22[h=3]Taco Charlton[/h][h=4]DE, Michigan[/h]

The Miami Dolphins had an incredible 2016 NFL season, as they were arguably the hottest team in the league for the better half of the season half of the season. The wheels kind of fell off the wagon late in the year, as quarterback Ryan Tannehill injured his knee and had to miss the final few games. Miami had to play their wild card round game with Matt Moore at quarterback, as they were quickly disposed of by the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Heading toward the draft, the Dolphins need to add some depth to the defensive end position. Veteran Mario Williams has likely already played his best football, and the team needs to add someone to go alongside star Cameron Wake on the outside. The Dolphins front could be a serious strength if they could add a player of Taco Charlton’s talent, as they try to repeat on their success of this past season.
Charlton is a special player, who showed just how versatile he can be on the bigger stages this season. He was all over the field in the team’s loss to the Ohio State Buckeyes, but the scouts took notice when he ran down a running back from across the field. He may actually move to linebacker at the next level, but one thing is for sure, he is definitely a first round talent.

Watched Taco play only 2x but he stood out from everybody else both times. As of now I'd be ok with him as a Fin and who better to learn from your first few years than the guy on the other side.
 
Detroit may take him right before us. I'm sure Ross has seen plenty of the kid watching Michigan games. At the very least he may let the FO he likes this kid.

I'm not opposed to it. He is a freakishly athletic DE.. He closes in on QB's quickly... Those split second plays that you have to make on guys like Tyrod Taylor this kid can do.

Extend Cam Wake and let him take Taco under his wing for the next couple years.

Well, Cam is extended for a couple of years, so the team may be thinking as you...not that bringing in Taco would be the only reason to extent Wake. I would not have any problem taking Taco in the 1st.
 
I'm extremely impressed with the way this kid sets the edge in the run game. He's already better at that than anyone currently on our roster. His pass rush looks good as well.
 
Taco Tuesday would be moved to Sunday?
