obviously they know something you dont since they didnt pick any DB playersCorner, Saftey, and OT?
Those could have been adressed before taking a FB and a punter that both prolly would have gone undrafted and we could sign them then.
And as far as the players go, we could have taken a quality corner before Lorenzo Booker (Daymeion Hughes was still there, and the kid is a playmaking ballhawk), we could have taken Michael Bush over Booker if we really wanted a RB there, as he is a much better prospect. We had chances at a few quality safeties and corners that were dropping, Like Gattis (Rnd 5), Wendling (Rnd 6), Tarell Brown (Rnd 5), plus there are still a few quality guys on the board, like Sharp (Louisville), and Mixon (Cal), and yet we take guys that will go undrafted (P and FB), when those guys (S and CB) will probably get scooped up, and they are a bigger need.
Kelvin Smith is a tackling machine. He's also very strong and has decent size. He'll provide good depth for us at LB. I'm not sure if he has good enough speed to ever be a starter though. Bottom line though is that he is a player.
Brandon Fields is the punter we needed. He is a good one too and we didn't have to draft him in earlier rounds like some of the other teams did.
Welcome to the Phins Kelvin Smith and Brandon Fields!
:bighug:
I hope we get Tim Mixon with our last pick.
Go Phins!
Ever one of them where there, Miami got one! This draft was the worst draft I have seen! Even in 1967 the draft was better then this, and there where no players like there are today! I would have traded up are 60th pick about to the 58th or 59th spot to insure that we would have had are pick of Ikaika Alama-Francis or Kalil in the 2nd round. I like Francis here a lot, we could have got Doug Datish latter on down the line. We need a new GM by the name of Marshall Faulk, who knows talent in the later rounds and would make a nice GM for Miami, and is looking for the job!Here are some guys I like:
Doug Free (as you said)
Ben Patrick - TE
Paul Soliai - DT
Tanard Jackson - CB/S
John Wendling - S
Josh Gattis - S
Jay Moore - DE
Josh Beekman - OG
LeRon McClain - FB
