Dustin Keller will not fit in at Miami

By: Michael Tellier

 The Miami Dolphins made some big moves in the offseason, on both defense and offense. As a Miami Dolphins fan myself I was thrilled with some of the acquisitions and trades that they made.  Getting rid of TE Anthony Fasano and picking up Dustin Keller was not one of them.

Fasano has proven time and again that he is a valuable and reliable weapon on offense.  He has great hands, can shake tackles and he can block.  He was also one of the most underused offensive weapons for the Dolphins which I could never understand.  The Dolphins decided to get rid of him after they acquired Keller from the Jets on the fourth day of the free agency period.  Now it’s not that I don’t think Keller could help them, but I don’t think he’s the TE that Fasano is by any means. 

Keller is also coming off the 2012 season where he was sidelined for a huge portion of the season and recorded a career-low 28 catches for New York.  The Dolphins had a guy that they could count on before on third down and short.   After getting rid of Fasano and picking up Keller I believe they lost that.
