first Round (#28) DE Jared Rodrick, Penn State
Key Player(s) Passed On: DE/OLB Jerry Hughes
Examination: It is elusive flaw with the Rodrick determination. He was an awesome player at Penn State and has the long arms and stature to play cautious end in Miami’s 3-4 guard. Rodrick will fit in pleasantly on the Miami Dolphins‘ cautious line. Miami required outside linebacker possibilities who can surge the quarterback. Jerry Hughes was one of the better school guarded closures who could have been changed over to outside linebacker in this draft. Hughes would have been a strong determination. Be that as it may, Rodrick was an in a general sense sound and likely the more secure pick. Miami has a youthful and skilled guarded line (DE Philip Merlin, DE Jared Rodrick, NT Randy Starks and hold DE Kendall Langford) that ought to be useful for various years.
second Round (#40) DE Koa Misi, Utah
Key Player(s) Passed On: DE Sergio Kindle
Investigation: The loss of Joey Porter and Jason Taylor made finding a youthful pass rusher at outside linebacker an extremely high need. The Dolphins picked Koa Misi over Sergio Kindle. Misi reliably gives great exertion, however he needs to adapt all the more counter moves. He likewise needs to complete plays better. The previous Ute draws near, however lets quarterbacks and running backs get away from his grip again and again. PFDN favored Kindle over Misi by a decent measure. Which outside linebacker prospect to draft was a key choice for Miami. Ignite and Misi will be looked at for a considerable length of time. Miami will be feeling the loss of a ton of pass surge pressure with the takeoffs of Porter and Taylor. Miami needs to trust that Misi modifies well to the outside linebacker position and changes over more open doors into sacks and handles for misfortune.
third Round (#73) OT/OG John Jerry, Mississippi
Key Player(s) Passed On: S Chad Jones
Investigation: Jerry gets an opportunity to be a quality beginning watchman in the NFL. He needs to raise his molding level to arrive at his maximum capacity. Jerry’s run blocking ability will enable a Miami to line that is a lot more grounded at handle than it is inside. The wellbeing play for Miami last season was feeble. The group discharged Gabril Wilson and could utilize extra ability. Chad Jones would have seemed well and good since he is simply starting to expose his latent capacity. John Jerry was a strong pick. Be that as it may, wellbeing was a greater shortcoming than the hostile line and Jones has generous upside.
fourth Round (#119) LB A.J. Edds, Iowa
Key Player(s) Passed On: CB Akwasi Owusu-Ansah
Investigation: Edds is a keen and on a very basic level sound player. He can be a strong reinforcement and contribute on third down passing circumstances. He isn’t quite a bit of a pass rusher, however Edds has a decent vibe for pass inclusion. We thought Owusu-Ansah had more upside potential. Miami needs assistance in the optional and Owusu-Ansah has potential at cornerback and free security. Edds can cut out a specialty for himself in the Dolphins’ guard, yet we question that he will ever be more than a situational player.
fifth Round (#145) CB Nolan Carroll, Maryland
Key Player(s) Passed On: TE Andrew Quarless
Examination: Carroll had a great deal of damage issues in school and missed the vast majority of his senior season with a wrecked leg. Miami missed Will Allen when he was harmed last season. Each group needs to have quality profundity at corner back. Be that as it may, Carroll is a crude size/speed prospect who didn’t make numerous plays as a corner back for Maryland. He additionally was not a hazardous kick returner. Andrew Sugarless would have given quality profundity behind Anthony Casanova. Quarless runs superior to Fasano and has beginning potential. Dolphins’ senior supervisor, Jeff Ireland, avoids character dangers and likely passed on Quarless hence. Sugarless indicated greater development as a senior and spoke to little hazard in the fifth round.
fifth Round (#163) S Reshad Jones, Georgia
Key Player(s) Passed On: RB Jonathan Dwyer
Examination: Reshad Jones was a good pick in the fifth round. He showed a blend of hitting capacity and ball abilities at Georgia from the solid and free wellbeing position. He additionally was exceptionally conflicting and committed mental errors in inclusion. The greatest inquiry concerning Jones is how well will he handle the psychological side of diagnosing entangled star passing assaults? Miami has Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown at running back, yet the two of them have issues. Williams is 33 years of age and Brown is 28 and coming back from another damage. Jonathan Dwyer is a youthful, huge back who could have infused youth into a place that is getting long in the tooth.
seventh Round (#212) DE Chris McCoy, Middle Tennessee State
Key Player (s) Passed On: TE Dorin Dickerson
Investigation: McCoy is a change venture from protective end to outside linebacker. He had a beneficial senior season (64 handles, 20 handles for misfortunes and 7 sacks), however it took him until his fifth year to be a full-time starter. McCoy isn’t uncommonly speedy, solid or quick. He faces one in a million chances to be anything over not too bad profundity. Dickerson is actually a H-back. He gets the ball well and has speed. Miami may have had the option to think of a hostile bundle on passing circumstances to exploit his range of abilities.
seventh Round (#252) LB Austin Spitler, Ohio State
Key Player(s) Passed On: CB Donovan Warren
Examination: Spitler spent quite a bit of his profession at Ohio State backing up James Laurinaitis at center linebacker. He played more as a redshirt senior and had unobtrusive creation. Spitler is a decent extraordinary groups player and he should be solid in this division to make the Dolphins. PFDN appraised Donovan Warren as the better possibility with increasingly potential. Warren is agreeable in press inclusion and could have been attempted at free security. Warren dropped like a stone in the draft mostly because of an awful lower leg that brought about moderate multiple times. He was a three-year starter at Michigan. Warren obviously committed an error from a draft outlook in turning out after his actual junior season. He has ability and we thought he merited a late-round determination to verify his administrations and see what he can do in camp.
Main concern: Miami left away with three potential starters (Odrick, Misi and Jerry) from this draft. The Miami Dolphins truly need Misi to form into an outside linebacker who can post twofold digit sack sums reliably. We question whether he is that sort of player. The group didn’t enough address their well being position, as we would like to think. Miami likewise didn’t add a youthful running back to the blend and passed on improving the profundity at tight end.
Evaluation: B-
Our full-time, all year examination of game film, dialog with mentors and coaches and live practice perceptions are the reason for our appraisals and draft load up. Ability evaluates must be careful, however ought to consistently recall this is more craftsmanship than science.
