Quote:In my giant Suh post yesterday, he was one of the two guys they likely needed to cut in order to have enough money to sign Suh. Randy Starks being the other one. Miami signing Suh would make it a lot tougher to match a sizable deal for Charles Clay.

 

NFL.com says the Dolphins will cut LB Philip Wheeler. Although performance could have been a factor, Miami obviously was thinking about his salary too.

Quote:Miami is expected to make a hard push toward signing top free-agent prospect Ndamukong Suh. To do that the Dolphins need as much cap space as possible -- prior to Wheeler's release they sat anestimated $9.5 million under the cap. Wheeler might not be the last casualty from South Beach before the market opens on Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET.

 

I don't see how the Dolphins can match any offer because other teams know about their cap situation and that they can overpay Charles Clay to pry him away.
