I think Miami is going to be "stuck" at 19. Teams are not giving away picks in this deep draft.
scuttlebutt is that if martin is gone miami looks to trade down and takes bitonio...i like the player but the only thing i will say about that is if it fails at tackle right tackle with albert here i don't see the strength to kick inside and not get tossed around...22 reps of 225 doesn't lend itself to a anchor guy...i get that strength can be built up but i would expect some issues when matched up against strength inside...in the early going at least...martin did 29 reps as a comparison
more plug and play at tackle than guard imo...bitonio shows as a very effective cut blocker in space...
whether or not i buy that current scuttlebutt or not is another thing though...if they do end up trading down and taking bitonio you can bet your sweet ass that all that "i take bpa" stuff from hickey was hot air...that would be a need pick as much as anything..the only thing he'd be doing is moving to where the grade matches the need and forgoing bpa
I will say this....if Mosley and Martin are gone....prey that one of the big QB falls and Cleveland wants to jump infront of the Cards to grab him....
I'm just hoping Cooks gets hyped so the Saints trade with us.
if we do trade out that's what i think it will be about...a team jumping up for a qb in front of zona and cleveland or cleveland coming up to us...but zona also has a major tackle need so they could fill that anyways in round 1 or they could try to jump us should a certain tackle still be there at pick 18...
mosleys medical tells me he will be there come pick 19...may be there after too if it's as big a red flag as i'm hearing...

a lot of latimer buzz to the saints right now...the wr out of indiana
I agree Cooks goes to the Jets FWIW.
Plus, in such a deep draft of receivers, I am confused why every wants to jump on at 19, when the line, LB's and DB's are all of more need AND might be graded higher than a Marquise Lee.
Better pray hard. Ebron is a stud and likely a top 10 pick.
