Denver had to do this.  Or they would be forever reminded that they could have drafted Josh Allen.

True but now lack firepower to move into top 1-3 to draft a QB.  I’m totally good with this move.  I was worried the Phins would package picks to move up.  

 

That post you quoted is fake news. Dolphins have 0 1st round picks next year

Which is going to get interesting because Hills cap number goes from $6 million to $31 million next year. They have quite a few guys with cap numbers that go up dramatically in the next 2 years; Ogbah, Hill, Howard, etc. 

so do we

They have a pretty solid front 7. Going to get a lot of pressure on teams with Chubb, Ogbah, Phillips. Add in Wilkins, Davis, Ingram, Baker and with Howard and Holland in secondary. Solid D that got a lot better. 

 

Yes, easily elevates them to the 3rd best team in the AFC IMO

Not keeping the player they took instead the full 5 years of his rookie deal kind of seems worse.

Cap numbers are a mirage as teams just restructure themselves out of trouble, especially as the cap rises. Hill will do the same.

They had to do something 

 

Their Blitz rate was 28.4% to Buffalo's 14.7%.  Buffalo has more sacks 21 to 15, a higher pressure rate 22% to 14.8%, Hurry% 5.5 to 4.7, and knockdown % 10.2 to 5.9.

 

Their pass rush was trash without blitzing basically.  26 sacks in 49 games isn't elite pass rusher to me.  He's a good player but not a gamechanger.  

 

I agree he isn't elite. He is in the next category down though. His main issue has been staying healthy. 

 

As for the Phins defense... Josh Boyer wants to blitz and play man outside a lot anyway. Sure their pressure rate without the blitz has been poor. Jaelen Phillips was always a candidate to come back to earth a bit. He had 8.5 sacks as a rook but not a load of pressures. And it was a bit 2019 Mario Addison like... repeating that conversion rate was always unlikely. Will they blitz less with Chubb? Maybe. But I wouldn't imagine a lot less. They are stylistically a blitz team.
