NFL Free Agency: Most Intriguing Waiver Wire Additions
By Erik Lambert
Justin Hunter (WR, Miami Dolphins)
This might be the one that draws the most attention. Justin Hunter is a former 2nd round pick who showed all sorts of promise during the early part of his career in Tennessee. Still there always seemed to be something that got in the way. Most of the time it was injury problems but he also got into trouble off the field. This lack of dependability soured the Titans on him and they chose to cut the cord. Now the Dolphins are ready to see if they can turn him around.
Adam Gase is about the best hope he could have. Known for being a creative play caller who accents the strengths of his personnel, Gase will know just what to do with Hunter who is a 6’4″ receiver with deep speed. What remains to be seen is whether Hunter is committed to getting past his ugly exit from Tennessee. No doubt he’ll have to earn his way on a depth chart that already features Jarvis Landry, DeVante Parker and Kenny Stills.
