Jaylen Wright video profile

He was a great add. It wasn't a huge need as it pertained to the immediate season but he allows us to not have to spend money on the position for the foreseeable future. If our top guys remain healthy this year he should just have a small role as a rookie but with that position, you just never know. We were deep last year and by seasons end it was a different story.

You gotta believe McDaniel is pumped to have this many talented RB's, each of which are a bit different from each other but all possess that main ingredient he covets.

I'm guessing they didn't go into the draft planning to get him and at a certain just couldn't resist. By pick 120 your taking any position regardless of need, if the player looks like he could carve out 8 seasons for you.
 
It was a head scratcher pick after picking Achane last year but I do like it more as Ghost mentioned. The more forceful the running game, the more Tua will feast in the passing game.

The offense was too motion and timing based to gain an advantage which has difficulties in away games with crowd noise.

Play action works everywhere all the time!

Between Achane’s size and mostert’s history I have a feeling we’re gonna see more of Wright than we expect - I’m really glad we got an explosive player who can step in if one of them goes down
 
I called for this pick...

I had RB listed as a priority for this year's draft, and honestly, I'm surprised that so many were surprised.

Mostert is old for a RB and has a career long pattern of missing games. Just because he finally had a season where he was mostly healthy... while in a platoon... does not make him a good bet to finish even this year, much less future years...

And I know that a lot of folks really LOVE Achane, but he'll never be an every down back. He's too small, and heck... he was injured last year even with limited carries.

I love, LOVE the Wright pick. He was the type of back we needed. When he went undrafted on day 2, I was screaming... pick up the phone, Chris!
 
I'm rarely one for trading away future picks, but as the fourth round began I started to hope the team would flip one of those 2025 3rds for a falling talent. I was elated when they did.

De'Von Achane says Jaylen Wright is 'doing better than I was last year'

Rookie running back Jaylen Wright has a lot to prove if he hopes to see the ball much in 2024. The crowded Miami Dolphins backfield is headlined by Raheem Mostert, who led the NFL in rushing touchdowns last season, and De'Von Achane, who averaged an absurd 7.8…
