What do you think of the Miami Dolphins players who asked to be traded after their blowout loss in week 1 of the 2019 NFL season?

It’s not that surprising considering the Dolphins have been in rebuild mode all offseason. They’re playing exactly like how they were projected to play. But still, a Dolphins defense featuring FS Minkah Fitzpatrick, SS Reshad Jones, outside CBs Cordrea Tankersley & Xavien Howard, & slot CB Bobby McCain (looks ok on paper) should not have any reason to justify allowing 5 passing touchdowns. The Dolphins are also starting a veteran journeyman backup QB in Ryan Fitzpatrick, who can be pretty good as a spot starter & nothing else. They have a promising but underwhelming 2nd option in Josh Rosen, who’s starting to look like a bit of a draft bust. They have no WRs besides a very average Devante Parker plus two depth guys in Jakeem Grant & Albert Wilson. Kenny Stills is gone, and so are Laremy Tunsil & Ja’Waun James. They have a first-year head coach in the midst of all of this. Nothing went right for the Dolphins this offseason & they simply didn’t make the right moves. It’s not surprising, then, that they are seeing their own players quit on the team.

They have every right to voice their fustration and make their complaints heard and have the right to contact their agents to see if theres a way to get out of a bad situation, but ultimately it will be all for nothing. The best thing for these players to do is just play to the best of their ability so they will look good among NFL scouts. Regardless of the situation even if its the worst one, they are still obligated to fulfill their contract obligations.
