Veteran Marcus Maye gives new DC Anthony Weaver more options in the secondary
Very specifically, having Maye joining fellow veteran newcomer Jordan Poyer and returning Jevon Holland gives Weaver the ability to do something his old team, Baltimore Ravens, did with a lot of success last season: use three safeties extensively.
The Ravens also were one of only two teams that had three safeties play at least 600 defensive snaps last season, along with the Dallas Cowboys.The Dolphins didn't use their safeties nearly that extensively last season, though Jevon Holland's knee issues and Brandon Jones' return from his 2022 ACL injury was a factor.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, it would make sense for Weaver to make full use of all of them, which means a lot of three-safety usage. Another factor is that the Dolphins don't have the same kind of established veteran at cornerback beyond their top two of Jalen Ramsey and Kendall Fuller.
