Wake will be a unanimous choice, as would probably Carpenter. Who else? Fields? Dansby?

Including your picks, Long, Davis, and Marshall

Vontae, Long, Marshall, Soliai (stepping his game up big time), Dansby and the ones you mentioned.

Oops, I somehow forgot about Bess.

Marshall, Long, Davis, Bess, Dansby, Carroll, Jones, Langford, Soliai, Starks, Wake, Misi, McDaniel, Carpenter, Fields, Smith. I dare someone to give me a good enough reason not to keep one of these players.

assuming we could fill all the holes with an upgrade but I would keep.....
Nolan
odrick
soliai
wake
dansby
davis
smith
carroll
clemons
long
carey [st a pay cut]
jerry
marshall
bess
fasano maybe, pretty much every one else has become expendable, IMO. -
Marshall, long, brown, bess, and polite for offense. Wake, Dansby, Davis, smith, starks, and most important for our defense mike Nolan.

Great Defense with HOF Strahan.
You're kidding? -
That's because it is intangible. Heart or dedication as others would call it is there. A player either has got it or he doesn't. 4 shoulder surgeries and countless rehab hours behind the scenes speaks for itself.
Other such players who have/had it:
Dan Marino
Jerry Rice
Zack Thomas
Jim Kelley
Warren Moon
Wes Welker
Davon Bess
Michael Vick -
I would keep everyone on the Defense because the offense needs upgrades so bad the defense can wait a year. Maybe another LB but thats it with Crowder being the guy I'd let go.
Offense Ronnie and Henne need to go As well as two or three of the lineman. AND DAN HENNING. -
But no, if I were starting from scratch I would want better, more consistent Corners than Vontae and Smith.
What has Vontae been besides inconsistent? Spectacularly good one game,conspicuously absent the next.
And Smith is neither the hitting machine you would expect from a guy his size, nor consistently good in coverage.
Truly GOOD Corners are two things: consistently good in coverage, and able to create turnovers. These guys are neither.
You could argue that they will develop, but I don't see it there. -

Long
Marshall
Bess
Polite
R.Williams
Chad Pennington (hes a coach, but give him the 3rd QB role)
Wake
Davis
Smith
Bell
Dansby
Misi
Langford
Crowder (you need a mouth sometimes)
Carpenter (top 5 K IMO)
Fields (top 5 punter and hopefully special teams player of the week after his Jets performance)
Mike Nolan

I'm sure theres a wire photo somewhere you can use, and a mugshot on Dolphins.com. -

Absolute Keepers (not necessarily all sure starters, might want to upgrade, but only players I can definitively say I want on the team next year, no matter what):
ST's: Fields & Carpenter & Denney.
D: Cam Wake; Davis; Dansby; Soliai; Odrick; Misi; McDaniel; Langford; Carroll; Edds;
(Can't say "absolutely" on Smith - he's inconsistent at times; I don't think he has the dedication and serious maturity that Vontae does; and he can't catch; just sayin' not "absolute").
O: Jake Long; Jerry; Marshall; Bess; Wallace.
Coaches: Mike Nolan; Darren Rizzi; Bill Sheridan.
Above all, with respect to keepers: the entire offensive staff must be gone - plus, gut the entire offensive office, replace the drywall ... everything; burn their furniture, carpeting, everything goes to the fire.smahtaz likes this. -

I would keep everyone and then upgrade the positions that make sense through the draft and free agency.
