The mock drafting for me hahaha having to wait til 102 to pick anyone is so frustrating lol. In a good sense thou there always seems to be a few LBs to choose from at that spot. If we address center in FA (which I would adore Tretter) and have the glaring need remaining at MLB who would you target at 102 in April?
 
I know where you're coming from lol. I love watching the draft but this year won't be as good especially day 1 & 2, we have wait until the back end of the 3rd for our 1st pick. But saying all that we got Hill for a steal I think and I'll take it for 1 year
 
We could have only prayed to have gotten someone half as good as Tyreek with the 29th overall pick, much less the rest that we gave up.

Could be the best trade in Dolphins history. This off-season feels different. We legitimately got better in areas of need.

The draft is one of my favorite times of the year, so this year is going to be a bit harder not picking first until the end of the 3rd round. haha. But the trade off of having a superstar player like Tyreek Hill on the team is very much well worth it.

Also, honestly there are not really any glaring holes on this team. We could always use more help at linebacker and offensive line, but there is no hole that I am really concerned about. No matter who they pick, I will be very happy if they use one of their picks on Matt Araiza.

No picks until the third round but instead they get Tyreek Hill. I will happily take that situation any day and hope they get a good player in the third round.
 
Draft day will be less exciting for me, but I wouldn't change what we did. I'd been advocating moving #29 for a T or WR since the end of the season. My only slight disappointment is that I was hoping Breece Hall would fall to us at #50. But the RB draft is deep. In my mocks since the trade I sometimes get James Cook at #102 or I get Pierre Strong Jr (seems like a Mostert clone to me) at #125 or #158.

I want in order, Brandon Smith, Malcom Rodriguez, or Demarco Jackson.
 
The best player drafted with the 29th pick in the draft in the past 5 years was TE David Njoku and he has been average at best. None of the other players selected with the 29th pick in the draft the past 5 years are starters on their teams.

If the Dolphins had been trading a top 5 pick and additional picks for Hill, that might have been a risk but trading the 29th pick, the 50th pick and 3 additional mid round picks over the next 2 years is a home run trade for the Dolphins, IMO.

I see absolutely no down side with this trade except for the impact it will make long term on the Dolphins cap situation but it’s not my money, so why worry about it.

I'll probably annoy many here, but I see no value in mocks before FA has ended for just the reason of TH and others. Yeah, I get the fun of something to do from SB till the draft.
That said, I agree, this will be a bummer year for Mia fans

As you pointed out, mock drafts before free agency are for nothing but fun but they are usually irrelevant for the teams who are the big spenders in free agency. Since those teams frequently try to fill they bigger holes on the roster in free agency and not in the draft.
