2020 NFL Draft: Here's how the Dolphins can ace the first round

I'm loving the Isaiah Simmons scenario. That guy sounds and looks like he can do what Brian Flores wanted Minkah Fitzpatrick to do. He also looks better doing it. He is a defensive weapon. Reminds me of a Troy Polamalu offense wrecking kind of guy. Worth grabbing, and getting quarterback with the second pick. Not blown away by Tua all that much, because not too many heavily recruited quarterbacks would look bad throwing to a core of first round pick caliber receivers. And oh yeah, that is with tons of time to throw. Don't want to take a chance on a guy with an injury history and an offensive line that is still under construction. Yes, the offensive line will be better, but it is still an unknown. The less unknowns out there the better. An injured prospect quarterback and an old quarterback does not sound as bad as a healthy prospect quarterback, that may not be as good at the moment, but there is a reason why a teacher / offensive coordinator was hired to make him a better quarterback quarterback and an old quarterback.
 
I don't like the one where we waste a 1st round pick on a running back.

Option 1 is one I have done in one of my many mock draft simulations. Sometimes it is Delpit or a different OT but I like the combo of QB/OT/S seems to line up with the board and the Fin's needs.

Option 3 I think I take Derek Brown at 5 instead of Simmons, or one of the top OT's. I love Ruiz and if the Fins felt strongly about Love then I would be good with that one too.

I want to come out of this Draft with the QB of the future and several OL pieces to protect him.

Any offensive weapons(I would like to add an explosive WR and a good RB) or defensive players(safety and a pass rusher) would be great but they need to find a QB and then set him up to succeed.

Now IF QB just does not work out then I still want the OL built, but then go BPA while addressing needs, they have enough of them that they should be able to do that without reaching.
 
Scenario 2 doesn’t even have us drafting an Olineman in 1st? Unlikely

I find it interesting the author doesn't have Herbert in any scenario. I think it's not unlikely Miami goes Herbert at #5, depending on the 1st 4 picks.

What’s interesting is Herbert is all the sudden not being talked about...which could indicate he is the target.

We all know the Dolphins spent a lot of time with Herbert... including extra time at his pro day!

While I love the idea of Simmons at #5, feels like a luxury pick after our FA haul.

If we don’t take a QB at #5, we should pivot to LT, I like Wirfs. I really like McKinney from Bama, I would take him at #18 (bit of a reach, but a PERFECT fit for our current secondary). With #26 I go back to tackle and take best available between the kids from HOU or USC or TCU

Then top RB available with our first 2nd round pick, I like the kid from Wisconsin
