1st WR Chris Brazzell Tenn
2nd OT Trevor Goosby TX
3rd CB Keith Aubrey II AZ St
3rd TE Jack Endries TX
3rd FS Jalon Kilgore SC (I would play him at SS)
4th NB/FS Tao Johnson Utah
4th RG DJ Campbell TX (Holland comp pick)
5th TE Oscar Delp UGA
7th QB Joey Aguilar Tenn
7th RB Quintrevion Wisner TX
7th TE Jaren Kanak OU

Expect fringe FAs and some UDFAs at LB, pass rusher, DL and STs

I know there's a heavy tendency for TX offensive players but they're all high floor because of their experience in the system and familiarity with Ewers and the offense he executed for 3 seasons and high ceiling because of their athleticism.

Plus I think Manning and TX will have a rebound season next year and we're going to end up picking him near the middle of the first in 2027.

Miami's largest loss heading into 2026 will be Hill, no doubt. Chris Brazzell is the perfect complement to Waddle and gives Tua a tall target he can see down field. Joey Aguilar is worth it just simply because of the season he's having through his deep connection with Brazzell, his solid build and his willingness to take hits.

The TE room sucks and they're all on short term contracts, FAs or ERFAs, therefore the TE recurrency.

Brazell may end up the only instant starter but this is a foundational draft, adding depth and potential development at most positions of need.

Is Brazzell more of a late 1st, early 2nd? I do agree he'd be a perfect pairing with Waddle.

I think Lemon will slide and Brazzell's combine performance will put him above Tate who I think will test poorly.

I think that if we don't, Brazzell will still be the 2nd WR taken.
 
I don't think Albert Wilson-level-skillset is worthy of a high first. Luther Burden went from #1 WR on everyone's book to a 2nd rd pick last year. I think that's what's gonna happen to Makai Lemon.

Brazzell already has better stats than Tate this year and that is in the SEC with a QB signed off the street after their incumbent bolted unexpectedly in the offseason.

Throw better measurables on top and it's an easy choice for me.

Brazzell gets open deep, on average deeper than Tate and by a larger margin.

Too many of Tate's deep catches are contested for my taste.

Brazzell is almost always clear from his guy deep and only really contests intermediate throws.

I like my guys to be able to get open deep clear from any DBs.

I like Brazzell. He reminds me a little bit of Chris Chambers.

Too risky for me in the first round. The risk is high on 6-5 WRs. I don't think we can afford risks. Some other teams can.

Dude runs a sub 4.5 40 and is a great route runner.

The risk with larger receivers is usually not being able to beat the jam since they have a larger contact area and a higher center of gravity.

Brazzell has some pretty good releases. Go check the tape. The main reason why Brazzell is good at beating the jam is because he's also a willing blocker. DBs don't sell out when they engage with him because they don't want to be blocked either.

I'd be just as happy with Tyson or Tate but I happen to think Brazzell is better that Tate.

I know, we are hoping for another Randy Moss. But, I would not do it. Moss or not, I don't care.
Maybe, if he runs 4.25, or 4.3 like Moss, then we know he will outrun any defense and go up and get it. Then we can alley-oop all Sunday. Make him a deep threat like Metcalf was.
We need a QB for that too.
 
Cisse will likely be a 1st rounder.

Or early 2nd at the latest.
