Summary

The Dolphins' defense was stout against the rush (ranked third overall) but had plenty of struggles stopping the pass. Miami ranked 25th against the pass and allowed some very big passing games throughout the season. This is a concern for the coming year. The addition of Richard Marshall should help some at cornerback but he isn't exactly a shutdown corner. The Dolphins still lack that elite guy in the secondary. They will give up some big passing plays once again in 2012. The pass rush does do a pretty good job, though, notching 41 sacks last season. Cameron Wake and Jared Odrick create some havoc at the end spots. The special teams have a host of guys that can handle return duties, including Clyde Gates, Davone Bess and Reggie Bush. All are decent options, making this unit above-average for the Dolphins.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The Dolphins might be worth using on occasion, but that is about it. They have some sack potential and could make some big plays, but won't be among the top teams in the league when it comes to yards and points allowed. The secondary remains a concern for the coming season.
