No Team Has Lost More Players than the Phins

A little bit of cap casualties. A little bit of bad talent. A little bit of aging veterans. A little bit of a new coach trying to get rid of people with a losing attitude. Though don't think that completely overhauling a team is a bad thing. The New Orleans Saints had 17 different starters in 2006 than 2005 and went from a 2-14 team to the NFC Championship game.
Nice n optimistic coment. :tantrum:
 
McMichael- No upgrade here a bunch of unproven guys
This may be true, but Randy seriously underachieved last year. It wasn't just the ridiculous amount of drops he had, but he seemed to have regressed in his pass blocking. I think that was probably the most disappointing aspect of his game.

James- Not worth the money but no one better has been signed
There might be more to Jeno's knee that Saban and co let on, and maybe it was time to move on from an injury aspect. The guy had knee problems the last two years.

Mckinney- even though he sucked, signed no one to be backup center
You said it he sucked. We can get a quality back up at OC in the draft. Or worse case scenario we can get Trey Teague for the vet min. Both are upgrades over Mckinney.

McIntosh- clearly better than any LT we had on roster since he played over them
Obviously there must be a plan to replace the LT if they didn't even make an offer to resign McIntosh. Maybe they think Carey is the answer there.

Welker-got great value for a player but brought in nobody to replace him
We definitely got great value, but now we just need to find adequate repalcements in the return game. Maybe Azkhim, Campbell, or possibly Vick.

Carter- glad to make room for Roth but Roth will probably not be the force that Carter was for a year.
Nothing from Roth's performances leads me to believe that he can't be a factor for an entire season. It's not like Carter was that dominant anyway. I think with Truck back and Vonnie Holliday, Roth should settle in nicely.

Bowens-solid role player , brought nobody of his caliber in at DE
No arguments there, he will be missed.

Mare- at best we basically got rid of one high priced kicker for another. Not really an upgrade
Feeley has been a lot more accurate than Mare in the past two years. Plus he's better at kicking in the elements. Mare's only value last year were his touchbacks, he seemed to lack confidence the whole season. Yes, he had many misses from beyond fifty yards, but he also missed some very makeable FGs (e.g. 41 yarder against the Jets in NY)

Harrington-well since we have signed no Qb, no upgrade
Cutting him was an upgrade at the position. Cleo Lemon is a better backup that Harrington.

Morris- May actually have an upgrade if Ricky is back with team
No arguments there, Ricky is an upgrade over even Ronnie IMO.

Minor-no replacement yet, more of a special teams ace but decent third back.

He'll be missed as personal protector, but Todd Johnson is a huge upgrade as a special teamer.

Wrong bear, wish we had signed Todd Johnson.
