PFF 7 round Mock

[xXwarXx]

13. Miami Dolphins: Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State
General manager: Wes Huber

Elliott checks all of the necessary boxes at pick No. 13 for Miami. Best player available, generational back, and Lamar Miller replacement. The steal of the draft to this point, Elliott will immediately step onto the field as one of the best blocking running backs in the NFL. The Dolphins add the most productive back in the draft after contact (3.61 yards after contact per attempt) who will improve Adam Gase’s offense in every dimension.

42. Miami Dolphins: Su’a Cravens, LB, USC
General manager: Wes Huber

Cravens provides Miami with a great deal of versatility. Cravens is an excellent run defender (third-best run stop percent versus Power-5 and fourth-best overall), can get to the quarterback (most sacks and second-most pressures facing the Power-5), and can deliver assistance at several positions.

73. Miami Dolphins: Maliek Collins, DI, Nebraska
General manager: Wes Huber

In order for the 4-3 defense to work, new DC Vance Joseph will need to contain the run. He gets that with Collins and adds a 3-technique that possesses pass rushing skills of his own (top-16 in pass rush productivity during both of the last two seasons).

107. Miami Dolphins: David Morgan II, TE, UTSA
General manager: Wes Huber

By adding Morgan, Miami will have a TE2 to combine with Ezekiel Elliott to greatly improve its overall blocking. Morgan produced a run-blocking production grade 43 percent higher than any other TE in the nation last season, allowing only four total pressures over the last two seasons as well as only dropping three passes (4.4 percent drop rate).

147. Miami Dolphins: Landon Turner, G, North Carolina
General manager: Wes Huber

Turner produced the highest run-blocking production grade on inside zone assignments among all of the guards we charted. Adam Gase utilized an inside zone-blocking scheme on nearly 50 percent of rushing attempts in Chicago last season, and Turner will immediately have an opportunity to step in and seize the starting position at left guard.

186. Miami Dolphins: Ronnie Harris, CB, Stanford
General manager: Wes Huber

Harris is a versatile coverage option who received little hype. Producing the 14th-best coverage production grade in the FBS last season, he will offer immediate passing-down work and the potential for much more.

Some newer names I haven't seen mocked to Miami.

Pretty rough. Have lower values on every pick through 4 rounds.

PFF sucks.

Pretty rough. Have lower values on every pick through 4 rounds.

I haven't watched any tape on the guys after the first 2 rounds. I like Elliot obviously and I like Cravens although not that high. I really don't see all this versatility stuff though that I've been hearing about non stop the last month or so.

 

[mr ed]

If it's Elliot in first then the 2nd pick damn well better be CB. But at that point I think the top 5 CB's will be gone in first to first few in 2nd.
Whats the better value RB (Elliot) in first plus CB 2nd or 3rd round or
CB (Jackson, Apple) in first and RB in 3rd or 4th round

 

[SF Dolphin Fan]

I like it. Elliott and Cravens 1-2 is very good value. Turner is a steal where he is mocked, but he seems more of a Dallas type player. Collins is interesting in R3.

 

[SCLSU Mud Dogs]

Horrible.

Got to watch some Maliek Collins, holy crap is he light on his feet for big boy, he's incredibly agile. Not sure whats up with lack of production this past year though.

Not a Collins fan. Average athlete with below average production. He and Valentine did lead a pretty good Run D, but you may be surprised to learn that Collins totaled just 10 tackles 4 TFL, and 1 sack more than Valentine over their careers. Outside of the obvious names I have Justin Zimmer, Dean Lowry, Trevon Coley, Connor Wujciack, David Dean, Quinton Jefferson, Matthew Ioannidis, Luther Maddy, Davion Pierson, Willie Henry, and Adam Gotsis all rated higher than Collins.

If we arent landing Hargreaves then I think you take Elliot and try to move up if Apple, Alexander or Jackson fall. Any of those 3 should be fine. Artie Burns in the second is realistic and would be great. Elliot is too complete a back to pass on if he's there, unless by some miracle Myles Jack falls.

 

[bcsupratt]

Cravens will be a stud.

I have him at 42 in almost every mock.

YeH I don't get how his production was so low.

But I think your underrating his athletism based on measurements. He can really move for his size.
