DEDICATION

The 2011 Miami Dolphins Media Guide is dedicated to the memory of former Dolphins tackle Anthony Cesario, guard Harry Galbreath, safety Barry Hill, tackle Eric Laakso, defensive tackle Shawn Lee and tight end/broadcaster Jim Mandich, each of whom passed away in the past year. On April 26, 2011, the Miami Dolphin organization mourned the passing of Mandich, a member of the Dolphins family both on and off the field for more than 40 years who left an imprint that was both unique and authentic. He was a popular tight end best known as Mad Dog for his tenacious and relentless attitude on the great Dolphins Super Bowl teams in the 1970s, playing for the club from 1970 through 1977. He was a member of two Super Bowl winning squads (1972, 1973), including the Perfect Season team, and three AFC Championship teams. Mandich finished his career with the Dolphins with 121 receptions for 1,406 yards and 23 touchdowns. When he left the Dolphins, he ranked sixth in team annals in receptions, tied for second in touchdown catches, and tied for seventh in scoring. Even now, in current Dolphin history, he is second among tight ends in scoring, fifth in receptions and second in touchdown catches. After his playing career ended, Mandich embarked on a successful business and civic career in South Florida and became a beloved member of the Dolphin broadcast team for 17 years. His famous All Right, Miami! exclamation after exciting Dolphin plays became his hallmark catch phrase. His passion for the team was evident in every broadcast he did, and his unique on-air presence and personality captivated Dolphins fans everywhere. Mandich was always there to help the members of the Dolphins family as a broadcaster and as fundraiser, leading his weekly Touchdown Club for ten years that contributed more than $300,000 to help former players who have fallen on hard times. He also played a lead role in the formation of the Dolphins Cycling Challenge, that in its inaugural year had more than 400 cyclists taking part from November 20-21, 2010 to cycle across three South Florida counties and raise $533,106 to support cancer research and treatment for the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. A public memorial service to celebrate the life and achievements of Mandich was held on May 4, 2011 in front of a crowd of several thousand fans at Sun Life Stadium. At the celebration it was announced that Mandich will be inducted into the Dolphin Honor Roll as a Special Contributor. Cesario, who passed away September 25, 2011 at the age of 34, was on the practice squad of the Dolphins in 2001. He began his three-year NFL career as a third-round draft choice of Jacksonville in 1999. An eighth-round draft choice of the Dolphins in 1988 from the University of Tennessee, Galbreath, passed away July 27, 2010, at the age of 45. He played with Miami from 1988-92 and went on to play with the Packers and Jets during his nine-year NFL career. One of the first players from Palm Beach County to play for the Dolphins, Hill passed away December 29, 2010 at the age of 57. He was drafted in the fifth round of the 1975 Draft and played 20 games with the Dolphins before six knee operations - three on each knee - ended his career. A veteran of two Super Bowls with Miami, Laakso, who passed away December 25, 2010 at the age of 54, played with the Dolphins from 1978-84 after joining the team as a third-round draft choice from Tulane in 1978. Lee, who passed away April 26, 2011, at the age of 44, played with the Dolphins from 1990-91. An 11-year NFL veteran, Lee also played with Tampa Bay, San Diego and Chicago.

