1:Rolando McClain,ILB out of Alabama(6'4",256)[#55]

[W/ more and more juniors declaring,more and more talent will slide,and through recent histroy,ILBs dont go in the top 10.So while I still really dont think he'll get past Denver,or even Kansas City(they took Tyson Jackson,and passed on Aaron Curry last year),I would have to think if he does he would be a shoe-in.Smart,great instincts,and always around the ball,and able to play in coverage]

2:Brandon Graham,SOLB out of Michigan(6'2",263)[#56]

[Graham is exactly like Llmarr Woodley.A second round player that will excell in a 3-4 systeam.Graham is great against the run,and has good enough experience to step in and make an immediate impact.Considering we really dont have a SOLB on roster,I think he will be a great sit opposite Wake/Taylor]

3:Jimmy Graham,TE out of Miami(6'8",260)[#80]

[Exceptional athlet,with rare skills.At 6'8",260 lbs.,Graham runs a 4.6,and posses good change in direction and elusiveness,thanks to being a former basketball player.Jimmy has rare leaping ability,and good hands.Things he would have to work on is route running,consistancy,and blitz pick-up,but the upside and potential is there for the taking]

4:Marcus Easley,WR out of Connecticut(6'2",216)[#89]

[Big,physical WR,whos unafraid to go over the middle.The kind of WR we need to get the YAC.Hes nice and tall,with good strength to go up and fight for the ball.Already has his "man body" of the NFL,and had the consistancy throught his first year starting at WR,as a former walk-on in Sparanos home-state]

6:perry Riley,ILB out of LSU(6'2",245)[#58]

[Nice size and sped for an ILB(4.6),and was a playmaker for the Tigers.Could sit the bench for a few seasons,til Crowders deal is up,and step in,and could be the next Bradie James]

6b:Jorrick Calvin,CB out of Troy(5'11",184)[#44]
clear.gif

[Good size,and a good tackler,which is expected out of Troy University.Has good speed,and should be a project worth taking on]

6c:Jeff Owens,NT out of Georgia(6'1",306)[#93]
clear.gif

[Looking like this at 306,he definately has the frame to add another 12,13 lbs.Working progress type of player,as I think Miami will bring in a stop-gap player wil Owens is a vet. at NT in a 3-4]

7:Keiland Williams,RB out of LSU(6'0",221)[#31]
ChickfilABowlLSZ6Z5SkIPIl-1.jpg

[Nice speed,shows he can come out of the backfield and be a passing option for the QB.About as good as a backup,but there isnt much upside]

7b:Tim Brown,WR(KR/PR) out of Rutgers(5'9",165)[#12]
timmy-2.jpg

[Elite speed,should run within a 4.4,maybe even a 4.3 at the combine.With his size,and unattractive wright,he might very well go undrafted,but Miami could be looking for a WR that can catch,aswell as return the ball.Just this season Tim has 55 catches for over 1,100 yards and 9 touchdowns.Born and raised in Miami,coming from the Jersey area,he might be on Parcells radar]
 
That would be a great draft, a little light in the safety and NT department, but its hard to fill every need through the draft. Free agency should be interesting.

yea,Im anticpating Miami will make FA moves.....btw,mark it dow,tell your friends,Malcom Floyd WILL BE a Miami Dolphin come March
 
It's funny that you still have your old mock up as a sig., but I don't think McClain will be BPA, and I doubt he'll be available (something I'd be grateful for). I love Brandon Graham, and if he falls to the 2nd, he'd be a great pick. I don't know how to feel about J. Graham. He's an exciting athlete, but the 3rd is kind of high for someone so raw.

Overall, nice mock.

My friends would laugh at me if I told them we were getting Malcom Floyd.
 
Ugh... went to school with Jeff Owens. Didn't he blow up his knee?

Otherwise, nice draft.
 
Great Draft.

1. Even if McClain is not there, Brandon Spikes will be, Sergio Kindle, so there are other options.

2. Graham may not last, but he is a heck of player. If Graham is off the board, I think there will be other great options out there like Worilds, Daryl Washington, maybe even Spoon and such.

3. Big TE like Graham may go even higher. But the third looks like a proper spot. The only thing is that by taking TE here you risk losing Marcus Easley in the third.

4. Easley is a great value in the fourth. But if he's not there I think there are some other options here in the fourtht too.

Overall, great job. I agree that the draft should be: LB, LB, WR/TE, WR/TE.
 
i would LOVE to get brandon graham at #43 if he looks good in lb drills...
 
I like. Absolutely love the first 3 picks. Much needed youth and talent at LB, and Jimmy Graham would be a great target for Henne. The rest of the mock is solid. And I highly doubt Floyd is a Dolphin, not that he's anything special anyways (another #2 at best), Antonio Bryant is the one who will be in a Dolphins uni. And he will be good enough to last until next years WR class which should be a great one, unlike this year's weak WR class. Also if we're lucky maybe we get a Karlos Dansby, D'Qwell Jackson or Demeco Ryans as well.
 
we need to make a trade down with either our 1st or 2nd round pick to pick up an additional pick in round 2 or 3 ... with the idea that we can use that pick on Graham later in the third and not miss out on easley.

Dont be shocked if we make a trade that involves next years 3rd or possibly second, depending on the talent available. I know that is not something This regime does but for the right impact player, I can see that.

If San Fran defense wasnt to old, I would talk them into a trade for their two 1st and give them our first and third
 
Grabbing Brandon Graham in the second round would be a coupe, I would love that pick. But I think the combine will raise his stock, which would put him in the position to be drafted early second or may be even a late first round pick.
 
unless we are picking a WR in the first 2 rounds, i highly doubt we will draft another one...doesnt make sense.
 
First 3 picks are solid, the rest isn't bad but I don't like the NT at that spot
