Charles Harris was selected by the Dolphins in the first round to solidify the pass rush and hopefully be the heir apparent to Cameron Wake. Harris played 3-4 outside linebacker at the University of Missouri but was mainly known for his pass rushing ability, tallying an SEC leading 18.5 tackles for loss including seven sacks.

Mike Hull has stepped up and is now projected to be the starting middle linebacker, with Lawrence Timmons and Kiko Alonso on the outside. Harris is currently second on the depth chart at defensive end behind Andre Branch.

Harris is an extremely proficient pass rusher with an excellent first step, and he possesses a spin move that has already become a major weapon in his arsenal.