For more than 45 years, the Miami Dolphins franchise has been part of the fabric of South Florida that extends well beyond our field of play. We are committed to being the team of the community both through the Miami Dolphins Foundation and the efforts of our entire organization, including our players, coaches and staff. This past year was a pivotal and exciting time for the Miami Dolphins Foundation as we established our four cornerstone initiatives: Health, Education, Youth Fitness and Volunteerism. We believe these exciting new activities and signature programs will make significant contributions and leave lasting imprints on our South Florida community. In 2010, we continued and expanded our long-time community educational efforts such as our Most Valuable Reader Program as well as our youth programs with a multitude of fitness, junior cheerleader and youth football camps. In conjunction with our stadiums naming rights partner, Sun Life Financial, we launched the Sun Life Rising Stars program which awarded $220,000 for four individual college scholarships and four grants to non-profit organizations which demonstrate a commitment to success in the classroom. To assist in the research that will one day help tackle cancer, we established the inaugural Dolphins Cycling Challenge, a 170-mile bike ride across South Florida. The DCC drew more than 400 riders of all ages and raised more than $533,000 for the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Miami. This event will continue to be a trademark of our Foundation in coming years and we believe will raise millions for cancer research and treatment. Assisting the Dolphins in the Challenge, and in every other community project this year, was our amazing volunteer organization, the Miami Dolphins Special Teams. This one-of-a-kind program attracted more than 3,100 volunteers who contributed more than 43,000 hours of community service both in South Florida as well as other regions in and outside of the United States. These volunteers, wearing their bright orange Special Teams shirts, have donated their time for projects including neighborhood cleanups, food giveaways, school beautifications and manning all community events sponsored by the Dolphins.

DOLPHINS CYCLING CHALLENGE: Although the Dolphins family lost alumnus and radio voice Jim Mad Dog Mandich to cancer, his energy and spirit live on through the Dolphins Cycling Challenge. The organization responded to his initial diagnosis by creating this unique event to bring South Florida together to tackle this disease and assist an innovative and expanding Florida medical institution, the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Miami. More than 300 adult riders, including Dolphins legends Nat Moore, Zach Thomas, Kim Bokamper and Dick Anderson, pedaled routes ranging from 30 to 170 miles throughout South Florida. Additionally, kids ages three through 13 demonstrated their support for cancer research by riding several courses located on the grounds of Sun Life Stadium. Every dollar of the $533,106 raised by the riders went directly to the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. SUN LIFE RISING STAR AND MOST VALUABLE READER PROGRAMS: The Dolphins organization is dedicated to making sure that our kids are equipped with the tools necessary to

instill the joy of reading and learning at an early age. The team enthusiastically supports several education and literacy programs throughout Florida, highlighted by the Sun Life Rising Stars and Most Valuable Reader programs. Through the Rising Stars in 2010, the Dolphins and Sun Life Financial gave four area education programs $50,000 grants and also rewarded four area students with $5,000 college scholarships. Through our Most Valuable Readers program, the Dolphins made a $60,000 annual commitment to state libraries in which children exchange reading credits for the opportunity to attend Dolphins games or receive other incentives. DOLPHINS YOUTH ATHLETIC PROGRAMS: The importance of education, physical fitness and positive choices are the principles taught by Director of Youth Programs and former Dolphins linebacker, Twan Russell, and his staff through the Dol-Fit program, Gatorade Junior Training Camp program, Girls Flag Football, High School Player Development 7-on-7 program, Summer Football/Cheer Camp and various other Dolphins Academy programs. In 2010 alone, more than 160,000 childrens lives were transformed by our Dolphins Academy athletic and school programs. Since 1996, more than 700,000 children pledged to become Dol-Fit and, since 2006, over 350,000 children have participated in our athletic programs. SPECIAL TEAMS: The Dolphins Special Teams pull together volunteers from throughout South Florida to donate their sweat equity for worthy community projects. More than 3,100 individuals donated over 43,000 hours its first year. The first of its kind in the NFL, Dolphins Special Teams lent their support to programs and projects that included the Dolphins Touchdown For Life Blood Drive, the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, clearing out an old army facility in Orlando to create a new childrens park, working with the local Boys & Girls Clubs to beautify several of their facilities and teaming up with Feeding South Florida at area events. Special Teams even went international to assist a shelter for the physically and mentally disabled in Mexico City.

