I'd take the Top 5 OT's + Fautanu ahead of Jackson Powers-Johnson.
See, although I prefer JPJ, I can atleast respect or understand taking a tackle like Mims.
However, what I don't want to happen is Miami believing they can trade down to get an extra pick and settle on the next tier player.
For instance, JPJ or Mims is on the board but we get a hypothetical offer from say Detroit for 29 and 61.
I don't like the thinking of, well Morgan or Barton are good options to fall back on plus we can get another solid player.
I always say there's a reason why JPJ may not last to 21 and Van Pran will be available at 55.
Of course, Van Pran could turn out to be the best Center. We don't know.
But I don't want to go in not taking the best option and hoping the next level.guys pan out.
I don't want another Austin Jackson or Creed Humphrey scenario. Jackson's OK, but if we were just willing to trade a 3rd, we could have had Wirfs.
Same with Eichenberg. We decided to trade a 3rd to trade up for Eichenberg. We took him over Humphrey, probably for the sam e reason some say you DONT take a C in the 1st round because it's not a premium position. So Miami drafted the tackle over the C.
Imagine how diferrent this team is, right now with Wirfs and Humphrey.
So, if Mims or JPJ are there I don't care really about picking up a 2nd or 3rd. You take the best.
I would hate to trade down, then draft a guy like Barton only to see him be a decent linemen, meanwhile JPJ goes on to a hall of fame career lol.
Of course, if they are gone, by all means trade away.
So, if JPJ and Mims are there, I'm taking JPJ. However, I will be ecstatic if Mims is the pick.
I will cry if either Mims or JPJ are there at 21 and we trade down lol
