Wide-reciever

2017 – DeVante Parker, Kenny Stills, Jarvis Landry, Jakeem Grant, Leonte Carroo

2018 – Parker, Stills, Grant, Danny Amendola, Albert Wilson, Carroo

Miami had one major change to this group during the off-season and that was the trade of Landry out of Miami. As much as Dolphins fans hated the move it was necessary for a variety of reasons. The Dolphins are hoping that Amendola and Wilson can give the team a more dynamic and well-rounded presence on offense. Giving Tannehill more options on the field and perhaps forcing him to look elsewhere rather than throwing it to Landry.

None of these guys are going to post 100 catch seasons with the Dolphins but they don’t have to. Ball distribution helps open offensive passing games and we should see more of that in 2018.

Leonte Carroo is on his final leg and there is no guarantee that he will beat out returning receiver Isaiah Ford who spent 2017 on IR.
