Here is some info on him.

2004
Carey was a first-round draft choice (19th overall) of his hometown Miami Dolphins in the 2004 NFL Draft. He was the third offensive lineman selected, behind only Iowa offensive tackle Robert Gallery (2nd, Oakland Raiders) and Arkansas offensive guard Shawn Andrews (16th, Philadelphia Eagles). The Dolphin signed Carey to a five-year, $8.6 million deal. Carey earned $6.3 million in total salary in his first year.

Carey was tried at both tackle and guard during training camp his rookie season. He went on to play in 14 games, including two starts. The first of his NFL career came when he opened at right tackle in place of the injured John St. Clair (ankle) at the New England Patriots on October 10. He also opened at that spot the following week at the Buffalo Bills. Carey struggled at times during his rookie campaign, but showed enough promise to be a solid starter in the near future.

[edit] 2005
Carey was originally planned to be the starter at left tackle in 2005, but he was shifted to right tackle in August. He went on to play in all 16 games, including 14 starts at right tackle. He secured the right tackle job following the benching of Stockar McDougle after Week 6. Carey was part of a line that yielded just 26 sacks - the fourth-lowest total in the NFL - and led a running game that averaged 118.6 yards an outing and 4.3 yards per rush attempt, which ranked seventh and fourth in the AFC. He took part in all but one offensive snap over the final 11 weeks of the season.

[edit] 2006
The team once again considered moving Carey in 2006 - this time to right guard - however that notion was quickly abandoned. During a season when the Dolphins' offensive line mightily struggled early in the year, Carey was the lone bright spot. Starting all 16 games of the year at right tackle, Carey was by far the Dolphins' most consistent and productive offensive lineman.

[edit] 2007
During a news conference that occurred during the first day of the 2007 NFL Draft, Coach Cam Cameron announced that Carey is now the team's starting left tackle
