Dorian Johnson, G, Pittsburgh
The 6-5 300 lb left guard has great footwork. Johnson is the closest thing to a complete left guard in the 2017 NFL Draft at this point. He's still considered the top overall left guard in the FBS.

Strengths: Dorian Johnson has the pass blocking, pass blocking strength, pass blocking footwork, run blocking, run blocking strength, run blocking footwork, and zone blocking you want your starting left guard to have.

Dorian Johnson is a natural fit at left guard. He has long arms and perhaps the wingspan to move to an offensive tackle role in the NFL. That's how highly teams think of him.

Weaknesses: Dorian Johnson is a pretty complete left guard with no weaknesses to his game. Getting injured in the 2016 New Era Pinstripe Bowl raises potential durability concerns.

I think we can all agree it is time for Miami to finally end their OLine woes and put together a good line that would keep Tannehill upright and open up holes for Jay Ajayi. This guy is currently graded as a third rd pick but since Miami wont be picking till the end of the 3rd rd they might want to use their 2nd rd pick on him. Just imgine him and Laremy Tunsil on that right side of the line. Plus he can fill in on the right or left tackle.

id rather try to trade up in the third round if he's there rather than use the 2nd round pick on em
 
As long as we get a dynamic defensive player round 1, I have no problem with this being our 2nd round selection.
 
Fisi, you mean Tunsil and Johnson on the left side of the line. Bushrod or Ted will be the RG with James. I'd be happy with Johnson, Lamp or Pocic. I must admit that Dorian Johnson at 6'5" and NO FLAWS in his game sounds pretty great. We really need excellent athletes that can stay healthy. If we get a full season out of Pouncey I'll be amazed.
 
First sign of poor scouting.

Agreed...if he didn't have any weakness, he'd be a top 10 pick, even as a Guard, and then we'd have to trade up to get him. With that said, I do like him as a player and think he'll become a quality starter. He'll be a decent, but not great, 3rd round pick for us. We could do worse....

Yeah the left side. My bad! I doubt Bushrod makes the starting line up but you'll never know.
