Moves the Miami Dolphins haven’t made on their roster, good or bad

Connor Williams is at that point where his value and production will start to slide for the Miami Dolphins but an extension is still smart.

Williams moved from guard to center last year and despite a few high snaps, he played very well and proved that he can switch positions. Now, the Dolphins should look at his contract and save some money.

Williams is in the final year of his contract and will count $8 million against this year’s salary cap. That isn’t bad for a starting center but there is a lot of room to play with here.

Only $2 million of William’s salary is guaranteed and the Dolphins could reduce his entire salary this year to around $2 million total by giving him another year or two on his contract.

Williams isn’t going to break any banks and considering his free agent contract with Miami was only for two seasons, he likely isn’t going to see longer deals in free agency next season. So save $4 or $5 million and extend him on a team-friendly deal for another season or two with easy outs down the road and still give him decent monetary guarantees that won’t cripple the team.

Truth is, Williams is good enough to play another couple of years and he is one of the better offensive linemen on the team. Next year, the Dolphins are going to need to finally find a solution at right tackle. No need to keep center as one as well.
