Lamp rd1 then Willis in the 2nd solve multiple issues
If its an awesome guard that can also play tackle and possibly center?...no problem.
We need that kind of versatility with Pouncey and his injury history.
I'm all for improving the defense...but I damn sure don't want to see another season of poor O-line play and Tannehill getting abused.
I see protecting Tannehill as priority one.
Protect Tanny at all costs.
Last year they said their top pick would be a starter...this year i dont recall hearing that from them...
Hmmm rotational de

“For us, it’s really guys who love to compete and love football,” he said. “Nowadays, with the money and what the kids are getting paid, you see a lot of these juniors leaving school early. A lot of times now you’re not sure if it’s the right reason why they’re leaving.
By the time the draft arrives, the actual selections are fairly simple. Grier has the players prioritized, and the pick is mostly determined by what the teams ahead of the Dolphins do. As their slot approaches, the team has a list of five players it wants and some of those disappear in the preceding picks.
“It figures itself out,” Gase said. “It’s really kind of easy. If anybody makes it out to be more than that, they’re full of it.”
The trio of Gase, Grier and Tannenbaum consider positions of need, but their picks in the first two rounds — Nos. 22 and 54 overall this year — are so valuable that they are compelled to take the best player available. If it comes down to two similar prospects and one would fill a key spot, obviously that player gets the nod.
“They all want to get to that second contact, but for us, that’s not important. We want to hear, ‘I love football. This is what I want to do.’ It’s really that and football intelligence.
“Especially in the first two rounds, I think you always have to take the best player,” Grier said. “That wasn’t our No. 1 need because we had (Branden Albert), but we can’t pass on this guy.”

Blake the great said:How does that not make sense?
Have you not seen our defense collapse at the end of so many games since Tannehill has been here?
If you believe what they're pitching as the philosophy....it's going to be BPA in rounds 1 and 2.
