59. Something to keep in mind here. The Miami Dolphins run a 4-3 defense and that means their defensive line controls the action. Cameron Wake, their long-time star pass rusher is 34 and coming off a season-ending Achilles injury. Their other starter, Olivier Vernon is expected to leave in free agency. This team sorely needs to make sure that position doesn’t fall apart. <p>Clemson is unloading a pair of highly talented defensive ends and the favorite flavor at the moment is Kevin Dodd. For good reason too. The young man was practically unblockable down the stretch of the 2015 season, notching a sack in each of his final six games. He’s got that coveted size-strength-athleticism combination that make great defensive linemen along with the nastiness to have the hunter’s mentality.</p>. DE. Clemson. Kevin Dodd. 8. player
