 Miami Dolphins
The Miami Dolphins' pass defense ranked fifth in the NFL last season, allowing 187.9 yards per game. On the surface, it would appear that the team is set in the secondary.

The notable omission from the above would seem to be Jason Allen - at the minicamps he seems to have swapped to cornerback. Hopefully he will be able to force his way into the line-up.

Also, Shirdonya Mitchell had a good season in NFL Europa, being named to the All-NFL Europa team. Admittedly he only had 2 interceptions in 10 games, but thats still better than the phins CBs managed last season.

I read this same drivel all the time. Come on now our defense depends on the front 7 putting pressure on the QB, not INT's. You take all the Champ Baileys you want and I'll take all the Jason Taylors and Joey Porters I can get my hands on, ok. Us looking up at New England, come on, the last team to try and buy a SB was Washington and they haven't been so hot. I can't wait to see Moss in the snow after Zack lays the wood to him while Stallworth is hurt and riding the bench. As for Wes, God bless him, I feel if he is their leading WR this year then they are in as much trouble as we were last year. Plus, don't forget we only beat the feared Pats 21 to zip and that was with those no good back 4 guys.

Besides Lehan and Mitchell I thought we claimed a CB off waivers from Atlanta that had starting experience from the 49ers?
