Not that I'm used to seeing us have have effective rookie contributions, but it saddened me today when it took me some thinking to remember the guys we drafted. The only ones that come to mind immediately are Cordrea Tankersly since I have seen him on the inactive list on Rotoworld two weeks in a row and then Raekwon since he was hurt first preseason game in memorable fashion. The saddest thing is that AFAIK our first round pick is playing, but I can't even remember seeing him except for an out of position play on a run in week one.

I'm not calling anyone we drafted a bust after two games, just that its disheartening when an entire draft class has played through four preseason games and two regular season games I can't look at one of them and feel great about their potential. You always like to hang your hat on that after two underwhelming games.
 
Harris has been invisible, McMillian is on IR, Tankersley & Asiata weren't even active for either of the games. Way too early to call anyone a bust but you expect to get more from your top draft picks. Tannenbaum/Greer have been less than impressive with their picks/moves. What is very discouraging is the Dolphins will most likely have a fairly high pick going into the 2018 draft who will need to contribute immediately.

It's sad that Tank has been inactive and we've seen nothing but garbage from our corners so far

Ozzy rules!!

This has to change. Realistically, it would be pretty difficult for Tankersly to perform worse than Maxwell, Howard, or Verner have so far.

Davon Godchaux had two offsides penalties on two consecutive plays in a row.

That's memorable.

Seems obvious but I forgot about him. Despite the disappointment we're getting as well as we could expect from that draft position.

Yeah, I've heard people ignorantly say that about the secondary. It can get much, much, much worse. Did you even watch in 2007?
 
So far it's been a very shitty draft! No impact players from the draft again. When's the last 1st round pick that made a difference from game 1? Long?

Tannehill and Long as far as contributing significantly. Not much else from Miami 1st rd picks in a long long time. They haven’t drafted a true stud consistent pro bowler in rd 1 since marino
