Here is the cap
http://overthecap.com/salary-cap/miami-dolphins
I like the depth chart because it allows a quick visual with depth on what we really need
I see
Guard x's 2 maybe even 3 if we cut Dallas Thomas
QB don't know this guy and would rather have more confidence in a backup
Wr x's 3
TE x's 2
DT to back up Suh
LB to back up for McCain

Over the cap is a great site, someone needs to tell them Wheeler was cut though.

Wait...You want 3 more receivers and two more tight ends?? I'll give you we need one more receiver...but three? And I think many of these players that we need are for depth...And when you start getting into your depth on the oline or defense, you're in trouble...see last year for the perfect example. You can't simply carry starter quality backups as depth AND have very good/elite players as starters. It seems to me that there is alot of handwringing going on over players who should never, ever see the field.

Ideally we add 7-9 guys on our roster from the depth. If you can get 2-3 starters and another 2-3 contributors, you have a pretty good draft.
Looking at last years draft, it was pretty good by our standards. We got 2 starters, potentially 3 if Turner develops, and 2-3 contributors(Aikens, Tripp, Fede).
If we can find a couple of free agents along with our draft and address remaining positions of need(G, MLB, FS, CB, WR) I think were are in good shape. -
Backup QB will likely be solved via post draft cuts as some veterans are released due to a team picking up a rookie. Believe it or not there are some quarterbacks outside of Mariota and Winston. Bryce Petty for instance. Someone will draft these guys and when they do some veteran will get the axe.
That's when we can also flesh out the position as well. -
Get a grip. There are professionals in place, clearly with a plan that they are working on. Enjoy it. If the season tanks, then complain. -
