In some ways for Dolphins followers, this NFL season felt like an appetizer to the 2020 NFL Draft and Miami’s 14 picks, including three in the first round and two in the second. Most of the focus on Monday was on the potential of landing Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa at No 5, but other needs also will be addressed that first day.

An early look at the options:

If Tua is there at 5 and someone wants to trade up for him would you trade down? If so, how much would it take?
 
Depends what the Dolphins think on the medical, if they clear him I would think he is the pick, if not, I would trade out only if I didn’t have to move down much in the first round.

I would still want one of those top players in the draft..
 
Yeah I could easily see miami out of the wr early pick market.

can’t say I’m a fan of that listed 18 pick they have from Boise edge. Maybe after he tests Miami will pass. No backside contain no real range meh atblete good at the poa as long as it’s in front of him but I’m not paying that price for that.

Espenosa ehh schematically in this scheme maybe.

wierd to me that Barry says Detroit’s a shoe in for the left tackle. I could see Washington even turning in the thomas card at 2
 
Lots of good players in the draft. If we could get Tua, Ruggs, and an OL or pass rusher that would be amazing

But Ruggs probably doesn’t make it to 18... and i doubt he’s the pick anyways with Parker and Williams and Wilson looking better but damn it would be a nice pick

I’m interested in the dude from LSU, seems like kind of a hybrid guy? Curious on what some of the guys here think about him. I could maybe see him moving around as a 34 rusher or dropping into coverage? How do the other guys stack up? Epenesa? Gross Matos? Okwara? I haven’t done a ton of research into these guys yet

OL- Center- we need to grab Humphrey or Biadasz imo, but if we come away with any o line regardless of position i wont be upset
 
If Miami follows NE's model they won't use high picks on offensive linemen, maybe late first round, but I would be surprised if they used one of the first two picks on an OLineman. But who knows?:shrug:
 
I think chiasson is a hybrid rush/drop lb. his rush tools are raw and the off the ball aspect of lb would be a work in progress but I could see a role for him in this scheme. That pick would be more about where he is in 2 years but I do think there’s a fit for him with what we do and he’d give us more range than kwon in some packages with edge rush be it blitz or overload or even occasionally vs a tackle/games up front win.

im higher on him than some people I guess but I’m projecting what the player is in 2 years

it’s just such a huge need in my opinion, as is an edge, tankathon mock has use taking a WR with that second first rd pick- I just don’t see it. I hope not at least.
 
Only the Dolphins would pass on Drew Brees and a left-handed Drew Brees over medical. ****ING SURROUND THE LEFT-HANDED BREES WITH TALENT AND ASK HIM NOT TO RUN!!! IF YOU CAN'T SURROUND HIM WITH TALENT THEN **** OFF!!
 
Added the first 2nd rounder also because it's almost like a late 1st round pick:

1a. Tua Tagovailoa....QB
1b. Jonathon Taylor..RB
1c. Tylor Biadasz......Center
2a. Curtis Weaver....DE

Just afraid they will be giving up at least one of those picks if Tua is their guy.
 
Can't see the Fins using all 3 # 1's.

Would not surprise me to see multiple trades involving their 1st rounders, maybe all 3 IF the QB they want is not there at 5.
 
Which I'm fine with. We built draft capital for a reason...... use it on our future QB and don't look back.

I understand, let’s hope they add some line players in FA though, since you know going in to the draft that you may have less draft capital then you do today.
