Former first-round pick Christian Wilkins is entering the final year of his rookie contract and it doesn't sound like an extension is being discussed during the season. Miami didn't want to meet his asking price and instead inked Zach Sieler and Alec Ingold to new contracts before Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers — was it a good idea?

The entire defense is working to learn a new system and a handful of players look to be paid soon — does keeping Wilkins off the books help avoid future headaches?
