The Palm Beach Post thinks Dolphins LG Richie Incognito "might" have to compete with third-round rookie G/T Dallas Thomas for the left guard job.
Incognito, 30 in July, has started 47-of-48 games since joining the Dolphins, and he has just one year left on his deal. Pro Football Focus graded Incognito out as its No. 14 left guard in 2012. The Dolphins can save $4.3 million against the cap by releasing him. Thomas is a natural fit for Miami's zone-blocking scheme. May 5 - 7:31 PM

Dolphins LG Richie Incognito is a candidate for offseason release.

A poor fit for Joe Philbin's zone scheme, Incognito is due $4 million in 2013 and doesn't have a long-term future with the Dolphins. He won't be guaranteed a roster spot if Miami upgrades its line in the draft or free agency. Pro Football Focus graded Incognito as the No. 24 overall guard in their year-end ratings.
Jan 19 - 7:30 PM

Dolphins LG Richie Incognito left Sunday's game against the Jets with a neck injury.

Nate Garner replaces him in the lineup. Incognito finished as a slightly below average left guard according to Pro Football Focus. He will not return for the remainder of the game.

Dolpins LG Richie Incognito (ankle) is expected to return to game action this week.

Nate Garner shined as a spot starter last week, but Incognito's ankle has "responded real well to the treatment" the past few days. Center Mike Pouncey (neck) is also expected to play after returning to a full practice Thursday.

Coach Tony Sparano said Richie Incognito will play left guard again this season.

There has been some question about whether Incognito would line up at left guard, right guard or center. With Nate Garner and John Jerry settling in for a competition on the right side, the decision has been made. The Dolphins are banking on continuity to help improve their woeful run blocking from a year ago.

The Dolphins remain undecided on Richie Incognito's position for the 2011 season.

Incognito's ability to play guard or center gives the Dolphins flexibility heading into the draft and whatever passes for free agency this year. What seems certain is that Joe Berger is headed back to a reserve role.

Dolphins re-signed C/G Richie Incognito to a three-year contract.

The coaching staff had soured on Incognito at guard because he struggled mightily on pulling blocks. The local beat writers expect him to push Joe Berger out of the center job, opening up left guard for Nate Garner. The O-Line interior was in need of a major overhaul this offseason. We've seen nothing to suggest the run blocking will be significantly improved in 2011.

The Dolphins are not expected to re-sign impending free agent LG Richie Incognito.

Miami's run blocking was a mess last season, so it's no surprise that they're looking to overhaul the interior. The Dolphins will have to find a replacement in free agency or the draft, with John Jerry likely staying at right guard.

Omar Kelly of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel claims that Miami's offensive line is the team's "deepest unit", and "should serve as the strength of the 2010 Dolphins".

We're not so sure that hot-headed free agent Richie Incognito, playing for his third team in three years, and third-round draft pick John Jerry constitutes an overall upgrade. Furthermore, the starting center position is still undecided between Jake Grove and Joe Berger. Quantity does not always translate to quality.

Dolphins coach Tony Sparano raved about RG Richie Incognito's "fast-twitch" power.

The Dolphins' offensive line is known for its power, a trait that Incognito also possesses. "He's knocking people down with his hands," said Sparano. Miami will have one of the top offensive lines in the league once again this season. Incognito will be an asset if he avoids boneheaded penalties.

Coach Tony Sparano confirmed that Richie Incognito is penciled in as the Dolphins' starting right guard.

Nate Garner would then have the upperhand on the left guard job over Donald Thomas, with Justin Smiley sitting squarely on the trading block. Smiley's asking price is believed to be a third-rounder, though the Dolphins will likely have to settle for a lesser pick considering his injury history.
Tue, Mar 23, 2010 09:06:00 PM

Dolphins reached agreement with G Richie Incognito, formerly of the Bills, on a one-year contract.

The Bengals and Colts were also linked to Incognito, an unrestricted free agent. If he can keep his temper under control, Incognito will likely push Donald Thomas and Nate Garner for the right guard job while upgrading Miami's already strong run blocking. Look for the deal to be incentive laden.
Wed, Mar 17, 2010 10:13:00 AM

The Dolphins reportedly made an offer to free agent G/C Richie Incognito Tuesday, but it "didn't blow anyone away."

Talks are expected to continue on Wednesday. Though the Colts have also shown interest, Incognito shouldn't expect much guaranteed money considering his history.
Tue, Mar 16, 2010 10:04:00 PM

After his Monday night/Tuesday meeting with Dolphins brass, free agent G/C Richie Incognito is scheduled for a phone interview with the Colts.

The Colts would presumably fly Incognito to team headquarters if they were serious about signing him. A longtime head case, Incognito wants to prove that he can "be accountable for my emotion both on and off the field."
Tue, Mar 16, 2010 03:11:00 AM

The Bengals are hosting free agent G/C Richie Incognito on Monday.

Incognito has a trip to Miami lined up for Tuesday. In Cincinnati, Incognito could be an option to succeed 33-year-old free agent RG Bobbie Williams.
