5. Jarvis Landry, receiver: It's no surprise Landry looks even better in his second season. The former second-round pick is very serious about his craft and pays attention to detail. Landry's routes are precise, he has the best hands on the team and he's very competitive. All of this makes up for his lack of elite athleticism and measurables for the receiver position.
4. Rishard Matthews, receiver: Matthews went from unhappy in the spring to productive in the summer. He routinely made plays and took advantage of injuries at the receiver position to Kenny Stills (calf) and first-round pick DeVante Parker (foot). It will be interesting to see what Miami's coaching staff does with Matthews once Stills and Parker are 100 percent. Matthews could go from a starter back to the fifth receiver on the team.
3. Terrence Fede, defensive end: Fede was arguably the biggest surprise in training camp. Miami's 2014 seventh-round pick is much more polished than he was a year ago. Fede is a natural athlete with good size, and he's starting to put it all together. He was a terror rushing the passer against Miami's second-string offensive linemen and routinely recorded would-be sacks in practice. Fede will push for playing time behind starting defensive ends Cameron Wake and Olivier Vernon.
2. Ryan Tannehill, quarterback: This is the best I've seen Tannehill throw in four seasons. This is also the most consistent. In past training camps, Tannehill will follow one or two strong practices with a poor practice. But this year Tannehill has been steady throughout. Perhaps the biggest surprise is Tannehill routinely connected on the deep ball. That's been a major change from his previous three seasons. The key for Miami is for Tannehill to translate his strong offseason and training camp into the regular season.
1. Ndamukong Suh, defensive tackle: Suh was an absolute dominant force in Miami's practices. He made such a mockery of Miami's offensive line, and particularly the guard positions, that it was hard to evaluate those players. There aren't many players who can block Suh one on one, which will help the Dolphins' defense tremendously. They haven't had a game-changer of this level on defense since Jason Taylor was in his prime.
