BR: Dolphins Must Draft Explosive WR, Home Run-Threat RB !!

Uh...Lamar Miller ran for a franchise record 97-yard TD...I think he qualifies as a homerun threat RB. If he had run behind the Dallas Cowboys O-line he's have put up 1500+ yards.
 
And a top notch LB ,a probowl guard and a Starting CB...

Draft all the players!!!
 
I don't know much about T.Gurley but the more I see and hear of him the more i like. Curious how does he compare to a Ricky Williams coming out of college?
 
Parker isn't explosive. And Gurley isnt a HR threat. Hes a power back. I think the video fails

How in the world can you say that Gurley isnt a home run threat?? Yes he is a power back, but NOT just that. He is a complete back who can flat out fly and hit the HR at ANY moment.
 
how is gurley not a home run threat...that guy outruns angles with his speed...he's a big back that also has serious wheels and runs with power a la adrian peterson
 
I feel like RB and WR are good to go at least until every other spot is sured up. We need a CB, Guard, and LB. Oh yeah, and someone's gonna have to punt. Is Landry gonna be our punter this year?

Miami needs a power back, Miller already is the homerun back, with a better O-line, he will get more runs like he had against the Jets.

I also believe Miami needs the redzone big receiver, more then the explosive receiver, because Miami has proven to be able to get the ball into the redzone on a more consistent basis then most teams, they just need to get it into the endzone. If Miami is lucky enough to get a big redzone receiver that is also explosive, then icing on the cake.

Hes more about power in my opinion. After tearing an ACL you don't know how fast he will be either. Miller is faster just saying. If speed is the only thing taken into consideration. We have that HR threat

well if you don't think he will regain his top end speed which is a huge part of the package and the draw as a prospect to begin with given that size you shouldnt be considering this guy with a top 15 pick...i see no reason why he wouldnt regain it given the extent of damages to my understanding was acl only

i know i will be very dissappointed if the top end speed he had pre injury is no longer there or never will be again after...as would any team drafting him in the top 20 or so...still melvin gordon added weight to be able to run inside and scraped top end speed in the process gurley has always been fast despite the size and weight...i would think it will carry over and he still will run sub 4.5

if he gets back to preinjury form i think you are looking at low 4.4's
