Just a copy & paste from rotoworld, who cites the herald so who knows..



Signing a slow-footed 32-year-old in Greg Jennings won't change the Dolphins' draft plans very much. The Miami Herald says they'll try to trade back in the first round, but are going to add more wideout talent at some point to a depth chart that now reads Jarvis Landry, Kenny Stills, Jennings. The Herald says the Dolphins' top nine prospects are (in no particular order) Amari Cooper, Kevin White, DeVante Parker, Breshad Perriman, Nelson Agholor, Phillip Dorsett, Dorial Green-Beckham, Devin Smith and Sammie Coates.
 
I'd love to get a big body WR like DGB in rd2 if Parker is gone by 14.
 
I'm just worried we are feeling forced to take a receiver? Don't overdraft a guy just cause. I'd rather get Kendricks than take Perriman or Agholor at 14

Truly though, no one has a clue what we will do
 
When a position is deep in a draft you can often afford to wait until the second round and still get a high end talent at that position. We did that last year with Landry in a relatively deep WR draft. I'm hoping we use our 1st round pick on another position that we might not be able to add starting talent later in the draft, unless one of the elite WRs fall. Trading back and still getting Kendricks would be ideal.
 
if you see a guy like DGB in the 2nd you run to the podium and know that you made a great pick, regardless of how he pans out. That's top 5 receiver potential.

Personally, Id love a trade back and pick up Algohor
 
I've hated the idea of drafting Perriman in the first round ever since his pro day 40 time. The guy was considered a mid round pick until then, and to me when watching him play he doesn't play to that game speed either. With all of that being said if they drafted Perriman I wouldn't be as upset now that Jennings is on the team because Perriman could take a back seat and learn a lot from these wr's rather than having to rely on him right away like we would have to do with Landry, Stills, and Matthews as our only other wrs
 
looks like once you get past that smurf dorsett the dolphins are coveting size as the final piece in the wr core...makes sense...can't say i blame them

although unless rishard matthews is on the outs miami has 4 ready to go wrs who will be active on game days now and expected to produce

Would be nice to see a trade down into the 20's pick up a 3rd rounder and jump on ILB Kendricks. 2nd round target DGB.
 
LOL - OK that's 9 names but don't be surprised if it is Funchess from Michigan. Some of the WRs named look very impressive but to have a bit more balance in the group of receivers, it would be nice to have a really big target - like a 6'5" monster with huge safe hands. And yes, being a Wolverine isn't going to hurt.
 
Doesn't make sense why they would waste a high pick on a WR now in the 1st round. Jennings, Stills, Landry, and Matthews. Even Hazel is looking at PT.

You add a rookie into the mix and whats the lineup then? Are they going to trade Matthews? I don't think so, he has the potential to be the best WR on the roster next to Landry if he ever gets his head right. He's like a mini Brandon Marshall if they ever play him enough.

This has been one of my biggest issues with Perriman as well. I did see it in one of his highlight clips when he sprung free in the middle of the field, but it isn't a constant in his play. I think this is the issue that caused the connection issues with RT and Wallace. Wallace didn't use his speed consistently as he was constantly trying to juke the defender to get open rather than just run a good route and be at your spot when the ball gets there. Agholor's speed is a constant and I would rather have him over Perriman any Sunday of the year.

DGB would be exciting and all but have you heard this guy speak ?

He's dumb as rocks ..... I think he's borderline retarded . At his combine interview he was answering nonsense that had nothing
To do with the question .

Truly don't know what to think about this guy .

Huge safe hands lol. Funchess is a ball dropping machine.
