Phins will get to see some of the 2021 Draftees up close
The Miami Dolphins had an ugly end to the 2020 Season, but they’ve started the 2021 Season about as good as you could expect. With a critical season coming and four draft picks in the Top 50 selections, getting named as one of the two coaching staffs in this year’s Senior Bowl is a huge advantage. This is especially helpful because Dolphins Head Coach Brian Flores was a scout early in his career. Any extra edge will go a long way because they need to beat the good teams next year, so this was surprising and good news.
Senior Bowl doesn’t have all the top talent, though
For the most part, this extra knowledge and familiarity with the seniors won’t help Miami make a better choice with the 3rd Overall pick because the elite college players usually don’t wait until they are seniors to turn pro. Although, WR DeVonta Smith is a senior and bucks this trend and he does fit a need for Miami. While I wouldn’t pick Smith with the 3rd Overall pick because Penns LB Micah Parsons is more my taste, Phins might think otherwise. I know plenty of Phins fans would disagree with me on this, but I see Middle Linebacker as a huge need… even bigger than a receiver.
Still, you can bet with the pay per head bookie sites that this extra knowledge will go a long way throughout the rest of the draft.It will certainly help Miami finding another offensive linemen if they are looking for one. Three quality seniors will be on hand in interior linemenCreed Humphrey, Oklahoma, andTrey Smith, Tennessee, and Cole Van Lanen a left tackle for Wisconsin.
I have my eyes on OG Trey Lance as a second-day pick. Lance is a massive man at 6’6” 330 lbs who can move players in the run game. Erick Flowers was pretty good, but I don’t see him as a long term answer. Now, I don’t know how the Phins see Hunt long term. They could draft a Tackle and move him inside because it would help some of his weaknesses. Of course, they could be happy with what they have and not go with an O-linemen until late.
I’m hoping the Phins trade back and acquire more picks. You can’t have too many top picks and the salary cap will either be stagnant or decrease. This will add even more value to rookie. The whole QB talk at three isn’t my taste either. Some love T Peneo Sewell at #3 and others prefer WR WR Ja’Marr Chase over Smith. It’s all a long way off, plenty of time for that down the road.
The good news is that the Dolphins Front Office will get a slight edge in this draft… and I like that. Go Phins!!!
Are you watching the national championship game tonight? The experts will not give fields any respect. Fields has injured ribs from the Clemson game last week. Trevar and Fields are clear the number 1 and 2 NFL 2021 QB. Maybe early 20s the others QBs maybe.
No, I didn’t, Steve. I will at some point. You are our best college guy… Jimmy ain’t too bad either. Me, I do alright in clean up research. I’m getting on to the tape this week. Been super busy and working on a long Tua vid… I don’t want to take a QB early except for Trevor,,, who won’t be avaiable. I’d love a trade back and somehow to grad Wilson if he drops with the extra pick. I think we certainly need another quality QB option. Tua has a history of injuries and his arm looked weak and he looked slow this year. Will it improve two years removed? If not Tua won’t make it… and even if it does, he has a ton of work in anticipation, location, and reading to do. Kid is so amazing and smart and a hard worker that if he weren’t I’d call him a bust. But, it’s only because of those elite inner qualities I still have hope. Miami can’t bank on that though… or this regime will live and die by how Tua rebounds.
Lynn is an interesting choice… good one really. HC exp and a quality guy and OC. I’m getting closer to wrapping up a massive film study of Tua against the Bills… I’m sorry to say, the longer I study him, the less confident I feel. Better tools will help of course, but Tua is far, far from where he needs to be. Now, some healing and time to grow could change it all… but, Steve, Tua is a loooooong way off from where he needs to be. And I’m just talking about a slightly above average QB… I’m not talking about elite.
I agree 100% get down and dirty with these players.
These guys are not seniors Three solid lunch box running backs for the Dolphins!
1st round RB Najee Harris Trade back a few spots https://youtu.be/2eBrChtC4rA
2nd 3rd round Trey Sermon Ohio States
3rd 4th Javonte Williams North Carolina
This will illuminate the next 3 years of looking for running backs Sermon broke records held by Ezekiel Elliott and Eddie George en route to 331 yards and two touchdowns on 29 carries in a 22-10 win over Northwestern, and Ohio State needed every single one of those yards. It’s why he was the game’s MVP and why he’s earned OSU Offensive Player of the Game honors for the first time this season.
It’s why I love a trade back… but, I do really like Sewell and Micah. Smith could be amazing, but he is sooooo slight. He was nicked up in the college postseason too, I beleive. We have a ton of talented but fragile receivers already.

Miami had to have Tua
Brian Flores is still the man in my books. Now get Tua some weapons. I hope we hire Antony Lynn for Offensive Coordinator.
