[h=3]18. Miami Dolphins[/h] Projected starters: CB Byron Maxwell, CB Tony Lippett, SCB Bobby McCain, S Reshad Jones, S Isa Abdul-Quddus
Other names to know: CB Xavien Howard, CB Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, S Michael Thomas, S Walt Aikens
Key stat: Bobby McCain allowed just 0.27 yards per coverage snap when in the slot last season, by far the lowest average in the league.
Maxwell’s time with the Eagles did not go well, allowing a career-high 100.7 passer rating into his coverage last season. He will again need to prove that he can perform outside of the Seattle system. Rookie Xavien Howard (Baylor) has plenty of upside, and should push Lippett for the starting corner position opposite Maxwell. Jones is one of the best run-stopping and pass-rushing safeties, and generally is reliable in coverage as well.

We have a top 3 safety combo. Even with the 32 at corners we come out average.

I'm not ready to proclaim that yet, since we have never seen Jones and IAQ line up together but I'm optimistic
