You are Dolphins GM and you are on the Clock at pick 14. Based on the moves made by the team in Free Agency to this point, what is your pick? These 6 players have made it to 14 and are the remaining top 6 on your board.
Devante Parker WR
Eric Kendricks ILB
Trae Waynes CB
Landon Collins S
La'el Collins OT/G
Todd Gurley RB
 
Eric Kendricks ILB

But then we need a WR but also DB and Guard also important.......
Oh hell this is another time I'm glad its not my decision, I just don't know enough about these guys....I like Perryman too

Just want to be assured that when a RB gets past the line of scrimmage we don't see a trail of bodies
bouncing off his dust like way to often last season......

We need a shut down corner and we should go with Trae Waynes if he is there. If he is not there and Parker is then take Parker but I would take Waynes first
 
Parker, unless Miami takes one of the other two top receivers (I personally prefer Parker though). With Parker, Miami gets another weapon, with enough speed to go deep, and enough height and size to be a redzone target.

In getting Suh, whomever lines-up at M-LB, will be more effective, the Corners will have more help from the pass-rush, so picking a LB or DB early would not help the team as much as a premium WR.

Taking a Guard that early would be a waste when later in the Draft (If your a good GM) you can find many Guards that will succeed just as well.

Finally taking a RB (understandably one of this drafts best) would be an overkill when Miami has an up and coming young player in Miller, and no matter who they draft, that player will have to split minutes on the field with miller.
 
i guess the top rated long snapper is already gone...sucks for us
 
As I've said in the draft forum, I think we go Scherff and if he isn't available we go Waynes...based on your list I think we go Waynes.

I'd prefer the Phins move up for Cooper, but that would be tricky.
 
This is assuming we add no other FA's? I wish I knew what was left in the FA market. Without any of that info, probably Parker.

Not really that tricky . . . it pretty much takes the first rounder in 2016. In 2013 when we traded up for Dion, that draft was pretty weak in general so the value was less to move up. We won't be as fortunate in this draft to get such a good deal on a trade up.

If you feel that Cooper gets you to another level with your QB . . . then #14 and we'll say #24 (playoff draft pick) for Cooper doesn't seem that unreasonable.

Of course it's not my job on the line either.
 
The way Tannebaum stresses the importance of corners, if Waynes is still on the board, would be surprised if he got past the Dolphins.
 
I say Waynes. We can get a good wr in the second probably. Maybe even Devin Smith falls that far. Or Jaelen Strong.
