## Resource

Miami Dolphins spark a youth movement, churning 15% of their roster with seven waiver claims after 53-man cuts. Is this the start of a ground-up rebuild, or a bold bet on unproven talent? Kyle Crabbs and Joe Marino spotlight John Eric Sullivan’s no-nonsense approach, examining Miami's draft-and-develop philosophy and commitment to staying young—even as they absorb record-setting dead cap space. Key topics include the decision to avoid high-priced veteran "mercenaries," Malik Willis's standing as the Dolphins’ potential QB of the future, and how Miami’s new leadership team is reshaping roster strategy. The conversation also explores the contrast with teams like the Arizona Cardinals, NFL roster age trends, and what the influx of rookies means for long-term sustainability. Can Miami sustain this bold direction, and will a franchise quarterback soon emerge to steady the course?
