Insights on the broader NFL coaching carousel, Miami’s cap challenges, and the uncertainty of the 2026 season guide the discussion. Can Jeff Hafley’s staff surprise critics and build a foundation for long-term success? Share your predictions for Miami’s path forward.

Miami Dolphins fans are on alert as linebacker Jordyn Brooks becomes the prime candidate for a major contract extension. With Brooks fresh off a first-team All-Pro campaign and the Dolphins staring down significant cap room after 2026, does making him one of the NFL’s highest-paid off-ball linebackers make sense for the franchise’s rebuild?
Host Kyle Crabbs puts contract numbers under the microscope, comparing Brooks’s performance and age to peers like Fred Warner, Roquan Smith, and Zach Baun. The episode explores new defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley’s influence, Miami’s linebacker coaching focus, and how upcoming cash flexibility impacts the team’s long-term roster construction. What is the right offer — and will the Dolphins act decisively with a leader in his prime? Get the latest insight on cap strategy, extension philosophy, and Miami’s evolving nucleus.
