Dolphins signing undrafted free agents

You'll remember that by this time last year, the Dolphins had signed an undrafted free agent by the name of Davone Bess - a receiver out of Hawaii.  And all he did was have the 2nd best rookie season ever for an undrafted free agent receiver.

Well the Dolphins, like many NFL teams, are already back at it - signing numerous undrafted players.  Jeff Ireland said on Sunday he expects to add 8 to 10 players as undrafted free agents.

Here are the ones I've come across so far:

TE Jared Bronson, Central Washington
6'4, 255
A pass-catching TE who is athletic and can separate from defenders down the field.

OL Mark Lewis, Oregon
6'4, 308
Was told by coaches he'd be a center/guard for the Dolphins.

DE/OLB Orion Martin, Virginia Tech
6'2, 262
A high motor player who might not have the speed needed to successfully convert to OLB (ran a 4.89 40 at Combine).

RB Anthony Kimble, Stanford
