Tommy-tiger
All-Pro
1. Jake Long, OT, Michigan
I don't like this pick. I don't think Jake Long can be a great left tackle in the NFL. He'll be a great run blocker, but as far as pass protection is concerned, he'll need a lot of work. I just don't see him making the impact Joe Thomas made for the Browns last year. (Pick Grade: C)
32. Phillip Merling, DE, Clemson
Steal. There's no reason Phillip Merling should have made it past 21. When the Dolphins took him, I forgot he was still on the board. (Pick Grade: A)
57. Chad Henne, QB, Michigan
I don't like Chad Henne - he's way too inconsistent - but I thought he was good value at 57. He can't be any worse than John Beck, right? (Pick Grade: C)
66. Kendall Langford, DE, Hampton
Mike Maylock loves this pick, and so do I. Kendall Langford's probably the best five-technique available. (Pick Grade: A)
110. Shawn Murphy, G, Utah State
Nice. A seventh-round prospect in the fourth. Good job, Tuna. At least it's a position of need. (Pick Grade: D)
176. Jalen Parmele, RB, Toledo
I think I had this pick in my mock prior to the Akin Ayodele trade that saw Miami surrender its sixth-round pick. The Dolphins need depth at running back because Ronnie Brown's always injured and Ricky Williams is always high. (Pick Grade: A)
195. Donald Thomas, G, Connecticut
Steal. Donald Thomas was projected to go in the third round. I wouldn't be surprised if Thomas starts during the latter stages of the 2008 season. (Pick Grade: A)
204. Lex Hilliard, RB, Montana
More depth at running back is a must, but there are better options. (Pick Grade: C)
245. Lionel Dotson, DE, Arizona
Yet another defensive end for the Dolphins. Is Jason Taylor on the move? (Pick Grade: B)
