AFC East Draft Review - Dolphins top of the class

[royalshank]

Pretty spot on. What stood out to me was I didn’t realize Eichenberg had 10 penalties and 9 sacks given up. If he becomes a quality starter, this really does go down (assuming our 3 studs from the class continue to be ballers) as one of the best draft classes in team history.

MAXIMUM WADDLE
love it, hope he gets the chance to better show his speed under McD.

That was good. We did crush this draft.

Love love love Holland!!! I was mad because we didn't pick another WR in the second round but we couldn't have asked for a better player for the position we picked! Can't wait to see how him, Phillips and Waddle progress over the years.

Is it me or is Mac Jones wayyyy overrated after his rookie year? Probowl? 2nd in voting for OROTY ?

Lot of northeast media hype. A lot of the Boston media also had the Pats in the super bowl in the preseason projections. I laughed at that then and I laugh at it now.

Great point about Eichenberg. I think he’s played enough to show he really should be inside at guard (or even center?)..

His frame looks like something between a guard and a tackle to me. A “Gackle” ?

This new system/scheme requires so much movement by both guards and center that foot speed is necessary.Maybe right tackle for Eichenberg.

Looks like a poor man’s Jimmy G to me

One word...Patriots.

If Miami had picked Jones this past year, who went on to be top 5 in stats, had won 12 games, and led Miami deep into to the playoffs...He probably would not have been picked for the Probowl, and probably 4th or 5th for OROTY, behind whomever picked Waddle and his 100+ reception season.

It's unfortunately how it has become for the Pats and Dolphins.

I'm going to use Gackle in the future, what is the copyright fee? lol.....

Seriously our entire line is full of gackles....

Don't want to discredit Jones, but the win over Buffalo where he threw all of three passes and New England won kind of epitomized his season.

Bellichick didn't ask him to do much, but when the Patriots trailed and needed Jones to step up it didn't often happen.

If he had the exact same season anywhere else, I doubt Jones gets nearly as much credit.

To be fair, I thought he was decent.

Jones was mediocre as hell. He's not some messiah reading defenses either - it's kinda wild how much Belichick covers up for a kid
