Vontae Davis, Laremy Tunsil, Ryan Tannehill & Minkah Fitzpatrick are the only ones to make pro bowls/all teams after leaving Miami.

So in total Miami has drafted players in the first round to make

PRO BOWLS:9
ALL PRO:2

Don't really care about the Pro Bowls, but the lack of all pros, especially from top 5 picks is alarming. What's the problem here fellas? I know I've been saying the one constant has been Grier, but really where is Miami sourcing their scout team from? How do you keep missing this badly year in and year out on 1st rd picks? These should be the easiest ones to make. Also that's a lot of years on passing on QB when you don't have one. 4 1st rd picks spent on the OL alone last 10 years and it's still a mess. 3 top 15 picks used for DL....no pass rush.

I'm really starting to think Miami is just better off trading 1st rd picks for proven players. It worked with Miami giving up picks for Surtain and Ricky Williams instead of drafting more possible mediocre players in 2000, 2002 and 2003.

Has Ross done a full cleaning with the scouting department yet?

My biggest frustration with this team is how much we have not focused on getting a legitimate big time GM. Things wont change until then. Chris Grier got us to the point of needing a rebuild and then we let him handle the rebuild. That was more than stupid.
 
Wow that is depressing.
Would love to see the Patriots last 21 first round picks.
 
Really is pathetic. I have been a very solid fan for over 40 years, including growing up in NJ and back in the day no internet so virtually no coverage. I earned my fan stripes to be critical and man, somethings got to give.
 
It all starts from the top down. Ownership has been a problem ever since Joe Robbie passed away and passed this team on. Huizenga had Marino and Shula but we barely did anything with them in their later years. Then once Stephen Ross took over we have done NOTHING. ZERO.

Some People on here can’t grasp that poor ownership results in poor hirings which result in poor results on the field. They think the owner’s job is just to write a blank check but it’s far more involved than that. I firmly believe this team will never truly succeed with Ross as owner.

I pointed this out in another thread along with the ridiculous decisions Ross made like bringing in B-list celebrities as minority owners and adding a night club in the stadium. And I was ridiculed and asked sarcastic questions like “why does that matter, are the players working in the night club?”

Anyone who can’t see that Ross has SCARED AWAY potential hires and players with his asinine decisions is just in denial or too naive to understand. Good GM’s, good coaches and good players can smell BS and desperation and they will NOT want to be a part of this franchise when u have an incompetent owner.

I used the Rooneys as an example of REAL successful owners and one person simply said “well they just stood the test of time”. Right, because they made GOOD decisions. They don’t f**k around with off field gimmicks. The Steelers don’t even have cheerleaders! But they do have 6 Super Bowl trophies. I also used Robert Kraft as an example and one person said “The Patriots hired Belichik after he failed in New York”. Right, because Kraft was wise enough to know Bill was still a good football mind. Look at HIS draft picks for the last 20 years.

Ownership matters and ours sucks!

Didn't Tannehill make the pro bowl? So Miami and Pats have the same number of players drafted that also made the Pro Bowl at some time in their career.

How to stay irrelevant for 21 years.

1. Draft average to below average talent.
2. Hire coaches who can’t develop talent to play above current skill level.
3. And that’s how you a Miami dolphins franchise

It wouldn't be too bad if Miami had a QB during all that, but to constantly be missing and not have a QB is exasperating contributions to being irrelevant for 2 decades like you said.

NE drafted 8 1st round players to make pro bowls, Seymour and Wilfork are possible HOF candidates, Miami only drafted 4 players (totaling 9 pro bowls w/miami) since 2000.

The only truly great players we drafted in this span have been Long (HOF caliber) and Surtain. Minkah may someday qualify. So many duds, reaches and meh guys. What’s alarming to me in looking at this in this context is that it appears we have gotten WORSE in recent years w the Charles Harris, Iggy, Jackson, Wilkins (ok player) etc - you know, since Grier has been the GM. He sucks worse than Tannenbaum and Ireland if you look at it objectively. And those guys sucked royally.

2004 I wanted Wilfork over Carey. Carey was Ok but nothing special, but the OL was still mediocre. Hurt every time I saw Wilfork push around Carey and Miami's OL when Miami had to play NE.

That one gets a pass from me as Carey was one of the better OL we drafted in 20 years - even if that isn’t saying much.
