Now that most of the NFL’s 32 teams have a couple of preseason games under their belts, it’s time for the third round. Week Four will basically consist of the lower tiers of the depth charts facing off as coaches make their last cuts and try to keep their starters healthy for the first week of the regular season. For each of these picks, though, we’ll be looking at how the starting units should fare against one another as they should stay on the field through halftime, if not the end of the third quarter. And remember to check the current NFL preseason betting odds before placing money on any of these games.

Miami Dolphins at Philadelphia Eagles (Thursday, August 24, 7:00pm ET)
The Miami Dolphins will be looking for some redemption after taking a 31-7 shellacking at the hands of the visiting Baltimore Ravens last week. The Philadelphia Eagles come off a 20-16 home win over the Buffalo Bills, which should give them some confidence going into this match up. Last year, Miami’s offense was more productive than Buffalo’s, and the Eagles’ defense is not as solid as Baltimore’s. Even so, I like Carson Wentz to out-duel Jay Cutler as the Eagles ride their grinding style to a home win.Joint practices with the @MiamiDolphins start now. #FlyEaglesFly pic.twitter.com/f2mHIMl4E7
