Former Dolphins TE raves about Steelers deal w. Miami

Joe Rose from WQAM joined the show. Joe talked about the Steelers-Dolphins trade from the Miami perspective. He said it’s been a mostly negative reaction from fans even though it felt like Jalen Ramsey was heading toward a divorce with the Dolphins. Joe thinks Ramsey can play inside or outside corner and wouldn’t be stunned if he could play a little safety, trying to fill the void left by Minkah Fitzpatrick. Joe is optimistic that the pairing of Ramsey with Mike Tomlin will work. Joe said something went south with Ramsey and Mike McDaniel, but it’s mostly water under the bridge. Joe is interested in how that first press conference goes for Ramsey in Pittsburgh. Joe played tight end in the league, so the guys didn’t think there was a better person to ask about Jonnu Smith. Joe said Smith is ‘as good as any pass receiving tight end as anyone in the league.’ Joe raved about Smith’s YAC numbers. Even at 30-years-old, Joe said Smith is entering his prime and could not say enough good things about him. This whole conversation made it sound like the Steelers got a bargain out of this deal. Joe caught the first touchdown pass from Dan Marino, but he doesn’t have the ball. The guys asked Joe about some old Marino stories.
