    Thought of this when I saw Baker, and it reminded me off all the not-great Dolphins players who have dwelt on the roster year-after-year, outlasting coaches, superstar teammates, and beat reporters... without ever becoming well-known.

    These are the guys you barely know, rarely saw play, but read their name over and over in practice reports.

    I'll start with...

    Ryan Baker
    Jeff Zgonina
    Todd Perry
    Anthony Alabi

    Feinga is good.

    I agree that Denny is a starter, which is why I didn;t list him. But his IS an overlooked starter who most fans probably don't know!

    Denny probably has been the most consistent player on this team. Not hearing anything about him is a great thing.

    Todd Perry was the starting RG the entire time he was a Dolphin. The only similarity between he and Alabi is they were both O-linemen.

    Zgonina started 14 games for us one year as well, and was in the regular rotation on the DL during his time here.

    Not your fault. El padre started it off with the wrong spelling, and from then on it was monkey see monkey do.

    If I had not pointed it out, then Stitches would have. ;)

    gotta be Quentin Moses or Twan Russell...Pat Devlin owns the practice squad title fo sho.

    However, these choices were from the 2000's. I would say either Jim Jenson, Don Strock or Nat Moore (technically not starters) for all time.

    Most disappointing would be when Shula chose Eric Kumerow over Chris Spielman, he seemed to linger.

    Not sure how long he was actually here but I felt Travis Minor was here forever.
