“Miami Has the Dolphins the Greatest Football Team” As the Miami Dolphins Enter Year 4 of the Felipe Santos Regime the team has still yet to produce a winning season for the Fins The Club still Led by

PTL Legend Dan Marino Here Lies an Analysis of the Team Moves and Roster Construction leading up to the 2006 PTL Season OFFENSE Expected Lineup (OVR measured After TC) QB Rex Grossman 3YP 85 OVR RB

Jeff Saturday 7YP 89 OVR RG Mark Tauscher 6YP 89 OVR RT Jason Peters 2YP 85 OVR Entering This Season The Offense Hopes Lies on Better health from QB Rex Grossman who had an injury riddled 2004 and 2005 seasons slowing down his development however the Improvement when he did play was noticeable Throwing for More TDs than INTs for the first time in his career in limited action (9/7 in 7 Games) the Receiver core is mostly unchanged with the only add being Slot WR Brandon Stokley to Aid the Chris Chambers and Doug Gabriel lead core Winslow is set to start at TE Yet again for the team The main adds of the Offseason were Halfback Warrick Dunn From the Minnesota Vikings to Take the load from 2nd Round Pick Marion Barber III Who is set to develop behind the 10 Year Vet Dunn,31 was the backup for Electrifying Back Clinton Portis in the north but still found ways to produce even in the limited role Managing 8 TDs and an great YPC at 4,6 Yards in his age 30 season now a year older he is expected to both be a mentor to the youngster Barber and lead the team rushing attack At the Line We have the addition of Guards Chris Terry and Mark Tauscher as new Starters after both Left in FA Tauscher,29, Signed a Multi-Year Deal with the Fins to be a key Player in the Line That Offensively was Led by many Youngsters Like RT Peters and LT Brown Former First rounders Experienced C Jeff Saturday Finishes the Lineup set to Defend QB Grossman The Team Hopes that The Combination Of a Healthier Year By Grossman The Additions to the Ground Game and Offensive Line Helps the Offense Progress from a Bottom 3 Unit to a Unit that can Compete and Win games for this key Year for the Miami Franchise Breakout Candidates RB Marion Barber III- The Young Back Rushed for 1000 Yards last year even in low efficiency Now a Year Older he can prove to be a great change of pace back and even become the starter again due to injury he brings promise and Youthfulness to the backfield and can be a great piece as Shown Last year (3 of his 5 TDs came in the last 4 weeks of the season) WR Leron McCoy-Despite Interest from other teams the former 3rd Rounder stayed and is set as WR4 in the Depth Chart the Former Idaho WR brings speed to a rather Slow Receiver core and can prove to be an option Even with his fumble problems he is set to Battle WR Stokley for Snaps Defense and STs 4-3 RE Adewale Ogunleye 5YP 89 OVR DT1 Gabe Watson RK 73 OVR DT2 Matthias Askew 2YP 81 OVR LE Jamal Reynolds 5YP 81 OVR LOLB Brian Urlacher 6YP 99 OVR MLB Stephen Tulloch RK 71 OVR ROLB Morlon Greenwood 5yp

A Middle Of the Pack Defense in Points Allowed (17th in the League Tied with the Steelers at 23.6) The Team actually was Just outside the top 10 in Yards allowed (11th in the League) proving to be a solid unit with upside for this season With Franchise Legend MLB Zach Thomas Departing for the Cardinals This Team Tries to turn the page from the team of the Late 90s and early 2000s With Solid Seasons from Trade Acquisition in 2005 Brian Urlacher (OLB) and former First Round Safety Yeremiah Bell Leading the way for this Young Defense New Faces come mostly from the Highly Controversial Draft the team had which saw its Future First being traded for the 22nd Pick In the draft a move considered a Big Risk by the PTF Community With Said Selection The Franchise Selected Michigan DT Gabe Watson, a 6’3 338lb DT who is a Physical Freak in the interior GM Felipe Santos Has been on record saying that he thinks this pick is worth whatever Pick the Future First rounder may become saying “Gabe is simply a 1 of 1 Player I knew I soon as I saw him that I couldn’t miss the opportunity to get him“ He is Set to Lead the Line That also brings DT Askew (6 Sacks last Season) and Des Ogunleye (9 Sacks) and Reynolds (8 Sacks) The Front 7 Also Saw the Pick of MLB Stephen Tulloch in the second Round, The N.C State Product is quite Undersized at only 5’11 But he shown a technique and Power on his tape that brought him to the top of the Second Round at 2.6. The 21 Year Old Mike Is set to start alongside Captain Brian Urlacher and 5 Year Vet Greenwood as his Outside Linebackers The Secondary Is Hardly Changed from Past Seasons as the CB Duo Of Brian Williams and Ahmad Carroll are Set to start again with Yeremiah Bell and Shane Walton Keeping their Roles as The Safeties of the Team Look Out Specially For Brian Williams the Former Viking has Severely Improved in his time in Miami (over 9 AWR Improved for this season) and is set to be one of the defensive Leaders The Special Teams are Bound to be Led by Kicker John Anderson who we hope for improvement after a bad season Last Year and Punter Toby Gowin Who Comes from the Division Rival Patriots to Replace John Baker who left in FA To the Cincinnati Bengals Breakout Players CB Rich Gardner- The Former 3rd Round Pick has Hardly Played a Role for the Fins so far in his career however the Penn State Project brings a level of Physicality only bested by Ahmad Carroll Expect him to earn Playing time at Nickelback at some Point this season. DT C.J Mosley- A Starter Last Season the Former 4th Rounder still Brings A Strong Ability to stuff the Run while Behind in the Depth Chart for Gabe Watson The Versatility of the Latter May see him Play both Inside and Edge for the Dolphins and if he is moved to the edge Mosley is the First One up for Playing time Record Prediction: with the Roster as Is the Prediction for this season of Miami Football is to bring the Best Results in the Grossman Era We Predict a 7 to 10 Win Season Fighting for a Possible Wild card Spot in the AFC But Still behind the Tom Brady Led Patriots
