The Fins also added veteran Knowshon Moreno, who had over 1,500 yards and 13 touchdowns with the Broncos in 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Defensively the Dolphins lost some key pieces, but return a couple of Pro Bowlers in defensive tackle Randy Starks\u00a0and defensive end Cameron Wake. And while the unit still has a lot of potential, the chances are it won\u2019t be as good as last season.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Matt&#8217;s Free Prediction \u2014 OVER<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>There are a lot of question marks surrounding the Dolphins heading into the 2014 season, which makes it difficult to predict where they will finish and how many wins they will accumulate.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the new additions to the offensive line live up to their potential, I expect the Fins to be right in the thick of things in the AFC East with a 9-7 season.<\/p>\n<p><b>The 2014\/15 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/nfl\/\">NFL futures betting<\/a> season is here in full force!
