Miami Dolphins 2013 Roster Projection

The Miami Dolphins have three more weeks until the NFL's opening day. Here is an early projection of who and what the roster may include.

There are a few questionable positions whose numbers can, and likely will, be manipulated at tight end (experience), guard (depth), tackle (depth), fullback (depth), and linebacker (too many, though they may be required for special teams). Those positions may be altered from within or after other teams' cuts.
