Man I love my team but I'am not sure I can list 15 players without adding some from the early years...Dan really did not have that much great talent to work with during his tenure IMO, and considering how below average we've been since his retirement, umm, I mean I guess I can list some players that I liked, but "favorite" is a pretty endearing term.
Dan
Dwight
Jake
Ricky
Mark Clayton
Mark Duper
Crash
Richmond
Irving, and I don't mean spikes Fryar.
Chad Pennington

Born in 74, so never saw the Dynasty teams. Heres mine: Some obvious ones and several personal favorites
1. Dan Marino - #1 reason Im a Dolphin fan today
2. Mark Duper - #2 reason
3. Mark Clayton - Loads of great memories from my youth!
4. Dwight Stephenson - It was great knowing that your young QB had a rock to lead the OL
5. Zach Thomas - I remember when he came into the league, beat out Jack Del Rio and dove offside during the season finale to try and steal the ball from the opposing Center.
6. Jason Taylor - After years of no QB pressure, JT finally gave us an outside pass rush.
7. John Offerdahl - Couldnt stay healthy but what a player. Had he stayed healthy in the AFC Champ. game vs the Bills, we might've had a chance
8. Ricky Williams - What a ride! Always admired him despite his troubles and would love to meet him one day. And that one season when he ran for 1800+ yards was exhilarating.
9. Chris Chambers - Never had a QB to throw him the ball, but what an athlete! Always felt he couldve been a perennial pro bowler on a team with a functional passing game
10. Hugh Green - Oh what could have been with him leading our defense. So psyched we got him, saddened by his injuries. Another "what if" player.
11. Bobby Humphrey - Loved him in college, was stoked we acquired him, hated how it ended. We needed a running game desperately and I thought he was the answer.
12. Cameron Wake - Building his legacy as we speak - four more years!
13. Louis Oliver - Liked his attitude, enthralled by his physicality and intimidation tactics, wished he was better in coverage, but loved him all the same
14. Sammie Smith - After Marino, probably my favorite ever draft pick. I was so bummed he didnt pan out. Fumblitis + Idiocy = :(
15. Troy Vincent - Another draft pick I loved - we also got Marco Coleman in the first round that year - he was our first good DB in many years. Bummed that we let him walk in FA. -

no liquor cabnet opened but thanks for your input anyways .
i may not have the exact dates but i was trying to put a list of players after the 72 - 73 season and if I'm not mistaken only Kuech played closed to that time frame but i could have made a mistake. -
I found an interesting comment from Bob Lilly, a Dallas Cowboy member of the famed Doomsday Defense and a member of the Hall of Fame.
I first played against Kuechenberg in Super Bowl VI, and I realized he was one of the best offensive linemen I had ever seen”