The inaugural blood drive in 2009 attracted 1,003 blood donors. Recent natural disasters like the earthquakes in Haiti and Chile and Hurricane Katrina five years ago have increased peoples awareness about the importance of having a large enough supply of blood to treat patients. COMBATING HUNGER & POVERTY: The Dolphins organization works with partners such as Publix Supermarkets to provide 200,000 meals each year to community programs including Feeding South Florida and LifeNet4Families. The largest of these events is the annual Thanksgiving Meal Giveaway, in which Dolphins players and coaches donate and deliver complete meals to area families and serve food at local soup kitchens. In 2010, the Thanksgiving Food Giveaway single event fed more than 24,000 deserving people throughout our region.

MIAMI DOLPHINS IN THE COMMUNITYThe Miami Dolphins take great pride in playing an active role in the South Florida community. By lending support to both civic and community based charitable causes, the Dolphins are able to make an impact in the lives of those who need it the most. The assistance that the Dolphins are able to provide comes from the teamwork of coaches, players, alumni, cheerleaders, T.D. (the Dolphins mascot), staff and members of the Miami Dolphins Womens Organization working together toward the common goals of helping those in need and supporting the community that has always been there to support the Dolphins. When the final chapter of 2010 was written, members of the Dolphins organization made more than 1,200 community appearances totaling more than 4,600 hours and reaching 650,500 of our fellow Floridians. The team said yes to more than 99-percent of the requests it received from charitable organizations and distributed 2,600 donations throughout the state.

MIKE DEECHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

COLLEGE: FRANKLIN AND MARSHALL NFL: THIRD SEASON DOLPHINS: THIRD SEASON

Mike Dee was named as Chief Executive Officer of the Miami Dolphins and Sun Life Stadium by Stephen M. Ross on May 3, 2009. Dee came to South Florida and the NFL after a distinguished 15-year career in Major League Baseball, where he played a lead role in the resurgence of two franchises and was a member of two World Series Championship teams. Since joining the Dolphins, Dee has laid out the three fundamental commitments that guide the franchise during the Ross ownership era: 1) To put a team on the field worthy of the fans support with the goal of competing for a playoff berth each season; 2) To consistently strive to enhance the fan experience at Sun Life Stadium and aggressively market the team to a broad region and diverse fan base; and 3) To be active participants in the community. Dee has spearheaded the teams efforts to live up to these commitments. In order to grow the clubs fan base, he created a series of programs in the western and central regions of the state and worked tirelessly to improve the game-day experience for the teams fans by implementing a host of entertainment and culinary innovations that has made the atmosphere at Dolphins home games unique in the NFL. On the business side, Dee finalized a ground-breaking naming rights deal for the stadium with Sun Life Financial, revamped and improved the clubs broadcast and internet platforms and developed a series of customized programs designed to enhance the teams relationship with its business partners. Dee has also placed a particular emphasis on the clubs community relations efforts, having introduced a host of new charitable initiatives, such as the teams annual blood drive and the Dolphin Cycling Challenge to benefit Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. After beginning his sports career in San Diego with the Padres (1995-2002), Dee followed his mentor, CEO Larry Lucchino, to Boston and assumed the role of Executive Vice President of Business Affairs for the Red Sox. He was promoted to Chief Operating Officer in 2004, a position he held until his departure to join the Dolphins. During his tenure in Boston, the Red Sox won two World Series titles and set franchise records for attendance and revenue each year including an MLB record for consecutive sellouts dating back to 2003. Other noteworthy achievements while in Boston include bringing annual concerts to Fenway Park and directing the expansion of the teams business and real estate interests that stemmed from the eight-year renovation of Fenway Park and the surrounding neighborhood. Dee also has a history of working in the Sunshine State, having consummated a 30-year agreement with Lee County Florida to build the Red Sox a publicly-financed Spring Training facility that is set to open in 2012. Dee also served as President of Fenway Sports Group, a company that he created in 2004 under the direction of Red Sox owners John Henry and Tom Werner.

