26-year old Anthony Fasano will be the starter at TE for the Dolphins this season.  He played in 14 games (all starts) for the Fins last season in which he caught 31 passes for 339 yards (10.9 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  Fasano has now played in 62 games (40 starts) in his four years in the NFL and he has caught 93 passes for 1,062 yards (11.4 avg) with 10 TD grabs.  Look for Chad Henne to look for Fasano a lot when other options break down.

25-year old Joey Haynos will likely be the #2 TE for the Dolphins in 2010.  He played in 16 games (8 starts) for the Dolphins last season and he caught 19 passes for 162 yards (8.5 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  Haynos has now played in 23 games (8 starts) in his first two years in the NFL and he has caught 21 passes for 184 yards (8.8 avg) with 3 TD grabs.  He has good hands but don’t expect any long runs after the catch out of Haynos.

25-year old Kory Sperry is #3 on the depth chart at TE.  Sperry played in 8 games (1 start) last season for the Fins and he caught 3 passes for 31 yards (10.3 avg) with 1 TD grab.  That was his first taste of the NFL.  2nd year TE John Nalbone out of Monmouth will likely have a hard time making the team as he hasn’t done anything in the NFL yet.
