Drafting Two Impact Players For This Year?

[So Be]

Reality says that we will not get more than two impact players for this year from the draft. Which positions should we target?

I have W a #1 but, not sure on #2. Who do you have as the top 2?

For me DT and LB are #1 W is #2 since we were good this year, on the other hand we lack of dominance on D, we need a force to plug in the middle .

i agree with DT and LB... definitely two spots I would definitely love to address right away in the draft.

There are some good depth at OL and CB too, the hopefully we can get some later round picks on too.

Here is something for you to ponder over SB2. He wont be ready to play early and not sure if this is smoke or what.

We may be able to do that with Shelton and Perryman but, I'm all in for a game changing, play making WR at #14.

For me it's DT,WR,CB,MLB and a safety . not in that order but those are immediate needs.

Draft pics don't usually make a big impact the first year though.

I would be in total SHOCK if we went RB early AR. Miller was VG, and Williams was good in limited play, with both being very young. Add in a vet and we are set.

They do not, and two is about all we can hope for. Look at last year. James and Landry made an impact, impressed as rookies but, were far from great. We need to be realistic on what to expect from this year's draft for this year.

I wouldn't be surprised at all. Gurley is an elite talent. I like Miller…and Williams is okay but you don't pass on elite talent because of those guys. There were people here last year saying they wouldn't take Aaron Donald if he fell to us because we already had 3 good DTs. Of course he never made it to us but you can see how fast things change…you don't pass up a talent like that for needs.

i know what you mean, but a first round pick for a RB would surprise me due to the other more pressing needs Miami has, plus the obvious huge chances of injury or bust with top RBs out of the first round. ACL!!!!

one last thing that would add to my surprise is the wealth of ability at the draft in RB too, instead of just snagging one in the first round

BPA at 14
This team needs playmakers on both sides of the ball

Yeah, a 4 game suspension and ACL surgery. Just what we are looking for in a RB who may get 7-8 snaps a game. Be still my heart. :)

I think I would focus on defense and look for a stud LB, DT or CB.

I would try to address the WR spot through FA....

I'd go WR at 14 if the value is there. I just don't want to reach based on need. I don't think Shelton is going to be there but then again I want a DT in free agengy and a playmaking WR at 14.
