http://www.profootballweekly.com/PFW/Fantasy+Football/Fantasy+Extras/2007/OLrankings.htm 28. Miami  The Dolphins are likely to have new starters at all five O-line positions, although OLT Vernon Carey (former right tackle), ORT L.J. Shelton (former right guard) and ORG Rex Hadnot (former center) are returning starters. The line needs to jell quickly to protect less-than-mobile QB Trent Green and lead the way for RB Ronnie Brown and the running game. Rookie Samson Satele could win the starting center job.
 
I think that 28th might be a bit low to rank us, but I understand why we're there. Hopefully our guys will be able to jack that rating up some. Though we all know that based on past performances of our OLines the past several season that at this point it's all just wishful thinking.
 
To be honest, I think we belong towards the bottom of the league. Its been at least 2-3 seasons in a row where our line has been terrible at the start of the year and found its stride midway into the season and started playing well. And they never came close to a dominating, top 10 type line. With all of the changes, its very likely we follow that pattern again-- poor start, solid but unspectacular by the end.
 
We added nobody that is a proven NFL stud and we have not been that good for years so until proven otherwise our line deserves this ranking.
 
Just goes to show how impressive Ronnie Brown was last season and he missed a few games. Ronnie gets yds after the 1st hit beit with the help or lack of help with an Average O-Line. Houck im hoping will earn his salary after this season. Our O-Line will improve, its a work in progress and it wont be totally fixed until after the next draft and FA.

Its not like they can play any worse.
 
how can you really rank teams if you haven't seen their signed free agents/draft picks on the field?
 
Ranking o-lines after minicamps where no pads were put on is like rating a wine by looking at the bottle. It's a worthless ranking. I'll be interested to see what the guys look like by the end of the preseason.
 
I was never a big fan of Rex Hadnot or L.J.Shelton, so I'm afraid I agree with them... But I hope I'm wrong!!
