The Dolphins have lost 34-year old NT Jason Ferguson for the season due to a severe knee injury.  He played in 9 games for the Dolphins this season and he made 23 tackles, 4 tackles for a loss and he defensed 1 pass.  Randy Starks will move into the starting lineup to replace Ferguson and he is a pretty decent player himself.  He has played in all 10 games for the Fins this season and he has 33 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss and he has 5.5 sacks.  With Starks in there full time the pass rushing will improve up the middle for the Dolphins while the run defense might be a tad weaker.  Tony McDaniel will move up to the #2 job behind Starks and they will need him to step up when he’s on the field.  McDaniel has played in 10 games this season for the Dolphins and he has made 7 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss and he has defensed 1 pass.
