13th pick who you be taking?

Miami has done extensive scouting on Georgia safety Malachi Starks and LB Jalon Walker. They've also heavily scouted DT DJ Sanders. But he's more of a day 2 guy.

Picking #13 I'd keep an eye on.
1) Jalon Walker
2) Kelvin Banks
3) Malachi Starks
4) Kenneth Grant

Mason Graham is possible if he falls.
I like grant out of those optiona
 
I’d be all over Mason Graham but I don’t know if he gets to 13. I’d be doing some work on Jaxon Dart for the second round.

This. I can't figure out how Graham would fall to (or near) 13, but if he does...a line with him, Seiler, Chop, and whichever other Edge rusher body parts decide to make an appearance would be fun.

I have mixed opinions on Dart. Everything I read is good, but every time I watch him, he makes terrible decisions.
 
Like Chop?
Hey smartass your defending Grier? Dolphins are a joke of a team going nowhere. I said in order to have a chance this season to succeed we needed guards. Guess what that’s still the case & y we are not playoff team. Go ride Grier dick somewhere else
 
We're not going to get much from Free Agency. It's best to get that out of people's heads right away. We'll be in the mid-range market and picking up the guys left out of the first wave of signings... we just don't have the money.
Chubb and Armstead are probably both post June releases, and if we do trade Hill, that will come with an ugly and immediate cap charge.

Any brother that comes in here and says 'just restructure' the existing contracts should be ritualistically killed due to stupidity.

Money WILL be tight and the key to this offseason will be those 10 draft picks.

Good luck if Grier is in charge
 
Well, obviously so much depends on free agency. Ideally, Miami would land an upgrade at guard during the free agent period. To me that would really open up the draft to concentrate mostly on defense. That's the strength of the draft.

That said, my biggest draft crush is probably Warren (yes a tight end) because I can visualize what he'd mean to the Dolphins offense. But, I'd be happy with any of the following that are also high on my list.

Graham DT - just a monster. I think he'll be gone.
Nolen DT - I think he may end up being the best pass rusher inside.
Pearce DE -- I think he may end up being the best outside pass rusher.
Starks S -- from a positional value concept, no. But he's so versatile that maybe??
Walker LB -- Talk about versatility.
Ersery OT/OG --- He's often mocked to SF as a scheme fit there. Which means he likely fits with Miami. Can play tackle or guard.

Any of the three larger DE's -- Landon Jackson (love him, though he has had injuries), Nic Scourton, Shemar Stewart)
Can believe I'm going to do this but I have to. Big Georgia fan, watch every game at least once. I'm going to tell you that the 2 Georgia kids you listed aren't right for Miami, at least at 13

Jalon Walker is very similar to Chop, great first step but is really just an edge, not an all around LB. I think we'd have two smaller edges who probably would invite OCs to run right at them.

Malachai Starks is a good safety but much like Jevon Holland struggled to make big plays in the last 2 years. I wish I could tell you that he comps to Minkah Fitzpatrick or Sean Taylor but he doesn't.

I saw Pearce and Scourton play great this year and if they can hold up against the run and are closer to 265, 270 I'd look that way. Stewart is huge but I don't think the production is there
 
OL all seven rounds. Why not? Nothing else has worked for twenty years.
