Heading into the offseason there is work to be done in the Miami Dolphins front office. Out of the 20 players who are set to hit free agency, 11 of them started at least one game in 2014 – with some of them playing crucial roles such as Louis Delmas, Charles Clay  and Jared Odrick.

Last seasons crumbling performance down the stretch will call for a lot of new faces heading into 2015. With free agency and the draft looming, the Dolphins will have plenty of opportunity to improve their team. However, before those two events occur, they must decide what to do with their expiring contracts.

In what will be a make-or-break season for the front office and coaching staff, Miami must decide which guys to bring back and which ones to let walk.

That being said, here are the top three Dolphin free agents.
