Give the Miami Dolphins credit. They keep finding ways to make sure their defense is solid despite losing key pieces. However, they’re starting to rely a bit much on older players and that can prove dangerous. They’ve been trying to reload it with draft choices but the results to this point are mixed. Jerry Tillery should change that. This Notre Dame defensive tackle is emerging as a force before everyone’s eyes. It took some time but there’s no mistaking it. He’s big, strong, nasty and a guy who just wrecks blocking schemes with his ability to get into the backfield. He’s what coaches would call a “problem.” Miami loves having problems like that.
