Zach Thomas the obvious choice here, but what about where he ranks among all-time greats at that number in NFL history?
The countdown to the start of the 2024 regular season has begun now that we're under 100 days away, so we'll honor every day the best players to wear the corresponding number for the Dolphins.
As a reminder about the ground rules, the top three will be determined only by what the players did while wearing that uniform for the Dolphins.LB Wahoo McDaniel , LB Dale McCullers , LB Ted Davis , T Howard Kindig , LB Ralph Ortega , LB Steve Potter , LB Rodell Thomas , LB Alex Moyer , LB Johnny Taylor , LB Steve Lubischer , LB Larry Kolic , LB E.J. Junior , LB Chuck Bullough , LB Zach Thomas This is another number where there is no debate when it comes to the top player.
Thomas became the fourth member of the Hall of Fame who wore mostly 54 in the NFL, joining Brian Urlacher, Randy White and Chuck Howley. For a long time, Urlacher was used as the comp for why Thomas should get inducted, though Urlacher ended up being a first-ballot selection. So maybe that gives him the nod there, but suggesting Zach is a top three player at 54 is no reach.Alain Poupart is the publisher/editor of All Dolphins and co-host of the All Dolphins Podcast.
