If no QB, trade down is ok if we hit OL heavy. Otherwise I take SimmonsI still want to sit at 5 or even trade down

I have no problems with those positionsWoah.... Calm down Big Boy !!!!!
Are you Mike Tannenbaum?
Our needs are many!!!
My Three round mock:
# 5 Tua or Herbert - QB
# 18 Josh Jones - OT
# 26 Austin Jackson -OT
# 39 Jonathan Taylor - RB
# 56 Chase Claypool - WR
# 70 Ashtyn Davis - S
You may have to use some of our later draft picks to move up in the rounds to get a couple of these players.
Seems reasonableI have to confess, I have a hard time understanding your position. Not singling you out, as I've seen a lot of posts advocating what you suggest. I just don't get it.
If I thought a guy was likely to be the franchise QB my team has been searching for for decades, and I had the draft capital to do so, I'd trade up in a heartbeat to guarantee that the guy was mine. If I didn't think the guy was that elusive guy we've been searching for, I'd grab one of the really good players available at #5 like Simmons, Okudah, Brown, Lamb, Jeudy, or one of the tackles. In fact, I might even trade down a little bit to secure an even bigger draft haul, including one of the other decent QBs available. Not picking a direction and standing pat, with the hopes that this particular guy happens to fall to #5 makes the least sense to me of all the options. Just seems like a wishy-washy approach to me.
If I were a Dolphins fan, I believe that I'd want the powers that be to make a decision as to whether Tua, or even another of the QBs, was the guy they think could be the franchise guy or not. And then proceed with action based on that decision. But that's just me.
Ok hear me out. Why not give up 5 this year a 2021 first and a 2022 first to move up for burrow or tua. Doesnt hurt Miami at all. They'll still have 3 first rd picks this year, a first round pick next year from the tunsil trade and in 2 years we wouldn't sweat a first round pick with a franchise QB and all the talent surrounding him.
Pull the trigger Grier get your guy! Fingers crossed for TUA tho.
We all know for sure Dion Jordan was a total bust but we don't know for sure that charles.....ahhh who am I kidding?unless those picks are a Charles Harris/Dion Jordan type miss then it doesn't really hurt us.
Whoopi. I'm sure the fanbase will be energized over a player that barely moves the needle.I agree, sit tight at five. If we do not get a QB, we get Summons
Now I know why your ID name is raving. I think you should add mad to the end of it. Yeah, who needs a QB when you have a guy like Patrick Mahomes in your conference for at least the next decade? No problem. Miami will just roll out their "system" at him.All 4 of the top rated QBs in this draft are gonna be busts - don’t reach...
QB craze is designed to make teams bust.
go For a couple of second tier qbs this year...
no QB the dolphins pick is gonna play this year any how....
people going on about how important QB is hogwash...
it’s all about the system...
1st round picks save you $ against the cap...
the Dolphins need to focus on offensive line - that’s where the value is early...
if Simmons is there at 5 you take him...if not take a top tackle...
then trade down at 18 pick up 1 or 2 more top 100 picks...
I trust Flores - he’s not gonna be a Philbin type jackass and reach for a jackass bust like no pocket awareness Tannehill...
people get SO wrapped around the axis for these rookies who we have ZERO clue if they can play with the big boys...
That's how franchises win championships. Trade up for a defensive tackle.IMO stay at 5 and see what happens. Our wild card pick is 18. Depending on how the board falls draft day I could see us using it to trade up or down. If a guy like Derrick Brown hangs around longer than expected I could see us trading up. Put him at NT and watch him dominate the trenches. Would also provide a huge boost to Wilkins as well.
Whoopi. I'm sure the fanbase will be energized over a player that barely moves the needle.
All this noise about trading up for Tua is nothing more than his agent getting the word out as they are probably worried about him falling due to the teams not being able to have their own doctors look at him. I hope we take him at 5 but I dont buy for a second that we would have to move up to get him.
