Miami Dolphins DE Phillip Merling was arrested on Wednesday and charged with an alleged aggravated battery on a pregnant woman.

Merling, 6-5, 305 pounds, is a third-year player who has appeared in all 32 games for the Dolphins his first two seasons. He was arrested in Broward County, Fla, where the local sheriff's website reported that Merling should have known the alleged victim is pregnant.

There are few details on the allegations thus far.

The Dolphins are scheduled to open a veteran minicamp on Friday.

Were building this team with character guys.

not to sound like a dick but who cares.

I thought you's would get a kick out of it. Merling is player i think most dolfans were counting on maturing and blossoming into a good player. With the move of Starks to NT we needed him to step up in our DE rotation.

P.S. I predict another Fins player to be arrested over memorial day weekend.

I don't see why Starks to NT is mistake. We've rotated him into the postion before and he's done a good job. He played DT for the Titans and if your bringing size into the debate, Starks is 6'3 305 and Fergurson is 6'3 310 and Ferguson has done a good job for us the last couple of years. I think Starks will be fine. We have a good rotation at DE (Langford, Oderick, Merling, McDaniels) so the move to NT doesn't hurt us there.

hey if you're satisfied with mediocrity at NT then thats cool. i dont think ferguson was much of a 3-4NT either. but whatever......alli can say is that if they're counting on starks to 2-gap and hold the line you're gonna be in for along season imo
