Miami Dolphins: What Their Seventh-round Picks Say Of Their Future (pfn Data Lab)

[DKphin]

The Miami Dolphins selected Auburn fullback Chandler Cox, and Washington running back Myles Gaskin in the seventh round with back-to-back picks in the 2019 NFL Draft. Under normal circumstances, a team’s seventh-round selections do not say much about their future plans.
Often, these picks are used on either low-ceiling rotational players or long-term developmental players. But Chandler Cox and Myles Gaskin are different. And the Miami Dolphins selecting them may confirm what many already suspected to be true regarding a significant part of their future strategy on offense.

Gaskin (7th round) will be our Burkhead (6th round)
Ballage (4th round) will be our White (4th round)
Drake (though picked in the 3rd round) will be our Michel (late 1st round)

I like the addition of the FB. James Devlin from the Pats was actually undrafted. So we know we will be looking at a 3 RB rotation and Cox doing the blocking at about 30% of the time (rather than the TEs).

Like I said before: we have to get used that we won't have always the pretty picks but more useful pick which fit a certain system.
