from phinsider
Salary cap space
The Dolphins are not in the salary cap hell some seem to think they are. Last week, the league told teams the cap for 2018 would be between $174 million and $178 million. That number could still climb higher, and it will not be solidified until March. Currently, according to OverTheCap.com, the Dolphins have 42 players under camp for the season, with a cap number of $162.8 million. That gives the team space of around $12 million to $16 million before making any roster moves. That would likely provide the team with the space needed to sign draft picks and have money for operations during the season.
The team can make plenty of cap space through contract restructuring and cuts. Players like Ndamukong Suh ($26.1 million cap number) and Ryan Tannehill ($19.8 million) could create space for the team if they are willing to rework their contracts, and the team is willing to defer some of the money into later years by changing base salary into a signing bonus (Suh is scheduled to have a $16.985 million base salary in 2018 and Tannehill will have $17.475 million).
Roster cuts could hit players with little or no dead money next year, including Ja’Wuan James ($9.341 million in space created), Mike Pouncey ($7 million in space), Cameron Wake ($8.125 million), and Julius Thomas ($6.6 million). Of those, James, Pouncey, and Wake all make sense to try to rework their contracts, while Thomas seems to be a sure-bet to be released. Ted Larsen could save the team $1.1 million, while Stephone Anthony would be $1.5 million in space if he were to be released.

Needs
1. Guard -who doesn't need O-linemen
2. Tight end -Thomas is doubtful to return
3. Linebacker -Hisi will probably retire Timmons who knows with him
4. Defensive end -Wake will be 36 this season
5. Running back -Drake is not a bellcow
