Losing Brent Grimes hurts for Miami and adding Byron Maxwell through the trade with Philadelphia which brought them here to #13 in the first place will certainly help, but there’s more which needs to be done to make the Dolphins’ defense what it was supposed to be last season.

Eli Apple from Ohio State is a physical corner with man and zone cover skills and would be a good running mate to go with Maxwell.

An improved pass rush featuring Ndamukong Suh and new addition Mario Williams will also help the Buckeye become a contributor in his first year.
