That is assuming you believe in such things, and discounting injuries. In my opinion:

QB: Tannehill, Moore

RB: Miller, Williams, Ajayi

WR: Landry, Stills, Parker, Jennings

TE: Cameron, Sims

OL: Albert, Thomas Pouncey, Turner, James, Douglas (I cringe to add Thomas but it sure seems the staff is set on him for a least another year. Same for Turner.)

DL: Wake, Suh, Mitchell, Vernon, Phillips (I wanted to add Fede, Francis Shelby but I think any one of them may not make it.)

LB: Jenkins, Misi, McCain, Tripp, Sheppard (The "wild card" is does Misi stay at MLB?)

DB: Grimes, Delmas, Jones, Taylor (Of Bowman and Brice McCain I can't decide if both make the team, or which one.)

ST: Denny ( Punters can always be replaced but Fields is close to being a lock imo.)


Who say you?
 
Shelby and Fields are locks. Michael Thomas is close to a lock, but there are a lot of new faces in the secondary (have a feeling Bobby McCain will become a lock pretty quickly, but too early to say that about a 5th round pick right now).

Shelby's our best Run Support DE...no way they are moving on from that.
 
Michael Thomas is also a lock IMO he played very well last year and deserves a spot

As are both McCains at corner
 
No one is a lock, not even Tannehill. If Ryan goes all Aaron Hernandez and starts whacking people, even he could be let go.
 
I agree with all the above. One name you mentioned that isn't a lock IMO is Tripp. We could see two UDFA LB's make it and Tripp becoming the odd man out.
 
I'd say both Aikens and Thomas are locks at Safety. Their experience and versatility keep them both around.
 
I think Bobby McCain and Cedric Thompson will make it. They both had very high SPARQ scores and I believe that will entice the coaching staff to stick with and develop these guys.
 
-Fields is a lock
-Fede and Shelby are locks
-Aiken, Thomas, all three 5th round DB's imo are locks as well as Brice McCain
-I think Lynch at TE is gonna be a lock coming off last years injury
-Tripp too me has to really show he has what it takes this season and is far from a lock at this point

Your'e the second person to mention Tripp. May be on to something.

I'd love to see some new blood in the secondary. It has been suspect.
