This is tough, there are a lot of worthy names. Might have to break this into 2 categories, outside and inside. If you do that I'd go with Thomas, Duhe, Offerdahl and Buoniconti inside. The outside I'd go with Bokamper, Porter, Brudzinski and Hugh Green.

If I only get 4. Thomas, Duhe, Buoniconti and Green and I'm considering Green's entire career, not just with the Dolphins.

And for the record I consider Taylor and Wake Defensive ends.

If *I* was going to build a monument to four Dolphin linebackers it would include:

Larry Izzo
Jonathan Freeny
Junior Seau
Kyle Van Noy

(But my selection criteria might be a bit different than others.)

Buoniconti was better than all them and was a Patriot too.

I saw Cox there, and was wondering, did I screw up? Then again, Hugh Green to me would be the one he could displace... Offerdahl was great too for a long time.

We haven't got to the corners or safeties yet... there are going to be some more really great players missing out!

Bryan Cox has to be at the top of my list because he starred both in the middle and on the outside.   
John Offerdahl
Zach Thomas
Nick Buoniconti

Hugh Green and AJ Duhe get honorable mentions.

I will pay that!

Like I said, it was a tough call in this lot, and Duhe was on my short list. I ended up going for Larry Gordon, a brilliant player whose time ended too soon.
