What I've been reading is that with Big Nick coming into Miami and switching their D-scheme he wants more "reliable" cover corners. Surtain has put up fantastic numbers but is not excatly a "cover" corner. He plays with too much space and takes too many chances--sure he makes alot of plays because of those instincts and has racked up the INTs, but he also gets burned alot becuase of a misread and going for the turnover rather than trying to prevent the catch.
But the biggest reason as has alredy been mentioned is to free up cap space! Miami is in some trouble with all the vets they have on D and have to cut somewhere.
