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.
