Remember how some critics blasted the Dolphins last spring for not re-signing Olivier Vernon and Lamar Miller?
“Sometimes, when 70,000 people think you are wrong, you might be wrong,” ESPN analyst and former Tampa Bay GM Mark Dominik said at the time. “The hard part for me is they let two young, really talented players out of an organization.”
The Miller decision was justified, in retrospect, because Jay Ajayi was more productive last season. And while Vernon is a very good player, Andre Branch was better than serviceable for a far cheaper cost.
So why are we bringing this up now?