JEFF IRELANDGENERAL MANAGER

COLLEGE: BAYLOR NFL: 15TH SEASON DOLPHINS: FOURTH SEASON

Jeff Ireland was named as the Dolphins General Manager on January 2, 2008. He joined the club after a seven-year stint (2001-07) with the Dallas Cowboys, including his last three seasons there as the teams Vice President of College and Pro Scouting. In his role with the Dolphins, Ireland is not only responsible for overseeing and coordinating the college and pro personnel departments, but also helps manage the teams salary cap and player contracts. He supervises all scouting efforts that relate to the college draft, free agency, the Canadian Football League, and personnel of the other 31 NFL teams. Ireland works hand in hand with Head Coach Tony Sparano in implementing a personnel plan to build the Dolphins into a championship caliber team. In Irelands three seasons in Miami, he already has seen some of his acquisitions play a key role in the development of the team. This past season, Jake Long made the Pro Bowl for the third consecutive year while Cameron Wake and Randy Starks blossomed into Pro Bowl performers for the first time. Veteran acquisitions such as Brandon Marshall, Karlos Dansby and Richie Incognito were major contributors to the Dolphins, while rookie draft choice Koa Misi was a starter for the team all season. Following the 2010 season, Ireland significantly upgraded the teams offense through the college draft. In 2009, quarterback Chad Henne, seeing his first significant playing time, won seven of his 13 starts and so far in his career already has accumulated more 300-yard passing games than any quarterback other than Dan Marino in Dolphin history. Rookies also made an immediate impact as Vontae Davis and Sean Smith excelled as starters together in the teams defensive backfield while Brian Hartline made important contributions offensively. Inheriting a 1-15 team in 2008, Irelands first season in Miami, he worked with Executive Vice President of Football Operations Bill Parcells and Sparano to overhaul the teams roster. Their efforts resulted in an 11-5 mark, the AFC East title and a playoff berth, a turnaround unprecedented in NFL annals. Ireland replaced almost half of the roster, bringing on board 27 new faces, including nine new starters. One of those newcomers, quarterback Chad Pennington, went on to win the NFL Comeback Player of the Year award and finished tied for second in voting for the leagues Most Valuable Player award. Also among the new faces Ireland brought on board in 2008 were 11 rookies who made the team, including eight draft choices, three of whom were in the opening day starting lineup. Long, the teams first pick of the draft, went on to earn Pro Bowl honors at the conclusion of the season. Ireland added rookie talent beyond the draft, as Davone Bess had the second-highest single-season reception total in the last 40 years among undrafted college free agents in their rookie season, while rookie free agent kicker Dan Carpenter led the Dolphins in scoring. In 2007, Irelands last season in Dallas, the Cowboys went 13-3 and won the NFC East title. Of the 53 players on the active roster, 38 had been acquired over the three years (200507) Ireland served as the teams Vice President of Scouting. Seven of those players made the Pro Bowl during that time, including DeMarcus Ware (Irelands first pick as the teams lead scout), fellow 2005 fourth round selections Chris Canty and Marion Barber, 2007 draft choice Nick Folk and two free agent acquisitions that season, Leonard Davis and Ken Hamlin. In addition, since Ireland arrived in Dallas, seven other Cowboys made their Pro Bowl debuts. Ireland began his tenure with the Cowboys as the teams national scout in 2001, evaluating all of the top collegiate prospects in the country. In his four years in that role, his skill as a talent evaluator helped lead to the drafting of four Pro Bowl performers, Roy Williams (who was selected five straight years), Terence Newman, Andre Gurode and Jason Witten. Prior to joining the Cowboys, Ireland spent four years in Kansas City as an area scout helping the Chiefs draft players like Dante Hall in the fifth round and Greg Wesley in the third

Ireland 23

round. Ireland started his NFL career evaluating talent as an area scout for the National Football Scouting Combine from 1994-1996. Before becoming a full-time talent evaluator, Ireland helped coach special teams at the University of North Texas from 1992-1993. He was a four-year starter as a placekicker at Baylor University from 1988-1991, finishing his collegiate career third on Baylors all time scoring list with 213 points.
