Good take. I don’t know why we have so much trouble with OL in the draft though - that’s been the Achilles heel for quite some time now. Agree w the job done to get more swings at the plate - fair enough
Didn't we get more "swings at the plate" 2 years ago?
Who was calling the shots then, Flores?
Who was calling the shots that led to our fewer draft picks this year, Flores?
It's easy to over generalize and say it's the Dolphins fault historically.
Why not do some basic analysis and see where the problem actually is!
As you can see from above, the problem for the last 2 years was Flores.
When the Front Office was coupled to a coach who could analyze his player needs better, we did better in the draft, even with fewer high draft picks. This happened because our new HC coach really did know what he was asking for on the Offense and our existing Front Office made it happen via the draft and Free Agency.
We may even get some "unanticipated" benefit from players the fans have written off because our new coaching staff feels we can get more from them.
It seems to me we have a lot of reasons to be happy and little, if any, to be sad about because our new HC and his revamped and expanded coaching staff know what they are doing.
To put it bluntly, the only problem I see for our Offensive line is that they are going to develop a reputation for overpowering other teams' defenses. Wait a minute, that's an advantage, not a problem.
You guys were starting to get in my head, but I have recovered - LOL
