The Miami Dolphins have done some great work over the last few years putting together a strong foundation of talented players that should help lead the team to their goals of winning football games in January and beyond.
General manager Chris Grier has made impressive trades and has hit on some really big draft picks.
With that, it’s no surprise that the Dolphins had five players listed on CBS Sports’ Pete Prisco’s top-100 NFL players for 2023, as well as three honorable mentions. Here’s what he had to say about some of Miami’s stars:
Honorable mentions
- QB Tua Tagovailoa
- LT Terron Armstead
- S Jevon Holland
No. 95 - LB Jaelan Phillips
“I think he will be much higher on this list next year. He is a star in waiting. The ability is there.”
No. 74 - DL Christian Wilkins
“He followed up his solid 2021 season with his best one in his four years in the league. He has eight sacks from the interior the past two seasons, but he also had 33 pressures last season.”
No. 62 - WR Jaylen Waddle
“In his second season, he proved to be the perfect complement to Tyreek Hill, adding more speed to the offense. He had 75 catches with eight going for touchdowns, and his 18.1 yards-per-catch average was better than Hill’s average of 17.”
No. 14 - CB Jalen Ramsey
“He was traded by the Rams to Miami this offseason, but not for talent reasons. He still plays at a high level and can do a lot of things for a defense. He will be special in the Vic Fangio defense.”
No. 12 - WR Tyreek Hill
“In his first season with the Dolphins, he again showed off his big-play skills. Hill had a career-best 119 catches for 1,710 yards. He’s talking 2,000 yards this season, and who can doubt him?”
