive line, with Jonah Savinia starting, can finally be a top-10 unit in the league? Can they stay healthy enough to give Tua the protection he needs and open up the run game? Or are we setting ourselves up for another disappointment? Drop your thoughts in the comments, type âTop 10â if you believe this line can be elite, or âSame old Dolphinsâ if youâre still not convinced.
Before you go, make sure you hit that like button, subscribe to the channel, and stay tuned because Iâll keep breaking down everything thatâs happening with this team as training camp unfolds. And donât miss the videos on your screen right nowâIâve got full breakdowns of the offensive depth chart and how Miami stacks up against the AFCâs top teams. Go Dolphins! We can make this the year, but only if this O-line finally does its job.
And let me add this, because itâs something every Dolphins fan needs to keep in mindâthis isnât just about Jonah Savinia, itâs about setting a tone for the entire franchise. For years, the Dolphins have been known as a flashy team with speed on offense but soft in the trenches. That has to change if we want to be taken seriously as a true contender. Jonahâs signing, the youth movement, and the focus on physicality are the first real signs that Miami might finally understand that games are won in the trenches. But understanding it is one thing, executing it is another.
If Jonah develops the way many believe he will, this could be the piece that solidifies an offensive line thatâs been a liability for way too long. But thatâs a big âif.â The Dolphins cannot afford another season where the offensive line ranks near the bottom in every major statistical category. They canât afford another year of Tua taking unnecessary hits or the run game being completely shut down in short-yardage situations. This is why his role is so important, and why his placement on the line has to be strategic, not experimental.
So, Dolphins fans, I want to hear from youâdo you trust this coaching staff to make the right call with Jonah Savinia? Or are you worried theyâll mismanage this and waste his rookie season? Drop your opinion below because this could be the difference between a playoff run and another year of frustration.

Anything is possible but we have to stay health
Chris Greer does not give the lines much priority in his thinking , That is why we have these types of issues.
Top 5
Now we just need 2 CBs and a backup OLman
Dolphins are disgusting and an embarrassment getting rid of Van ginkle calias Campbell and Jonnu Smith zero loyalty to great players we should have got CB Shavon Revel at 48 and 98 OT Charles Grant a stupid organization
I think the Dolphins should get OG Brandon Schreff and rotate Jonah Savaiinaea at guard and tackle because Daniels is coming off injury and Austin Jackson is injury prone
Well he ain't that Arizona this is the AFC East this is the NFL this ain't no joke there's going to be guys quicker smarter and faster and bigger than he is plus can he stay healthyđŽ
Well it's about time we went and got some offensive line help and got younger and got smarter what the hell we been waiting on Chris Greer hello Chris Greer hello wake the hell up or get the hell out been looking like a junior varsity football team from high school
Well let's hope the Miami Dolphins can stay healthy because you need every play in practice and in the game to get better and better and better to where you can compete with the elite
Will coach Weaver have defense ready to go we are hurting when it comes to pass defense and this is a passed happy NFL especially in the AFC
And you know this ain't going to be a light switch process for the Miami Dolphins this year it's going to take a little while anything worth building is going to take a little while chemistry what if you want to call it Unity whatever you want to call it however you want to word it it's going to take a little while and it's going to take a lot of giving from each team member to finally be a unit that people look up on the schedule and say damn we got to play the Dolphins next week wow they are fixing to play another team that's the kind of squad I want to see in South BeachđŽ
You know that's a stupid question can you believe that this offensive line can be a top-tier division in the league they better believe it and I'm about what the fans believe but you know even if the fans believed it you got to make the rubber touch the road before you go forward you can have all the best a good football team it's like having a top-notch quality car you can have all the essentials Beauty speed strength etcetera etcetera etcetera but you got to go out there and operate that car run it Goodrich Chevrolet number 3 Goodwin Chevrolet run that bad boy like he was made to run
I see us finishing third in the AFC East behind New England and buffalo I don't know which one of those two teams will be stouter but anyway we just ain't going to stay healthy that's been our number one Achilles heel for the last 5 or 6 years and you know sadly the NFL has become a business nothing but money so it really don't matter to me anymore how we finish because the sport has sold out to the show in glow standard bunch of young millionaires running around on the field just going through the motionsđđŽ
Look it not just the offensive line. Its also McDaniels play calling and his mistakes and time mangment as well. His challenges need to be more suppressed and stop killing our time out's before we need them. His challenges to calls on the field are horrendous fails. Keep that red flag in your pocket Mike! Let's talk about balanced offense who cares if Hill has 200 yrd receiving. We need to run the ball and need to spread the passes out to more than just one or 2 guys. Tua needs to get alot better at his reads and stop staring down the reciver. He needs a stronger arm to take the cap off the top of defenses. Their is so much more to say. But like Paul Harvey says, "And now the rest of the story."
