It's quite obviously a rebuild.........

[NYC#1finsfan]

The consensus on all of our picks are that none of them are ready to step in and contribute immediately &/or possess flaws that need to be coached up. I guess The Fins are really looking at the 3+ year program........Hopefully there is a year this year to at least get some experience under their collective belts.

Grier is filling holes with young talented players who need some time to develop because he knows they can learn in year 1 with Fitzpatrick behind center so they can work out the kinks before Tua is ready to take the field.

 

[Waddle]

Dont post much. My name checks out! But, yes we are and I couldn't be happier with how this is shaking out!

Let's be honest, we have waited a long long time to have a really good team. I dont mind another 2 years or so!

Judging by the end of the year game play, we can still be competitive while rebuilding.

 

['Deep]

I think Hunt and Davis are the two picks that can contribute immediately.

I think Hunt and Davis are the two picks that can contribute immediately.

Agree, Hunt can start immediately at OG or OT, and Raekwon Davis will likely rotate at NT with Zach Sieler and whoever else we get for depth. You don't see too many 4 year Alabama players, which I get why people might think he's not great but he's the best NT option we could've chosen for the rest of the draft.

Remember they have 2 picks in both the 1st and 2nd rounds next year so there will be another wave of young talent coming in to this group.

All the picks make sense scheme wise and all of them are upside picks.

Not a huge fan of the Davis pick but he does have some physical traits that they obviously like.

Maybe they get Jeremy Chinn at 70.

Or Zack Moss.

Considering how this staff coached up guys who mostly came off the street and wouldn't have been on any other NFL roster, I'm not really worried about it and think these guys will be just fine

 

[Dolph N.Fan]

I mean during the season a lot people did say they wanted all corn fed beefy lineman after #5 lol

 

[BigNastyFish]

...speculation.

You can "rebuild" with dudes ready to play as well.

I support the regime BUT... the fuse is already lit.

Pretty much every pick we've made has "qualifiers" attached

that essentially defer to "next year" as opposed to ready for live bullets.

I have to wonder if we're THAT smart? Or

maybe not.

Just seems to me we're not attacking the talent base of this draft class

the way I thought we would. for sure that doesn't mean I'm "right"

and they're wrong. But like I said... the fuse is lit.

Ain't no one around here ready for 3-5 years!!!!!

Dolphins need to Trade Up next year. This year we're going 'Quantity' (throwing **** at the wall and seeing what sticks) but next year they need to go for QUALITY. Trade Up for the BEST offensive Tackle but probably even more, trade up for the Best Pass Rusher possible, cuz we got Jack **** for pass rush right now.

 

[ChitownPhins28]

While opposing QBs have all day to throw, our only hope is that they'll find no one open. Im hoping that more than one of our CBs can be a very good Safety, or at least play center-field on some pass plays.
This goof with the silly last name that we drafted better be very good. Im thinking we're looking to trade X at some point in the calendar year 2020, so probably at the trade deadline unless we're in the hunt for the playoffs (not likely).

Tell ya one thing: Bobby McCain should be putting his crib on the market yesterday.

Because of Covid19 it is going to be harder to coach up the younger player this year. There is no timetable at this time regarding when the coaches can even bring the players in. There will be no rookie camp at this time and there might not be a training camp during the next 3 or 4 months.
While not being able to coach up the players drafted this year will impact every team. It is going to impact the Dolphins the most because they will have so many rookies from this draft along with the free agent rookies they will be signing. They also have a new offensive and defensive coordinator this year which will impact the players who were on the team last year.
The more time all these young players miss with the coaching staff, the harder it is going to be for them to contribute next season. Especially since it appears that a lot of these picks are players who are not ready to step in and play immediately but players who were drafted to hopefully develop into solid players over the next several years.

This is just nuts. ×××× up against the wall?

Trade ups next year? If anything they need to keep adding more picks next year. Trade backs and assets. Seeing NE do it again in this years 1st, says their formula remains in place.

You people really expect this Country to be in a holding pattern in August? Seriously?

The NFL season will go on as scheduled. Fans choosing to attend games, might be taking risks. But we take risks EVERYDAY. And there are still millions of people currently working.
