Choose your fortune-telling device of preference. Peer into those crystal balls, deal out your tarot cards or shake that Magic-ball.

Let’s take a look at training camp and see which veterans won’t survive the final cut. To keep the list somewhat manageable, let’s consider only players who are entering their third NFL season or more.

Here are some candidates (some much stronger than others), and feel free to add your own:

Greg Camarillo, WR: hate to see the charismatic overachiever go, but he’ll need to make a strong impression to stick on a roster loaded with special-teams standouts.

Travis Daniels, DB: with six safeties on the roster (seven, counting Jason Allen), Daniels will need to stand tall in camp.

Trey Darilek, OL: was brought in by current front office, but hasn’t been able to make an NFL roster since 2005.

Jay Feely, K: wouldn’t seem to be in jeopardy, but the Dolphins have signed not one, but two competitors.

Junior Glymph, LB: like Darilek, was brought in by current regime but without solid credentials; didn’t play last year and has eight career NFL games in four possible seasons, changing teams four times along the way.

Andre Goodman, CB: another class act in the locker room, but there are only so many jobs to go around (eight corners are listed on the roster).

David Martin, TE: eighth-year player who caught 34 passes for 303 yards and two TDs last year; Dolphins have brought in Bill Parcells favorites Anthony Fasano and Sean Ryan.

Rob Ninkovich, DE: a waiver-wire pickup in 2007 by former GM Randy Mueller has been inactive 23 times since.

Justin Peelle, TE: faces same battle as Martin, but without the production.

Tab Perry, WR: enough room on the opening-day roster for an injury-prone return specialist with Ginn already here?

Dave Rayner: entering his fourth NFL season, and he’ll have to unseat Feely to make it.

Matt Roth, DE: hasn’t lived up to pre-draft billing as 46th overall draft pick in 2005; Dolphins have collected a lot of defensive line help through free agency and the draft.

Joey Thomas, CB: hasn’t played in the NFL since 2005.

I disagree with Jay Feeley, he was about the only pickup in Cam's horrible season that suceed.

Greg Camarillo- If it weren't for the 64 yard TD catch, we wouldn't know his name...Probable candidate for a cut. Since there are only 3 WR's with a sure roster spot (Derek Hagan, Ted Ginn, and Ernest Wilford) he does have a shot at making it... but has to really impress. Pack your bags.

 Travis Daniels- iI thought he was a CB... musta changed positions? He did good when he filled in his rookie season... but injuries have limited his play, and perhaps slowed him down.-I think he's safe as a DB. (remember there's FS and SS)

Trey Darilek- know nothing about this guy. Pack your bags??

Jay Feely- I think is safe. Carpenter is a rookie, Dave Rayner isn't that good.

Junior Glymph-  With Channing Crowder, Akin Ayodel, Charlie Anderson, Reggie Torber, Joey Porter, and drafted rookie Kelvin Smith... there is little room for a guy who's proved little. Pack your bags Junior.

I don't know bout cutting both Justin Peelle and David Martin...but they are the 2 oldest TE's on the team.

Andre Goodman.- A starter until he was injured last year.. I think he's safe, especially with Michael Lehan and Will Allen as the only other "good" corners.

Rob Ninkovich-  With 3 guys drafted this year, Jason Taylor still on the roster, Youngster Quentin Moses, and Vonnie Holliday (who is a better DE than DT) Not much room for a guy that has nothing special. Better pack his bags.

Tab Perry- Has a better shot than David Kirkus, Davone Bess, Justin Wynn, and Jayson Forester to make the roster based off of size and experience. He could find his way on the opening day roster.

Dave Rayner- Decent kicker brought in as competition cuz Parcells' staff is familiar with him from his Skins days.

Matt Roth-  See Rob Ninkovich above.... Also, I've never seen anything good from him, better impress Sparano and Parcells in camp.

Joey Thomas-  Has a shot at special teams... but with the steroid injection on the ST, he'll have to prove his worth.


Some of my additions....
DT- Paul Soliai (if the reports of him being a "big lazy baby" are true)
DT-Anthony Toribio Undrafted rookie FA. has to beat out Randy Starks, Jason Ferguson, Vonnie Holliday, and Rodrique Wright...that's a lot of DT's on 1 team.
DT- Kory Robertson (see above)
LB- Titus Brown, the Dolphins are stacked at LB right now, and he was a rookie FA.

I agree on most, but as Delaware said I think Daniels is safe.

Other than Ginn and Wilford, it looks like the WR spot is going to be a big battle- hopefully that means we end up with the cream of the crop.  Also we should keep in mind some of the guys were brought in strictly as ST guys, who won't see the field otherwise unless necessary or they show sparks during drills.

Feely is safe.  Rayner is a punter who's going to compete with Brandon Fields and possibly for kickoff duties only.  Feely will be our kicker unless he gets the shanks, at which point Parcells will shank him into the Atlantic Ocean.

With the exceptions of daniels, feely, and Tab Perry (our ST was awful last season and he was obviously brought in for a reason)

 

i wouldn't be surprised if those guys were cut.....

 

we had a major purge this season, and the entire roster already has a lot of new races....

 

i would like camarillo to stay tho, won us our only game after all haha

I would say Greg Camarillo. Even though I love that 64 yard catch vs Baltimore, I don't think he will make it. I would love to see that though. The other would be Dave Rayner. I just don't think Jay Feely is going to lose the battle.
