2016 Salary cap cuts Miami Dolphins could make to create space

The Miami Dolphins have already started making salary cap space for the 2016 season. Where else could the team make cuts?

The Miami Dolphins have already released defensive end Quinton Coples, cornerback Brice McCain, and offensive tackle Jason Fox, all moves designed to save them salary cap space in 2016. Coples was scheduled to account for $7.75 million against the cap next season, with all of that money now saved by the Dolphins. McCain added $1 million into the dead money category with his release, but being cut also opened up $2.
