It’s getting a bit salty around here in the lead up to the draft as the pressure mounts. To lighten the mood a bit, taking into account your own personal history with the team, what is the thing the team could do that would immediately make you go “WOW, THAT IS SO DOLPHINS”. It doesn’t have to be bad, it doesn’t have to be good, it just has to be one of those things your friends who are fans of others teams would say, “Bro, the Dolphins always does stuff like that!”

I’ll start off with a few:

1) The Dolphins get cute, ignore QB at 5 and try to get a QB in rounds 2 or later because it’s not like it’s an important position or anything.

2) The Dolphins draft Herbert...which won’t bother me on its own if they prefer him...but then they proceed to state all of the reasons they drafted him as personality traits and non-football things. GTFOH. Get your QB based on how he performs. I don’t want to draft Herbert’s family.

3) The Dolphins draft Tua...and then proceed to basically ignore the O-line in the draft. Jesse Davis will totally work out, guys! Trust us!

What about you?

Drafting Herbert would be the most Dolphins way this draft could go.
 
Draft Henry Ruggs at 5, tell Dolphins fan he was drafted because he has a great family and can return kicks. Then panic when you are bombed on social media for not selecting a QB, forcing you to take Jake Fromm two rounds early at #18 after Tua, Herbert and Love are off the board.
 
Trading up to 2, or 3 and drafting Herbert

That is honestly the single thing I am the most worried about. Tua scares me because of the injury issues and I think Herbert is the next Trubisky, but I can support taking either at #5 given our needs. the thought of blowing draft capital to move up for either keeps me up at night.
 
I'll be generic...

#1 Franchise (Krispy Kreme excluded!) QB (absolutely no Jenny Craigers!)

#2 Franchise (BurgerKing excluded) OT (aka "where's the BEEF!)

#3 Franchise (McDonalds excluded) RB (absolutely no McRibs!)

#4 ALL-Pro (TacoBell excluded) WR! (hot and spicy!)

#5 ALL-Pro (Fatties excluded) OG (thinking corn fed...)

#6 ALL-Pro (Metros excluded) S (bonus with facial scars!)

#7 Stud (Palominos excluded) DE (minor assualts welcome!)

#8 Derrick (Freaking) Brown (100% terrorist!)

#9 More of the above!

Trade up for Herbert, draft Chaisson, ignore the deepest WR class in ages.

Actually, making any trades during the draft, period. Can't remember the last one the Dolphins got the best of.
