Jeff Ireland and the Dolphins scouts have a good connection to the University of Montana (Dan Carpenter, Lex Hilliard, Jimmy Wilson).
This year, three prospects from Montana are sure to get a look-see by the Dolphins scouts:
1.) Trumaine Johnson, DB, 6'2", 204
Reminds me of Sean Smith in many ways, California kid. Possible 2nd Round pick.

2.) Charles Burton, OL, 6'5", 315
Big, nasty o-lineman. Played both guard and tackle for the Grizzlies. Worth a look in the later rounds.
Good article on the kid: http://missoulian.com/college/griz/article_13da035c-e617-11e0-84a9-001cc4c03286.html
3.) Kavario Middleton, TE, 6'5", 248
3rd ranked TE in the country coming out of high school. Dismissed from the University of Washington after violating team rules, was thought to transfer to Nebraska but ended up at Montana. Good size, caught 26 passes (3 TDs) in 2010 for Washington. A late-round prospect with upside.
