The Facts:
In one afternoon, the Dolphins parted ways with last season's two leading receivers, releasing McMichael and trading WR Wes Welker to the Patriots. By releasing McMichael, the Dolphins will avoid paying him a $3 million roster bonus that would be owed to him in the coming days.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The team has already taken some action to replace McMichael, signing Packers tight end David Martin as the first free agent acquisition of the offseason. Martin, who caught 21 passes in 11 games for Green Bay last season, is known as a pass-catching tight end. He has played the past six seasons in Green Bay.
