It's National Signing Day - the annual date when college football fans live and die with the decisions made by 17 and 18 year old kids. That means the day will consist of made-for-TV moments where a high school football players put on a college team's hat, and families will (mostly) celebrate.

With National Signing Day upon us, I wondered how the Miami Dolphins' players rated when they were coming out of high school. Using Rivals.com, I looked up the 60 players on the Dolphins' active roster, injured reserve, and non-football injury list. Below are the rankings for each player.

Rivals.com rates players on a 1-5 star rating, as well as giving them all a score ranging from 4.9 up to 6.1. As they explain it, a 6.1 is a franchise player, 5.8-6.0 is an All-American candidate, a 5.5-5.7 is an All-Region selection, 5.0-5.4 is a Division I prospect, and a 4.9 was given to players that weren't known to the Rivals.com scouts. Both the stars and the ratings are in the chart below.

Of course, not all players were available. Some players' recruitment from high school to college pre-dates Rivals.com. Some were never on major schools' radars, and weren't picked up by Rivals.com. Some may have had a grade, but it's no longer available. Those players are all listed at the bottom of the chart.

Before we get to the list, it's interesting to note how few five- and four-star high school prospects are on the Dolphins roster. There are nearly as many two star prospects (14) as combined four- and five-star (15). It does show that the high school star ratings do not necessarily translate to success at the college or pro levels.

Here's the Dolphins' roster:
